Early November

I was VERY blessed on the flight back from Georgia- the flight was only half (if that) full, so the girls and I had an entire row to ourselves (and very few people around for them to bother!). I was also brave- packed my pump and bottles in the checked baggage and only nursed Addison- I got more comfortable with nursing while in GA, and we are now pro's!
these "burritos" are my favorite invention

Maya got to play with awesome stuff I got half price at Michael's

Goofy faced cute girl

One day Maya was so helpful with the laundry
("folded" the outside piles. She loves to hinder help)

Maya decided she needed to sleep next to Addison
(who now would NEVER sleep like this- she has to be swaddled)

 November 10th.... the ripe old age of two-days-before three months old. I gave Addison this toy. She'd started grasping things and decided to try to hold this and get it in her mouth. She'd get it to her mouth then get SO MAD because she couldn't get it in right or suck on it. She was crying like it was the end of the world. Then she'd get over it and try again. The cycle repeated several times. It was amusing.



And Maya played with connect 4- she's happy
filling it and emptying it over and over and over
I hate you, Mom!
(Maya wore this outfit at 4 mos;
here Addison is at 3 and did NOT
want me to take pictures of her!)

 This was November 15th- a rare sunny day, so we bundled up and went outside. Addison's hat is a hippo (there is an outfit to go with it). I put a dishtowel over her because the swing's straps were purty icky.


A few last Georgia pics

I let my ever-so-cooperative-for-pictures child wear her jammies to the temple. I'm that cool




Trying to get one of the two of us...


 Somewhere I have a picture of Maya in this shirt, in this chair, but I can't find it at the moment (it's on a disc somewhere). Is it bad I think Addison is a much cuter baby than Maya was? (although she looks goofy in the second picture :) )

Halloween in Georgia

Love the face (too heavy!)



Addison and cousin Caroline


Nana, my aunt Heather, and Addison

everyone hanging out. they were teasing my dad about his clothes

Jackson wanted to hold Addison. She was so thrilled
She was also quite thrilled to be
Boots at the ward party


And Maya was thrilled to be Dora
(she was tired)

Maya and Caroline loved this game

hay ride

after church the kids decided to dismantle the
"popcorn balls" from the trees


my fat Halloween baby


trick-or-treat!


Maya's loot. Caitlin and I took her out trick-or-treating
 but she still talks about Nana taking her

she loved Nana's swiffer vac
got a haunted house half price at wal-mart




Addison wasn't cooperative for auntie pictures.
I love this one (cait's face)

Maya insisted on buying this skirt.
Because Nana loves her, she got it

Addison has a matchy matchy auntie shirt and wore it proudly
while watching the mobile on the swing
