Some October Update

October is here, and gone, but we had a great time!  October is BBQ festival time.  We did our first BBQ festival in Lexington NC.  During our trip we were able to visit family.  Tori and Dakota had a great time hanging out and talking giberish to each other.

Dakota couldn't remember if he should be scared of Tori.  The last visit was still traumatic.

Oh, a phone!

Hello!

Nana Ruth came up to visit.  Tori was very happy to see her.

The two obviously had a great time.

Tori and Dakota wandered off to play in the dog crates.

There's a new cot in town, and they both had a fun holding it down.

Just hanging out.

A giant exersize ball, what could go wrong?

Again, a cardboard box.  Life is so simple.

Mamaw the tickle monster came out.

Sleep?

And so ended a great day in Lexington!

Closet Makover

Tori gets a closet make over.  This was due mostly to the fact that her closet space was sacrificed for a new return air duct for the furnace / AC that was upgraded this summer.  We went all out.  Daddy spent lots of time building the bulkhead.  Once that was done, daddy could then make all the shelves.  Oh, it is even lit up with new low voltage LED lighting.  I wish my closet was this nice!

Tori is helping out, under supervision of mommy.

Daddy is stuck until Tori moves.  It was a standoff!

Uh oh, that's not a step!  Where is that supervisor?

Daddy was not amused.

All finished and moved back in!

Tori checking it out.  Seems to approve.

Yup, stuffed animal fits!

Happy girl once again!

September Update

Nothing special going on in September, but here are some random pictures taken during the month.

Tori got new boots!

Captain Bubble Beard.

We did convert the crib to a toddler bed.  It has a safety wall to keep her from rolling out.  It works by the way.

She can get in and out on her own now and she does very well with it.

Passed out!

Doing some reading.

Tori looking cute.

Ready to go to daycare!

Tori is showing off her dancing skills.

Ft. Knox visit

Late August Tori and daddy visited mommy while she was at school in Ft. Knox.  We had a great weekend.  We found a great park and spent some quality time out there playing.  What a beautiful day it was.

Running up and down the ramps is fun!

Hello up there!

Look at that hair!  Static is fun!

Still loves to swing.

She really liked trying to walk on the balance beam.

Almost tall enough.

August Update

Here is some updates from the past month.

Got a picture of the headband with the giant flower.

Trying to get into Hanna's marker box.

Out at the farmers market.  It was a great day!

Tori wanted to sit in Hanna's doll stroller.

 

Pretending to talk on the phone.

Breakfast time!  It was a good breakfast of bannanas, grapes, and toast.

And milk of course.

Just a cute picture.
