A quick recap of November...

I'm pretty sure the whole month of November was a blur... but here's a quick recap....
MK - just chillin'
Harrison is ALWAYS messing with Millie - I feel like she looks scared in half the pictures I take of her... poor thing...
He also wants to hold her and "pet" her all the time.... I've tried to explain that she's not a dog... but I don't think he cares....
Corey's parents invited us to their church's bonfire - they had hotdogs and smores - it was a little chilly - but we had a great time!
Harrison got a giant pickle - so he was happy!
And MK sat bundled up in her cacoon near the fire - so she was happy
Harrison and Palmer - friends - even though their hats say otherwise! :)
Here's MK the next morning before her first trip to church

After Church I took Corey to the airport - he had to go out of town for Manager training - and I wasn't quite ready to stay home by myself for a week with no help... so we decided to spend a couple days at Mimi and G's then we headed out to Nana and Papa's. Here are a couple pictures of Mimi and Millie watching HDG play in the dirt....
Sweet Millie...
Crazy HDG! :)
One of his favorite things to do outside....
Making red velvet cupcakes with Mimi and G....
This was Millie's first smile caught on camera!!! I especially LOVE the bunny ears on the bouncy seat behind her!!!! HAHA!!!!

Wow... it's been a while....

Oops.... so it's kinda been a while since I've updated the blog... but I feel like this whole holiday season has been a blur! I'm so sad that the holidays are over - and at the same time I'm kinda glad... I feel like we can finally get back into a routine... and for that I'm happy. Anyway.... where did I leave off on this blog.... I think it was somewhere around Millie's week 2 (and now she's 11 weeks) so we have a lot to catch up on.... here goes....
After Nana left we had a week or so on our own... then we headed out to Mimi and G's for Halloween... but the day before Halloween we went to the Water's "farm" for an annual food and fun get together!
Uncle Bailey got a 4 wheeler... G and Harrison decided to take it for a spin... I think HDG looks pretty excited!

HDG playing in the sandbox....
HDG played so hard that when we finally got home he was OUT! Somehow poor G ended up with both the munchkins... he looks miserable... right?!?! :)

The next day was Halloween.....

At HDG's first Halloween we took a couple pictures of him with the pumpkins... we thought it only fair to do the same to MK....
Although she didn't really like it....
Then later in the day before trick or treating we carved some pumpkins...
Corey made a beautiful free hand owl.... I'm so proud!!!!
Then Harrison came out in his Buzz Lightyear costume - and caught a glimpse of his own reflection... he was so impressed he had to go get a look up close!! hahaha!!
Of course we had to play some trains before trick-or-treating!
Here's the once over before we leave for the evening - pretty cute!
Ok - so the Garner's neighborhood has a Halloween parade of all the kids in their costumes that ends with pizza at the club house.... this year - this was our AWESOME ride. The funny part was - we thought we were being super creative - however we weren't the only ones in a trailer being pulled by a 4wheeler... red neck or awesome??? I can't decide?!?!?
On our ride to the club house - we passed Mimi, G, and MK
HDG eatin' some pizza at the club house....
So funny story.... we took Harrison to the first house - and told him to ring the door bell and say "trick or treat" - so he went up there and did just that - and the guy dropped some candy in his bag... then Harrison looked in the bag and looked back up at the guy and started to cry.... apparently Harrison thought the first house you went to was suppose to fill up your bag - and he was very disappointed when it didn't happen! :) haha!
The people at this house weren't home - but Harrison and Aunt Brittoni decided to take a quick picture!! :) love it!
The pumpkins all lit up! The boys did very well!!!!

OH - and saving the best for last.... here are some funny pictures of Bailey on the 4 wheeler....
I'm not sure what's happening here.... but it looks like Brittoni is going after Bailey!!

Then here is Bailey being crazy......

Millie's first photo shoot

Here are some pictures I took of Millie the week Nana was here...

I actually crocheted this hat for her... I know - I know - I'm a grandma!
I love this face!

I know she's crying in this one - but I still think it's cute! :)



Ok - So these next photos kinda have a funny story... I saw a photographer use a little red wagon as a prop in a photo shoot one time - and I thought it would be cute to use Harrison's little wagon... however I think Harrison's little wagon was smaller than the one the photographer used (or Millie is WAY bigger than the baby in the pictures) because I'm pretty sure Millie didn't fit.... and she was not happy about it! :) haha!

this is actually the dress I came home from the hospital in...



So sweet!!!!
