Some pictures

Here are some pictures from random moments over the past few months!

Molly was helping Daddy weed.

Dressing Arnold up with jewelry!

One of my favorite pictures.  I love how she is looking up at Poppop! (This is when my dad picked us up from the airport back in the summer)

From Grammy and Poppop's most recent visit, on the merry go round at the mall!

Modeling her new Minnie Mouse boots!

Priceless!

Playing dress up!

Molly, her friend Ansley and Poppop!

Molly at her 2 year old check up!  Her appointment went great, she's healthy and the doctor was actually very impressed with how much talking she does (wonder where she gets that?) And how smart she is!  :)  That made us happy!!

Molly never wanted to be in her pack n play when she was a baby....but it's apparently much cooler to hang out in her babydoll's pack n play!



McCalls Pumpkin Patch

We visited McCalls Pumpkin Patch again this year.  It's a really cute place about an hour from us with lots of fun fall type stuff to do!  We went there while my parents were in town, and had SO much fun!!

Taking a ride on the cow train!




Peeking out of the jump jump!

Down the slide with Grammy!

...Then again with Daddy!


Checking out the bunnies in Bunnyville!



In search of the perfect pumpkin!

She found a few! :)

This was Molly at the pumpkin patch last year....

She's grown so much!


 

Molly's Birthday Party

We had Molly's birthday party at Gunnar's building in a party suite during a New Mexico Mustangs game (hockey).  We had so much fun!  All of Molly's friends came for the fun, and she really had a great time!  It was also nice because it worked out that my parents could be there for the party, which was soo nice!  My grandparents were in town from Tennessee as well for Balloon Fiesta, so they were able to come as well!  Everyone had a great time!


I am really into card making and things like that, so for this party I decided to make her invitations, as well as some other decorations.  It was really fun to do, and I was thrilled with how everything turned out!

The Minnie centerpiece I also made.  I saw someone selling one like it online, and I thought I could totally make it, and it was so easy to do!

The birthday banner was also homemade!  My friend Nikki helped me out with this one!  I LOVED how it turned out!



Her Minnie cake!

Four generations!

Taking a break from the action to have a slice of pizza!

Molly's 2nd Birthday

We can't believe Molly is already 2 years old!  These past two years really have flown by!  On her actual birthday we celebrated by starting our day at Starbucks to get a birthday cake pop (Molly's favorite treat!) We also went to Party City to pick out a balloon, had a special lunch, park day w/ friends etc.  We had her birthday party this past weekend, pictures from the party will be posted seperately.

In the car, after her cake pop and picking out her Minnie balloon!

Her special birthday lunch - We went to Dions (It's a pizza place, and pizza is her favorite!)

Getting ready to blow out her candles!

Her jump jump (present from Nana and Pop)

Her tricycle from Aunt Meghan and Frank

Her Hershey Park gear from The Brooks Family!

Nana, Pop and Uncle Wyatt's visit

I haven't blogged in about 2 months, so I have some back tracking to do!  Back in August, Nana, Pop and Uncle Wyatt came for a visit.  While they were here we went up to Angel Fire, NM which is in the northern part of the state for a few days to enjoy their timeshare.  We stayed in a nice cabin on a golf course, got to check out a lot of nature, and even saw some elk!  (Yes, elk can be found in New Mexico!) We had lots of fun! Here are some pictures from their stay.

Swinging on the porch swing at the cabin


Swinging at the park with Nana.  This little girl loves to swing!




Hanging with Uncle Wyatt!

Quick Random Post

Here's a quick post for you all - I know I have really been slacking on keeping up with my blog. 
Let me preface this entry with this.  Molly is obsessed with taking a bath....or, "tubby" as she calls it.  When we tell her its time for a tubby she'll say "OH BOY!!!" And start bookin it upstairs.  She says hello to the tubby when she gets there, and bye bye to the tubby when its time to get out.  It's adorable!  Anyway - The other day, Gunnar and I were watching the show "House Hunters" on HGTV.  And this couple was touring through a house that they could potentially buy. When they got to the master bath, they showed beautiful double sinks, a HUGE walk in shower, and an even BIGGER, gorgeous whirlpool tub.  Well, Molly was paying attention to the show, and when she saw the tub, she pointed to the TV, and yelled "OH MAN....TUBBY!!!!!!!"  It was hysterical!  Gunnar and I were dying laughing!  I had to blog this b/c I never want to forget it!  Hope you got a good chuckle!
