Baby Needs Her Space

Yesterday morning I was lying in bed, propped up and I brought my knee up. The baby started kicking. At first I just enjoyed the movement, I like it when they kick. Then I realized that she was actually kicking my leg!!! Apparently she didn’t want my leg there and was trying to tell me to move it. I moved my leg, she kicked one more time where my leg was and then stopped.

My girl needs her space!

Harley-ism

I took the girls to the dentist yesterday. They like going to the dentist. However, Harley had this question after her visit yesterday:

-"Why do we have to go to the dentist? I can brush my own teeth! I don't need him to brush them!"

Halloween 2007

I am getting so much better!! It's November 2nd and I'm putting up the Halloween pictures! I think last year I put them up with the Christmas pictures!

This year the weather was perfect. Sunny, slight chill but warm enough that they didn't have to wear a jacket.

We went into Groveport this year instead of just walking through our neighborhood. A friend of mine has always said what a great time it is in Groveport. We gave it a try this year.

On our way into Groveport we were stopped a light. A lady in the car next to us was staring at Harley. So Harley, being Harley, yells out the window "TRICK OR TREAT!!!" I asked her why she said that and she said "The lady was staring at me so I yelled 'trick or treat'" Now where does she get that smart-mouth?

We had a great time. The girls got lots of candy. I saw so many adorable costumes. One family dressed as the Flinstones with their little 1 yr old as Pebbles. so cute!

Harley had one of the funniest comments of the night. A teenage boy was dressed as a "rocker" (I'm assuming that's what he was). He wasn't wearing a shirt. Harley looked at him, got on the other side of me and said "I'm scared of him, he's NAKED!" That's right, baby girl, you be afraid of naked boys! Be very afraid!

Vanessa was Ariel, The Little Mermaid this year. She didn't want a wig so I spray painted her hair red.

Harley was a clown. I didn't need to buy a wig for her 'fro so I spray painted her hair blue. She was the cutest clown!

HOW CUTE IS SHE?!

Pumpkin Show 2007

It was a really good year for Pumpkin Show. The weather threatened a few times, but every day turned out to be beautiful. We had such a great time. We were there every day, of course.

One parade there was a very large 'elf' kind of guy with long fingers that dragged the ground. Harley was standing, not paying attention to the parade in front of her. When she turned the giant elf-like guy was nose-to-nose with her. She was so startled she fell straight back. Luckily Tony caught her.

Here are a few pictures. There would have been more, but our camera is old and the pictures are not as good as I thought they were. (Donations will be accepted for the purchase of a new camera. ~smile~)

Riding the roller coaster for the zillionth time

The girls both got their faces painted. Vanessa showed her Buckeye pride!

Harley went with the Pumpkin Show design

Here the girls are playing the "stick game" for the very first time. I won a stick for Harley. Tony didn't have any luck winning one for Vanessa. Luckily, she has a wonderful cousin named Amanda and Amanda gave Vanessa one of the many she won. We certainly couldn't have only one child with a long, dangerous stick.

This is Harley at her finest. The girl knows how to chill.
