Finally...

I know, I know.... worst mommy blogger ever! One answer... life. It's been busy and perhaps a move, croup, RSV, and a full time job may have gotten in the way of this momma and her favorite little outlet... blogging. Gramma is out taking G for a walk and she said those magic words "You go do whatever you need to do." Oh, so scour the entire house, finish unpacking at least one room, dishes, catch up with my colossal pile of grading... where to begin. I think I'll just pick up the 5 dead C-roaches sitting around the house (I sprayed last night because all this stinkin' rain has them using my home as their own), take care of business in private without having a one year old unroll the tp and as he runs out, I suddenly realize that what's trailing behind him is the last of the roll and there's nothing but Kleenexes within reach, or maybe just blog. Was that a run-on sentence? Oh well, I mean I'm not an English teacher or anything... In a nutshell, I'm back!

Missed y'all! And sorry, Karen. ;)

Blueberry Boy

Mrs. Beauregarde: But I can't have a blueberry as a daughter... How will she compete?

Veruca Salt: You could put her in the county fair!

If we'd let him, Gray would eat blueberries all day, every day!

Little Lion Man

We started off the night right... a Cranberry PUMPKIN Apple snack!

Then it was off to join the gang.

We of course made a stop by the Gs and took a pic with Little Red Riding Hood, The Big Nice Wolf, The Tin Man, and Tinkerbell

After several almost-shmeltdowns, we discovered that Little Lion Man just wanted to travel in style with his best bud. 

Although several trick-or-treating attempts were made, mostly Gray was just curious then uninterested.  

Thanks Evans Clan for a super, second Halloween!

feeding fun

I feel like so many of my posts contain the words Mr. Independent but that's my Gray. 

This week we have started independent eating with a spoon. Needless to say, he loves it. 

Hope you enjoy the pics as much as he enjoyed the yogurt.

As you can see, I have my work cut out for me big time but I wouldn't trade it for anything!
