Week 35 Year 2

Reme Lynn,

I returned from my business trip determined to spend every second I could with you! I help you a little tighter, I kissed you a little more and we giggled a lot!

It's H week and you had a Hat day!

First official school picture! Yes please!

When I arrived home on Friday we went to visit baby Beckett Hilley! He was just a few hours fresh and you weren't having it! No way, no how was I going to get to hold that baby! That's okay...I was enjoying holding you! I secretly love that you're jealous of other snuggles! Guess it's not really a secret then, huh?

On Saturday we had gymnastics and you did a GREAT job! You were very active and are really getting the hang of it!

Then we went to the 1st Annual Nash Fab 5 Fall Festival! It's our Village and CC put on one heck of a party complete with bouncy house, leave piles, games, prizes, swings, photo booth and s'mores by the fire!

 

Sunday we decided to check out Lucky Ladd's! Once again you were a happy girl! Animals, pony rides, swings, slides, hay rides, pumpkins and more!

As much as I don't like the cold weather, fall is always a welcomed season! So many pleasures come with it!

This week, daddy has had to work early so I have had the pleasure of getting you ready. On Wednesday you blew me away. As we were getting dressed you declared, "I want to go to school!" What a declaration! That's great! Then you said, "I want to walk by myself". Okay, we can do that too! Normally when I get you ready in the morning, you won't let me brush your hair or spruce it up and today I asked if you wanted pigtails and you said YES!! Wait, what? So my well over 2 1/2 year old sweet girl, put on her backpack with her pigtails and walked to her classroom "all by herself"!

You teachers were even shocked to see you "spruced" up! They later sent me this pic of you at the library!

Now, not everyday is this easy but I can't help but to relish these moments! You are growing so very quickly! People say it all the time...but until you step back and live it...it doesn't mean the same thing!

Stay sweet,

Mommy

Week 34 Year 2

Reme,

Again, we relaxed and stayed within our routine as much as we could all week and get rest for another AUBREY visit! This time we were all going to get to stay together and have fun!

We went to gymnastics, Oktoberfest, Build-a-Bear and the TITANS football game! All of it was a blast! We wore you girls out!

Oktoberfest

The Nashville Cat Rescue was there and you were in heaven! You love little kitties and this one LOVED you! It touched my heart so much that I almost tried to talk your daddy into letting us take her home!

 

Time to hit the shops!

Your first Build-a-Bear experience!

A train ride is a must!

Some early morning shenanigans! 

Tailgating = Corn Hole

A family divided!

I'm glad we were able to have so much fun over the weekend because I had to take a business trip this week for three whole nights and almost 4 days! Your dad was amazing and sent me lots of pictures to keep me updated!

Tuesday

I made you a surprise treat for each night! This first night was a Shopkins carrying case. You are obsessed with Shopkins right now!

 Goodnight sweet family!

Wednesday

 

Thursday was the school fall festival! There was a pumpkin patch, face painting, lunch and playtime! Parents were invited and could leave but daddy decided to take you with him!

 Sweetest pumpkin ever!

And you got a trip to the shops out of it!

You came home with a new shirt and some surprise toys! Like I said baby cake we are super lucky!

I was beyond happy to be home! Oh how I missed you! You both did great and I'm so proud!

Love,
Mommy
