Monkey Business: 22 Months Old

November 3rd: 22 Months Old

Happy Halloween, y'all!! This month has been so much fun, but has had its toll on my car. I literally abused the gas pump with how frequently we filled up, had two oil changes and one new tire. We have literally been beating the pavement between here and Lexington- visiting family, going to the zoo, and the biggest news of all... BUYING A HOUSE!! It is official. We are under contract for our dream home, and we are scheduled to close November 22nd! Pictures to follow in the November blog!

Best pictures we could get of these two in their Gigi creations!!

Highlights from the Month:

- Alyssa and Banks lived with us for 2 weeks!! This tiny little townhouse is full to bursting!

- Richard took her pulmonary boards.

- Halloween fun: Trunk or Treat at ECBC, Fall Festival at Gigi and PopPop's church, and Trick-or-treating.

- Under contract officially on 124 Alston Circle!! Back yard is amazing for our little adventurer.

- Running everywhere!! Learned to climb the climbing wall at the park.

Picture Highlights from the Month:

Daddy reading to Blakely. She loves to point to the animals and tell us what sound they make. She thinks bunnies say: "Hop-hop-hop-hop-hop." It is truly adorable.

These two babies were more like siblings this month than cousins. They played together, ate together, bathed together, lived together. They also became book and animal obsessed! Watch out if they get a hold of an animal book!

Starting to play appropriately with her kitchen. She puts the oven mitt on to handle pots and pans, stirs and tastes the food and loves to load up her grocery cart and stroll the "aisles."

Watch out y'all!! Blue light special on aisle 5!!

Trunk-or-treat with Daddy at ECBC

A little blurry, but it is so rare to catch that smile these days!! She is happiest, giggliest little girl, but the minute the camera comes out she refuses to smile!

Our little China Doll

We have finally figures out how to get these two to sit still together... hand them a pumpkin! Best photo shoot we have ever had together!!! Will be trying presents at Christmas!
