Putting Up the Tree

Ellie really enjoyed helping put up the Christmas tree this year. We also enjoyed some father daughter dancing to Christmas tunes along the way.

BB2

Ashley had her 2nd OB appointment yesterday and BB2 (Baby Bowers 2) is measuring right on time and was moving all over the place. Ellie was checking out the pictures this morning saying "baby", even though she has no concept of what is going on. Her answer to whether she wants a baby brother or sister is "brothersister". Ashley's next ultrasound will not be until the week before Christmas, so we will not know the sex until then.

Party in the Park

Sunday we went to the park for a Halloween party. Ellie's favorite part was the swing. I had to literally drag her off after about 30 minutes. She kept saying "I fly".

My Girls

A lazy Saturday afternoon.

Old Baker Farm

We made a trip out the the Old Baker Farm yesterday. They have all kinds of stuff to do like a corn maze, horse back rides, petting farm, hayrides, and of course a pumpkin patch. Ellie's favorite was the "horsey" and the tractor. It was a beautiful fall morning and a fun family outing.

Big Sister Ellie

Not the best quality image, but in real time we were able to see the heart beat. Ashley is 8 wks pregnant and due in May. We are very excited about the new addition to our family. Ashley has been feeling a little rough, but she is being a trooper. Hopefully it will pass soon. Ellie is still undecided on whether she wants a baby brother or sister. If she only new how her world is going to get turned upside down this spring.

Spongebob 2nd Birthday Party

It was a scorcher of a day, but Ellie had a ball. Thanks to all the family and friends who helped us celebrate. Hard to believe our "Peanut" has been with us for 2 years already.

Papa & Me

School Birthday Party

I had the day off and Ashley's parents were able to get into town in time to help Ellie celebrate her 2nd Birthday a little early with some cupcakes made by Ashley for her class. Papa and Grandmama even joined in for song time on the carpet with the rest of the class.

Friday Afternoon

Go Dawgs!

Cheese

After a long day of playing and learning, sometimes you just need to unwind on the couch.
