Fall 2017

Milly Jean is 10 months old today! She now has her two front teeth (6 total). She is trying lots of foods and doing well with eating. She loves Greek yogurt and cheese puffs! MJ now waves "hey" to others, pulls up on EVERYTHING, tries to climb up our stairs, and loves to dance and play. She enjoys being outside and playing on the trampoline with her brother and sister (and Mommy or Daddy). I can't believe she will be one in 2 months!!

My Pumpkin...

She's already trying to hide her age, but Milly Jean is 11 months old today! Time flies when you are having fun! Life is "Fab-BOO-lous" with MJ. She is learning to blow kisses. She waves at people and smiles everywhere we go (or does a blank stare lol). She crawls fast and chuckles when you are chasing after her, especially if she is trying to sneak to the stairs. She will find anything she can to put in her mouth! She is eating more and more table food with her six little teeth, and she is cutting 4 more right now! She enjoys bath time and swinging outside. MJ just finished 3 rounds of shots due to another ear infection, so we are heading in the direction of tubes. Her voice has been squeaky and raspy the past few days, so she sounds pitiful! Other than those things, she has still been so happy and sweet! She will be ONE before I can blink!

We love going to Mitchell Farms every year! This time, GiGi came along, and it was MJ's first time. We picked a pretty day, and it was overcast and not HOT! The kids still love the bouncy pillow the most I think. MJ enjoyed the train, and I loved the fried green tomatoes and watching them play! 

I can't believe we have another redheaded little girl to wear this onesie Mrs. Linda made for Avery!

Decorating Pumpkins...

HINDS Fall Festival...

This year, Avery chose to be Wonder Woman which was pretty popular with the movie out. Bryce wanted to be a doctor or a "Superhero and a doctor," so one time he wore just scrubs and another time he wore his scrubs over his Captain America costume. Milly was a sheep and Raggedy Ann!

Trunk or Treat (So Others Can Eat) 

Here's our smallest pumpkin in another one Mrs. Linda made for Avery...

Halloween in Country Place...

Bryce's buddy, Edison, spent some time at our house when his mom gave birth to his sweet baby sister, Sophie. 

Uncle Mitch and his crew came in for Thanksgiving, so the kids got to play, and we got to go out for dinner with Mitch and Becca while G baby-sat one night. 

Bryce's work at school....love my boy. 

Thanksgiving Feast at Hinds...

Turkey in Disguise...

Avery's Pocohontas Project...

Our Pearl Pirates won STATE this year! We were so excited! Jake went to the game, and the rest of us watched from home. Avery and I committed to a Batson event, so we missed the send off. The night before, we made a sign and goody bag for our quarterback and neighbor, Jake, and the kids took it to his house. He sent a sweet video to them thanking them for it, and said he hoped to bring home a trophy. His wish came true! Go, Pirates! 

After Thanksgiving, Burney returned and brought the kids Christmas jammies. From start to finish the fall up to Christmas is my favorite time of year!

Sweet MJ got tubes after multiple ear infections, and she did really well. She has felt so much better! 

If there is a basket around, be sure that Milly will get into it!

I am certainly thankful for this life and all it has to offer...the good, the bad, the ugly, and the amazing! I feel so blessed to have my family healthy and happy!
