A Sunday night

Pictures from the Pumpkin Patch back in October



A few pics from Em's 2nd birthday...






T'Was a great weekend...another couple of warm November days. RD and I laid low in the evenings, rented a movie last night, and just enjoyed not having a whole lot to do. El, my sister, and my mom went to the Circus today in good ol' Toledo...what a BLAST! Besides the fact that knowing the animals live in cages most of their days, we really enjoyed the entire production. El's favorite part was some of the stupid humor that I found less than funny. Go figure. :) My favorite part was the elephants; it was amazing watching them interact with each other, "dance," lay down, sit up, etc. How in the world does a human train a massive animal like that to do what they did? Wow.

The Snow family got hit with "the flu" two weeks ago, everyone but me that is. What a yucky, rather miserable week that was. I think following the exciting week of Halloween and all its festivities, El's lil' body just couldn't handle anything else. So she started the downward spiral...My house was a mess because all I could do was change our sheets each day, disinfect my house, push fluids down everyone's throats, and then go to bed knowing I had to do the same thing the next day. It was not fun. But everyone was on the upswing...until today. El's cough returned as a dry, nagging one. I'm kinda freaked about that knowing the concern there is for these secondary infections. UGH! I just want everyone healthy for Thanksgiving!! :(

Have to share something El said to her sister tonight as they were getting in the tub:
"Em's, do you know what? Even though our butt's are disgusting, God made my butt and He made your butt. He loves everything about us. So even though they're gross, they're perfect!"

After RD and I stopped laughing, we asked El why she thinks her butt is disgusting. She said, "well because it's where I pee and poop mom!!"
Duh, what was I thinking?!

Ems favorite thing to say right now (to El especially) is "Bad girl." It's quite possibly the most annoying thing ever. She is constantly telling her big sister that she is bad and we are constantly trying to redirect. Fortunately, El is pretty even tempered with her sis and just tells her, "no I'm not Em." But the talking she does with her eyes right now is by far the BEST thing ever. She just looks at us like she's 21 sometimes. She can make an entire room erupt in laughter as she shoots someone a sideways glance out of the corner of her eyes. See picture below for an example. She is just so smooch-able! My friend and I say that the reason 2 year olds are just so stinkin cute is because we need a reason not to get frustrated with how often they are just flat out STINKERS!
Oh the joys of these 2 girls...so precious!
