Just an update

Our lives seem to be busy these days. We are excited about Thanksgiving. Matt is going to be home with us all week next week. We have big plans to do some things around the house whitle he's on vacation....I can't wait! I love when I can recruit him to help me.

Anna Claire had a cute little Thanksgiving feast today at her preschool. We got to go and it was so cute to see her with all of her friends. She loves her school. They were all dressed like Indians.

We are going to Monroe on Thursday to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family, and Friday I hope to do some major shopping with the rest of Shreveport. I LOVE it, it gets me in the spirit. The more the merry! I can't wait to get the Christmas decorations out too...oh yeah that's another thing for me to add to our list next week :) HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

Look Alike?

Leighton is 6 months old

I can't believe he's 6 months already! Leighton is a happy baby and is getting lots of personality. Here's what he's doing at 6 months:

-rolling around everywhere

-laughing at his sister (his eyes follow her everywhere she goes)

-just about to crawl...he rocks back and forth on his hands and knees

-sleeping (most nights) 8 hours at a time

-still sleeping on and off all day, he only stays up 2-3 hours at a time

-eating baby food and LOVES it, if you are eating around him he stares your food down

-loves his crib--still dosen't like to be rocked, he loves to lay in his crib and hold his bunny to fall sleep. I always napped with Anna Claire....he wont' do it :(

-loves to hold toys and gets very excited about new ones

-grabbing everything in sight

-LOVES to be held---he's a little spoiled

-crys when we walk out of the room

-I thinks he's teething

-Very cuddly and loveable

-jumps a lot when you hold him up

Happy Halloween!

We had a great Halloween despite the fact that most of us are sick! Anna Claire had a great time trick or treating and I think Leighton had fun too. We went on our street to a few houses and then just came back to our house and handed out candy, which Anna Claire and Merritt thought was SO MUCH FUN. They were flagging down people to come over so they could give them candy...glad I bought plenty.
