Great Weekend!

We had a crazy busy weekend.  Friday started out with Eila going to the Dr. with a double ear infection.  Happy Anniversary to you Mom and Dad!  The meds seemed to help immediately so they got to go eat out and had a romantic trip to Target.  Thanks Ree for watching us!   Saturday we went to LSU for a Juvenile Diabetes Walk with some friends.  I walked about 1/2 of the 2.5 mile walk... Eila walked about 100 yards.  We were great in the wagon the rest of the time.  Before and after the walk we got to play on the bouncers and played games.  After the walk we went home for 2.5 minutes to change clothes then we headed to birthday party in Thibodaux.  We had a blast!  Sunday we woke up and went take pictures with Aunt Kayla.  We we focused and paid attention for 10 of the 50 minutes... Hope she can work miracles!  After pictures we made a quick trip to the bookstore (Mom bribed us that if we smiled we go)... We did smile, just not at the same time or while looking at the camera. After the bookstore we went to the Festival in Brusly... more bouning, eating and games... phewwww, I'm wore out just talking about it!  We napped and then Alyssa came over and we had dress rehearsal (again) for Halloween!

Grammy!

Happy Birthday Grammy!  We hope you had a great day! We love you!

Boy or Girl?

I'm very confused these days.  We went to the bookstore one night this week and there was a little boy around Eila's age who had hair longer than Eila.  The whole time we were there I kept talking to Mom and Dad about the little girl.  "Mom, the little girl won't give me the train", Mom "Why is the little girl crying".... And his Mommy was right there to.  Then today we went back to the bookstore (we seem to go there a lot) as we were eating our normal pizza and triple chuck cookie with chocolate milk, a lady walked by with earrings, a dress, but really short hair.  I proceeded to point and right when the lady got next to our table I said "Mom where is that man going?"  I don't get it...

Today when we walked in the bookstore they had a table set up and they were giving prizes to the cutest kids in the world and we won... Well, I think they gave them out to everyone but we probably could have won... We got to grab prizes out of a paper bag, I pulled this bubble set and Eila pulled out a Lint Roller?  Yep, there was a lint roller wrapped with a ribbon on it in the kiddy bag.  Turns out, Eila loved it.  Thanks "Louisiana Archives", your heart was in the right place!

Eila had a big week, she got her first pedicure!  Grammy watched her Friday and took her to the nail place.  Unfortunately she was too short to reach in the kiddy chair but Eila got her toenails painted and lotion rubbed on her.  Eila said there was a big aquarium in there and the little ladies in there loved her! 

I had a 3 firetrucks and 4 fire fighters come to my school Thursday!  It was awesome, I got to go in a smoke room and crawl around on the ground to get out and I got to hold the water hose, while it was spraying water!  I also learned to "STOP, DROP AND ROLL"  not sure what to do with it, but I like to say it .... a lot.

I also got my progress report this week.  I have to say I did pretty good!  Mommy was happy.  The three things I need to work on are: using scissors, using glue and doing things in a timely fashion.  (Mainly eating)  Can you imagine, two years ago, I was a chuck that ate everything in about 10 seconds, now it drag out meals for ever. 

Good News!

Eila has used the potty for two days straight!! Waahhooo. We are so proud of her.  There seems to a lot less fussing around here then when I was potty training....  Let's hope she keeps up the good work! 

Tomorrow we have a FIRETRUCK going to school!  I am super, super excited.  We also have class pictures Friday, maybe I will smile more for this one....

Mom!

Mom has just realized that I have been saying "Mom" instead of "Mommy".  It makes her a little sad, she says I sound too grown up now...

We are love, love, loving the cooler weather.  We now go on "adventures" in the afternoon.  One day we took my bike and the wagon for Eila to the levy and rode around and went up and down the "mountains".  We got to see the big boats pass by and we saw the State Capitol, I don't know what it is, but Mom shows it to me every time we go.  The next day we went on an adventure to the "Dollar Tree" to get cheap, tacky Halloween decorations.  Eila throws all sorts of things in the buggy and Mom doesn't even fuss.  Today we had an adventure of decorating the cheap pumpkins and a made a birthday card for Maw Maw Millard.

We had 3 police officers come to our school and talk to us, we got to see their motorcycle and take a group picture with them.  It was pretty awesome!  I am still doing great in school, I don't hesitate to go inside in the morning. 

Eila is still loving being an only child.  Her and Trudy have been painting her new bathroom and shopping as much as they can.  Daddy has been taking long naps with her when he has her.


Daddy rode us around before he loaded up his 4-wheeler to bring to the camp.

Here are our Dollar Tree pumkins that we painted...

Eila sticks out her tounge when she is working... Just like her daddy!

Daddy doing what he was born to do... the dishes :)

Mommy took the easy way of making a jack-o-latern.  She bought push in accessories.
This is my pirate pumpkin... nice huh?

This is Eila's bat pumpkin, well 1/2 of it anyway.  A few pieces broke when we were putting them in, guess we got that full $1 worth!

 Scary skeletons hanging by our front door!

Our finished products!  Not too bad!

We're Back!

 

 

We are finally back from our extended vacation at Nanna and PawPaw's house!  Mommy and Daddy went to a wedding in Wyoming and thought it would be best to leave us at home.  Everyone seemed to have a great time.  We got spoiled rotten at Nanna's (Mommy said she is still trying to get us back to normal).  Mommy and Daddy said Wyoming was amazing.  Here are a few of the 600 pics she took!

 

 

This is at the entrance of the airport in Jackson Hole (There are several more around town too!)

 

The Teton Mountains

 

 The Grand Teton Mountain

 

Mommy and Daddy took a Tram to the top of a mountain and there was a beautiful view

They saw a lot of wildlife!  Lot's of buffalo, elk, antelope, deer, moose etc..

 

 

They only saw female moose but this is something Mommy says she wants in her living room (she's serious...Daddy was all for it!)

Congratulations Uncle Joe and Aunt Courtney!  Mommy and Daddy had a great trip!
