He looks like such a grouchy old man in his outfit that Grandma bought. "Get off my lawn you whipper-snappers!"
He loves his MeMe
"What's this?"

Someone loves candy apples

Trying to go go go!

Paused for a nap

Elliott showing Daddy who is boss and I don't think that Bruce Springsteen has a chance.

Do you think that Baby Sam looks happy to be at MeMe's house? Captive audience
Elliott just cannot help herself; she has to accessorize every outfit.
In the jump-jump with his pinky up; that's how Sam likes to roll with it.

Whopper Jr

She looks too grown up!

Taran shared her popsicle with Elliott and learned a hard lesson about sharing with toddlers; Elliott ate the red and white off the popsicle.

Taran doesn't mind if Samuel eats all the formula because it tastes nasty.

Daddy got Elliott a new hat today; it is one of our bowls

Hmm...Now Sam has a new hat!!

(We are working on sharing and she is doing well!)Meet the newest member of Divo!!

Elliott is proud of herself.

(Sam is trying to look at her.)

Elliott is doing good learning her body parts. She knows where the eyes are and can say eyes.

Sam likes when his big sister plays with him.

Waiting on the next body part..

Mouth

And a few minutes later he has a puddle of drool that came from his mouth.

October 3, Saturday

Roll Tide RollHoundstooth is definitely her color. (If you live in Alabama, then yes, houndstooth IS a color!)

We went shopping at Wal-Mart today and Elliott decided that she wanted to be a big girl. She rode in the cart for the first time!

Such a big girl!!

Let's hope this doesn't somehow make it to The People of Walmart!

And here is why we don't ride in the cart...she thinks that she needs a foot prop. It was quite the battle to keep her feet down.
She was being a silly girl when we got back home. It is funny because she sat on the couch and watched most of the Alabama and Kentucky game with just a brief nap halfway into the game. When I say watched, I mean that she was looking around me while feeding her because I was blocking the TV. Here the Auburn and Tennessee was on and she was interested in anything but the game. Roll tide!!

-------------------

Here is her E.T. pose where she moves her head up to reveal that skinny little neck.

Little one, your attitude is showing

Little raspberries

She wants to be independent

Ready to run

September 30, Wednesday

Playing with my fruits and veggies Elliott is laughing at Meme. I bet Meme told her to clean up her toys.

Where is the spider?

Silly monkey girl found the spider!

She is ready for Halloween.

September 6, Sunday

Elliott and PopPop playing with TaranI wonder whose chubby little legs those are...Checking out the bench to make sure it is of the highest quality.I love Alabama!
So you get the full effect...that is Kitty, the teacup pup, at Andrew's feet. An Alabama man needs his land, guns, trailer, freedom, baby and teacup pup. I wonder if there is a barefoot and pregnant woman in that trailer.... (NO, there is no one inside an no one is pregnant!)Elliott thinks it to be polite to pass gas on family. It is a nice thank you for feeding her.

She is very interested in the turtle. Of course we told her that when they grow up they become Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. And my husband is so talented that he finds the only crippled turtle in Cullman county. Yep, he only has one arm and is on dis'bility. I think he winked at her.
Borrowing Taran's fashionable cowgirl hat

Loving those rib bones. Just like the dog, you give her the bones once you are done eating off of them. She doesn't mind.
