Our newest cousin

Over Thanksgiving we met Callum. He's five months younger than Maggie but already 2 pounds heavier! So chunky and cute. Maggie enjoyed patting his head (sometimes it was a little more like a smack). He was always a good sport.

A Happy Model

Maggie was very willing to pose for pictures in her new tutu Oma created.

Funny Faces

8 MONTHS

We tried taping the 8 month sign to Maggie this month. She was still not happy about the documentation of another month older.

Another "Bestibal"

2 Weeks ago we went took Carly to the Homecoming "Bestibal" at UT...the Festival was a lot more fun then the actual game. In case you can't tell from the pics, Carly is holding an "ewephant on a weash". She was mesmorized by the man who could create anything you asked out of a balloon. So, she came up with an elephant on a leash to challenge him. We have no idea where this came from...but she was determined to have him make her one. The balloon maker said that was the first request for an elephant on a leash he had ever received. He even had her say it three times because he liked the sound of it. Another great "bestibal"....

Raiding Granny's Closet

Carly and Fletcher were cracking us up modeling shoes and then later hats and gloves from granny's closet.

Oma's latest creation

Carly looked like such a big girl when she wore this new dress. She was so excited that she had to go show her old teacher Mrs. Kelly how grown up she looked.

Pumpkin becomes a Jack-O-Latern

Carly and Mike had fun carving the pumpkin. Carly designed the mouth, I did the nose, and Mike did the eyes. She was pretty happy with the results.
