My First Snowgirl!

On Thanksgiving evening, we got a little bit of snow at our house. I think we may have topped out at an inch, maybe two. Emma was beside herself to get out and play in the snow on 'black friday'. So, Emma and Greg scraped together enough snow in the front yard to build this little guy. I couldn't believe how big she was for as little snow as we got! Emma thought her snowgirl needed a sweater, too, so maybe next time!

My New Friend

Emma has a new friend! Actually we all have a new friend, but Emma absolutely adores Cassie. She's RW's wife, so we get to see her every time we go to church and sometimes other places too! This picture was taken on Thanksgiving Day at the Ozburn's house.

Emma's Fun Hair

So.... I have that 3 year old. You know, the one who wants to be a princess. She is OBSESSED with LONG dresses and LONG hair. She is now very opinionated about what she wears and how short her hair is. Emma really wants to let her hair grow all the way to her waist. We'll just see about that, but for now, I guess we will let it grow a little and see how it looks. We fixed her hair this way because it was the only way I could get it to stay back. Turned out to be a fun hair style! I think I am really going to miss that short, crisp, little bob. It was so adorable around her little face. By the way, her hair only looks long the way I took the picture. It still isn't past her shoulders.

Snowball, anyone?

Last week, we had a little bit of snow. It was Emma's first snowball of the year, even though there was a little snow in October while we were gone. Emma was dying to go outside and scoot around. It's weird posting this, because today we were in the 70s. Crazy weather!

Chuckles!!!

McGinnis has reached a new milestone! He started laughing tonight. All I could get him to do on video is to chuckle, but it's really cute, in spite of the odd camera angle. He is 3 months old today, and is also drooling quite a bit. He LOVES for you to rub his gums with your finger. Are we beginning to teethe? I guess we'll find out. Emma had a tooth at 5 months, so we won't be surprised one bit if McGinnis does too.

I love my bath!

McGinnis just loves his bath! In fact, any time you take off his clothes he gets all excited like he's going to get in the bathtub. It's really cute! We let him splash as much as he wants to, and then he usually feels so good that he taps out right after he gets his pajamas on. It's so hard to believe how quickly he is growing! Emma loves to sit behind him and fix his hair. Look out little buddy, your sister is already using you as a guinea pig!

Happy Halloween!

Emma and her buddy, Connor

My first Halloween!

Last night we had "Trunk or Treat" at our church. The kids had a great time, of course. What's better than dressing up in their favorite costumes, getting lots of candy and running around with your friends in the dark? The cars in the parking lot were decorated with fun lights and decorations. One car even had teeth in the trunk, and the car was making really loud growling sounds! It was great. Our truck managed to look decent with lots of lights, until guess what?? Our battery died!! What better place for your battery to die than where lots of folks can jump your car off? Well, needless to say, we need to get a new battery before winter. My favorite part of the evening?? It wasn't freezing!!
