Swiped images from Aunt B and Mommie

Lunch at Aunt B's. Little did we know it was going to be yucky!!


An afternoon at Aunt B's playing with Charlotte and Frannie while enjoying the absolutely gorgeous fall weather here in Louisiana. Of course, Aunt B's new camera arrived and you guessed it, she needed to try it out!!



Charlotte loving up on Avery.



Frannie trying to love up on Riggs!!



I'm not sure about this Mommie! Is it okay to hang in this?



Yep, I like this swinging!!



Mommie, this is not so comfortable for me!



Thank goodness I'm out of that swing . . . I wanna play with Maggie!



My favorite yard snack . . . leaves!! They are a little crunchier than my puffs!



Okay, I'm still . . . quick, get the picture!!



I really like swinging!



Dearie says I'm handsome and she's always right!



Traveling to Birmingham with Mommie and Daddy!



I have to get a turn to have a picture on the trip to Birmingham.



We decided this was a fun place to play 'cause we can see outside really well!



Before the LSU v Bama game, Daddy's little cheerleader!



Mommie is teaching me to yell!!



Say what??



Mommie's little man is dressed for the game . . . cool dude with his polo and jeans!




Daddy is showing off my fill-in hair!



No, this man is not from Arkansas. A graduate of Yale law school and a wonderful husband. a great dad and my son-in-law. I'm sure there's a really good explanation for this digisnap but presently, I can't figure it!! LSU lost to Bama . . . connections???

Showing off a little

L'il Miss Avery Kathryn ready to crawl some more!



Now, Riggs has learned how to open the bottom drawer and pull stuff out! This could make things VERY entertaining for Mommie and Daddy!

Swiped photos from Aunt B!!

As you may notice, the quality of Aunt B's digisnaps is a little off 'cause her camera's decided to go haywire. And, the camera went to the camera hospital so it can get all better before the holidays get here! Aunt B's beside herself without the camera . . . its okay Aunt B! Mommie has a camera she can loan to you!!

But these images are still good enough to provide a couple quick glimpses into my darlings' actions!!



While over at Aunt B's last week, Riggs discovered Maggie's waterbowl and wouldn't stop playing with it. For those of you wondering what this little fella might "really like" for Christmas, here's your best clue!!



Avery, my little ham!! What do you mean smile? I'm busy eating!! How about a little smoochie??



How's this? Can you see everything in my mouth! How about my two new teeth!! I can play with them any time I want!!



I'm concerned here, you want pictures but no one's cleaning my face! I can't do everything!

Back in the world of functioning

Following a few days in the hospital and a week of recovery, getting back into my normal groove is proving slow! Its been a while since I've had either the energy or the time to get on with the blog and wouldn't you know . . . there are forty-seven bajillion things I have to tell about my Darlings! Needless to say, they are crawling everywhere (very well I might add!), teething (and, Avery's two bottom teeth are almost completely out as of October 20!), and developing precious little personalities! Suffice to say, I have to load images from my camera and steal what I can from Aunt B's blog to fill you in but I will do it!!

This weekend I ran over to see my darlings on both Saturday and Sunday. Saturday, I dropped off their little "have a happy Halloween" cards and Sunday I dropped off the package of "boogie" wipes that I'd forgotten on Saturday!!

Saturday afternoon / early evening, the Darlings had a few friends over for Halloween and trick or treating in the neighborhood. Aunt B snapped a few which I've swiped from her blog!



Cher l'il darlings in their giraffe costumes!!



BFF Ryker dressed as a duck!



The May Flowers, Charlotte and Frances, as . . . you guessed it! LSU Cheerleaders!!

As luck would have it, Sunday was the day that Mommie and Daddy decided to hang the swing that Aunt B had loaned 'em! From a mighty tall branch of the oak tree, Daddy managed to hang the swing and, Riggs was the first to give it a try!





Cher, he was laughing and giggling and just loving every moment in the swing!!




When it was Avery's turn, she was not-so-pleased with the notion of swinging (though she didn't cry, the grimace on her face said it all!). Course, she's still playing with her new teeth . . . either biting her bottom lip OR hanging her tongue out and over 'em!

Avery and Riggs are such blessings!

l'il giraffes for Halloween!!

Enjoy these little snippets of digital video and know that my darlings definitely know how to have fun!!
