Sunny Delight

Ok........my doctor told me that Sunny Delight is worse for kids than soda, the amount of sugar is way more than soda. I had never given my kids soda or Sunny Delight, so it was ok. Well.......leave it to a Meemaw to give Emmy some Sunny Delight. Much to my "un-delight", Emmy loved it and always asks for it when we are at my mom's house. We were getting into the car with my mom and she said to us, "When we get to Meema's, can I have some Sunny Sunny Day?" How cute is that!

Pumpkins

We went to a "pumpkin patch" in search of the perfect pumpkin for our front door. Emmy liked the huge ones and Reese liked the little ones. Reese also like playing with the rocks and straw, almost more than picking a pumpkin. Emmy found the one that she wanted to decorate with her "Mrs. Potato Head Princess Pumpkin" kit. We all had great fun!

16 Month Stats.

Reese had her 16 month check up today with Dr. Curtis. She weights 20 pounds 9 ounces (10th percentile) and she is 31 1/4 inches tall (70th percentile). She is small and long. She can say ball, mommy, daddy, dog, more, hi, bye-bye, baba, night night, juice,papa, no, yes, and many others. Reese is a strong willed, loud, crazy, and loves to eat. I can't believe that my baby is 16 months old! Where does the time go?!

Big Sur

Lanterns in the trees.......

Taking a moment after the ceremony...look at the water!
As the sun was going down
This was the view from the wedding location
My cousin Chelsea got married to her long time boyfriend, Jason, on Saturday up in Big Sur. I can't even begin to explain the beauty of this place.
Mike and I drove up on Friday, with no kids! I was wondering what we were going to talk about on a 7 hour drive with no kids to interrupt us! The view was breathtaking. Vineyards, to cows, to rolling hills, elephant seals, deer, whales, and the most amazing view of the coast. There are so many cute towns up the coast of California that I never even knew about. We had plenty to talk about and plan a trip back up the coast with the girls.
Ok.....back to the wedding. Chelsea is a fashion designer/jewelry maker, and has the most amazing flare and taste. The wedding was on a cliff, and I mean cliff. The pictures do not do this place justice. I have never been to a more beautiful wedding in my entire life. The view was amazing, the decor beautiful, and the bride and groom shared the most amazing handwritten vows. We all had such a great time and can't wait to go back up the coast with the girls.
Congratulations to Chelsea and Jason, the most amazing wedding!

Lunchbox

Emmy had her first day of "Bunch For Lunch" at her school. She stays after school and eats lunch with her friends and plays. I picked her up and asked how it was. She said "I had fun and I ate my whole lunch box"! Wow Emmy, you ate your lunch box. Did it taste good? I love kids!
