Laundry will never be the same

It's started already! I have washed a Chapstick (bribe for potty training), several stickers (thank goodness for Goo Be Gone), and now I am finally checking pockets. Today, out of my own jean pocket, I found 7 broken hair ties, 3 almonds and a mitten. Feels like the start of a Christmas song!

What a night...

Carter and I are in VA with our friends, Nanny Lisa (Carter's godmother), Big Jon and Deacon. Tonight, after a fun filled afternoon of leaf throwing, sliding, running, tumbling, you name it, Carter needed a bath! During bath, she grabbed up Elmo and Mickie Mouse, held them tight and started whispering, "I got you!", "I got you!". At first, I thought she had captured them and was letting them know they were her prisoners. Then I heard the rest of it as she held them tighter, "I got you, you're safe, don't worry, I got you". Love that kid!

Frankenstein walk

Appropriately for Halloween and 1st birthdays, Adeline has started walking! Slow, thoughtful, tiny, halting baby steps. But man that girl can move! Carter, watch out girlfriend, your life as you know it, is over.
