Breakfast of champions!

This morning Allison apparently didnt want to wait on me to cook breakfast.  She opened the cabinet and pulled out a opened Nutty Butty and started eating it! Everytime I tried to come toward her she would run from me!! She really wanted that nutty butty! She has been doing it alot lately going to the cabinet and getting a snack she wants and bringing it to us to open.  I let her eat it well she ate half of it and then her eggs were ready and she didnt want it anymore after that.  Then she ate a bowl of cereal.  So I knew she would still eat the good food so I didnt mind her eating it.  It was just so cute how she was determined to eat it!

Getting ready for halloween

Today Lauren and me decorated our spirit jugs.  I will show off the final product on Halloween!

Alli helping out!

We went to the corn maze and pumpkin patch today also.  The corn maze wasnt much fun.  Alli could hardly walk in the stuff and Lauren didnt really enjoy it either. Wish we would have went to the usual pumpkin patch we have been going to but we wanted to try something different this year.  And this is the only place that has HUGE pumpkins for super cheap!

Look at how huge these things are!

Allison had alot of fun playing with the pumpkins.  I think she liked them since they were so cold to touch.

The 50lb pumpkin we picked out! Yeah we may regret it when it comes time to carve it!!!

No more bottle

Allison is no longer taking her bottle.  Today was the first full day without it.  She has been taking just the one before bed but has only been drinking about 3 ozs so I decided to give it a try without it tonight and she did just fine.  My Baby is growing so fast!

Last night before bed the Girls were playing in Lauren's room with necklaces and they each had several on and I took them all off before I put Allison to bed.  This morning the first thing Allison did was go in Lauren's room and put them all back on! Funny how they remember things. 

Allison is talking so much more now.  She says Momma, Dada, hello, night night, and tonight she said uh oh! I really do think that the reason she doesnt "talk" so much is due to the fact Lauren NEVER stops! Allison is learning to just talk over her!!

just me and Alli taking some pics while Lauren was at school

just love this picture! She looks so much older than one though :(

Here Alli was playing with my Moms iphone and she loves to push the botton on it.  Turns out she kinda messed it up! But it was an easy fix!!

Tonight while the Girls were in the bath Lauren was going to tell Allison a secret and Allison actually leaned in to get closer to hear her! it was so cute!!

Just playing this past week

Allison and her pink blankie! She puts it in her mouth like Lauren used to!

Playing outside in the playhouse.  This is Allison favorite thing to do! She was sweeping!

So proud of herself being able to get in the chair and sit down!

About to go run errands but they looked so cute! Both in their sparkle shoes.  Lauren wanted to wear a hat!

We had lunch in the playhouse!!

Lauren took this picture of Allison.

Sigh....

I got mostly this when I tried to take some pics of the Girls for Allison first birthday.

All by herself

Lauren was with my parents this past weekend so me and Allison had some time alone.  She enjoyed playing all over the house and the yard without anyone taking any toys from her!! Here are some pics of it.

wearing a new outfit!

This was so funny! She would pick up the hollahoop and toss it and just start laughing so hard!
