Get down!

Tilt your head to the left and watch Zoey get down with her bad self!

This was during story time before bed. She just cracks me up. I love her so much!

My favorite is when she drops her arm and really gets into it. Silly girl.

Walking and Talking

Our little Zoey is now walking and talking *sigh*, she says dada now, when I tell to say mama she just continues to say dada. And I thought she was a momma's girl. She's just started to walk this week and she's been doing more and more every day. My little baby is no longer a baby. It's so sad. I love watching her grow up and become more independent but I'm going to miss her being a snuggle bug. Those were some of the best times. I'm trying to cherish every moment that we have and not be too weepy.

Here's a video we took of the first day she walked. Now she's doing more and walking longer distances. Soon she won't be crawling soon.

Pierre- The French LumberJack

On Friday we went to a halloween party and costumes were encouraged. I was just going to wear the halloweeen shirt that I made for me, but at the last moment decided to be a lumberjack. Here is what I came up with...












Pierre the French LumberJack, with the accent and all.

Happy Halloween






This was our first year trick or treating in Virgina and it was definately different than Idaho. At first we thought that maybe no one was trick or treating cuz' it was drizzling a bit but that was all. Well it turned out we just couldn't find any hot spots. We drove around for a bit until we found a townhome division and even then it didn't have that many lights on. But Ginger's only 3 so she didn't know what that really meant. She just wanted to knock on the doors and say trick or treat and get some candy. So that's what she did. She loved every moment of it. She was a witch, a super cute one. Zoey was a cute little lamb. The hood was a little to big so she held up the whole time. And I'm not kidding she literally held it up the WHOLE time. It was super cute. Halloween is so much fun when you have little kids who can enjoy it.

Dance

I signed Ginger up for this Music and Movement class they meet evey wednesday from 10-11 am. They dance a little and do a art project and it's only $30 a month so I went ahead and did it. And I couldn't be any happier with my decison. She LOVES it. The first class I couldn't leave. She went crazy when I left. :( poor girl. So I stayed and watched. She was a little shy but that's to be expected from her first class. I got a couple pictures from it. But they're a little blurry cuz' they moved around alot. She went to her third week of dance today and she didn't even have to tell me good bye. The teachers tell me she's participating more and more. And she's only asked for me once.



Getting ready to do their art project. It was a butterfly.
Skipping (more like running for Ginger)

Trick or Treat

So earlier last week I was taking the trash out (growl...) and I was about to throw away the gallon ice cream bucket but I decided last minute I would make Ginger's halloween trick or treat bucket. And I think it turned out pretty good. I pretty much spent the amount it would of taken to just buy one for the supplies but I've gotten imense satisfaction every time I look at it. And I think Josh likes it too. Ginger sure does. She can't play with it till trick or treat time.














The top of the bucket!! You put the treats in it here. Cute huh??

So it obviously has some flaws but not enough for Ginger to care and not enough for me to not be proud of it. For a first time ever project I LOVE IT!!

Ginger says...

As we were shopping in target the other day she decides to hide in the clothes, no big deal EVERY child has done that. But it bugs me. Even more so when she doesn't answer me and I end up screaming her name. Anyways I finally got her out of the clothes and tell her it's time to go she says "yes your highness" it even sounded a little sarcasmy.

Zoey coughs Ginger says "cover your mouth Zo-Zo"

Zoey is getting ready to chew on Gingers favorite blanket corner and Ginger says "that's my corner honey" in voice that you would use talking to babies.

I just thought those were to cute to not share them with everyone. There just might be more of these to come.
