Daddy Daughter Date Night

Every year here in Auburn they have a Daddy Daughter dance, and these two got to go to their very first one together a few weeks ago! Ellie was very excited about it and ended up having a great time with her Daddy.


 We met up with this group of girls, and after taking pictures the girls headed off with their daddys to Mikata for dinner, and the little boys headed off to dinner with their mamas!


 It was a little too chilly out for Sims so Aunt She She was sweet enough to keep him for a few hours. 

What a special night for Ellie and her Daddy. They will definitely be going again next year!

Reasons Why I Can't Get This Blog Updated!

For the most part she has become a GREAT helper around here, but she still has her moments. Like a few days ago when she decided to go through my beach bag that was in the garage and dump EVERYthing. I found her on the screened porch like this...
 and him like this...
 That would be sunscreen you see on his face! Yes, Ellie decided they both needed a little sunscreen!
 This would be my saving grace. This angel of a baby that we have been blessed with. I mean, seriously, he wins the best baby award around here! Thank goodness this is all he does besides sleep!
 And he spends a lot of time like this...
 Yes, that would be sweet Sims up on the counter AWAY from his big brother who likes to torment him! I literally canNOT keep Greer away from him lately. Greer likes to headbutt, bite, hit, and run his cars and tractors all over Sims' head. Poor baby! Even though this may not appear to be the safest place for Sims, it is a lot safer than being down at his brother's reach!

This little guy can just steal your heart at times and be the sweetest, cutest thing you have ever seen. And there are those other times where he turns into a little monster! I am hoping he is just going through a stage because I remember 22 months being a very challenging age with Ellie as well.
 He will just sit and do the cutest things, like put Cheerios in his tractor...
 and give you this smile! Wrong camera setting, but I love this picture of him because it totally captures his p personality!
His vocabulary has also completely blossomed, and he is talking up a storm! Tractors are still his obsession, and the way he says tractor is hysterical. He also calls Riley "Ry Ry!"

I hope to be back soon with some updates!

Update in Pictures...

Well, of course a month has passed, and I haven't updated the blog! Time certainly does fly when you are crazy busy chasing 3 little ones around! I will have to make this an update "in pictures." We have had a lot of help from MeMe and Lollie as well as lots of fun visitors come to meet Baby Sims, and a week-long trip to Atmore to visit Lollie and Poppy and for Sims to meet his Maw Maw. I was terrible and didn't hardly any pictures down in Atmore. Boo! But, here is what we have been up to in random order because it just didn't work out for them to be in chronological order...
