Victorian Christmas

We love going every year! It was freezing this year but so much fun! I love all the ice queens, giant candy cane, Santa, fried Oreos, the open fires, and the merry go round! It's so festive!

Park Avenue Pumpkins and VSU Homecoming

We made a little trip to Valdosta yesterday....we stopped by PAUMC to get a large pumpkin (which I have big plans for) and then we went to the homecoming parade! So much fun! I love this little tradition we have! 

Beach, Mountains, Football Games, and Blakely's 10th birthday

I'm gonna do a full beach recap soon! But this is what we've been up to lately.

The gulf!

North Georgia Mountains-burts farm and amicalola falls

Football and the fair!

Celebrating our sweet golden pup! Blakely turned 10! 

And more football! 

10 months old!

Anna Claire turned 10 months old on September 24th!

She sometimes uses the softest voice to Whisper her words.

She makes a Little motor boat sound A LOT!

She also makes Monster sounds. Haha

She has been Standing with no hands.

And Moving from thing to thing. Crushing I guess!

Sucking her thumb!!

She always Looks all around as soon as you pick her up from her nap or in the morning, like what's going on, what did I miss?

She stands in the pack n play and crib and her eyes come right above the rails!

Loves her kitchen toy and elephant popper!

Puts everything in mouth. Everything.

Got 4 upper teeth all at once.

Crawls and climbs up stairs.

Loves peek a boo and patty cake.

Loved the beach and pool water at our trip over Labor Day. Took fistfuls of sand and crawled right through it!

Started at a new daycare because Mimi has breast cancer. It was heartbreaking for our family and hers. Such a big change!

Had first runny nose for about a day.

Happy all the time! 

Drank from a sippy cup on the first try.

Eats any and all table food. 

Takes people's food! She can get it sooo fast!

Likes baby dolls! 

I think she's gonna be a biter. She bites cough cushions and my toes! Lol

Loves Bath time! And kicking those legs!!

We sing her a special song, "Do you know Anna Claire?" 

Mamas favorites: 

her breath (it smells so sweet!)

Her sniffing and scrunching her nose

Loud breathing when excited

Oh Anna Claire Elizabeth. You are just 

the most precious, sweetest little thing. 

Shoes, first day of fall, Jax, dates and fun!

Anna Claire finally got a pair of shoes! Red ruffled Mary Janes seemed like the perfect ones!

Happy Fall! Anna Claire looked precious in her sweater dress to celebrate the new season! Her birth season!

We had so much fun in Jax with our best friends, shopping and celebrating Lauren's bday!

Other than that we've been busy with church, ballet, family dates, and fun at home!

I love this time of year!
