Corn "Maize"





We went with the youth group at Faith Methodist (where Daddy is the pastor) to a corn maze! It was kind of cold. We made it through the maze without getting too terribly lost. Daddy got us warm chocolate (Daddy said it was hot chocolate, but I politely informed him it was warm, not hot) at the corncession stand. They had a jumping thing that we thought was fun. It got warmer after we did the maze, so we didn't have to jump in our big coats. Mommy & Emery were with us, but Mommy was taking pictures, so we've got no proof she was with us. You'll just have to believe me. - Imogene

My First Potty Prize!


I have been asking to use the potty for a few weeks now. Mommy lets me go anytime I ask! (And I ask a lot.) Mommy & Daddy give me a sticker every time I use the potty. They put my stickers on a card on the bathroom door. Daddy told me whenever I filled up the whole card, he would give me a prize! Well, I got my very first potty prize and am now working toward my second! I really like to use the potty. And I really like prizes! (The Tigger-Poot, that is what I call Tigger, is my prize!) - Aidan

Wish Lists

At your request, Mommy has made us wish lists to help with your Christmas shopping.

My favorite color is yellow. I like fancy things. I like tea parties. I love stuffed animals and dolls. I still put everything in my mouth (and the boys are around) so Mommy says no small parts for me yet. I like to be read to. Mommy is currently reading me The Chronicles of Narnia. I wear a 4T in clothes and a size 9 in shoes. (And my feet grow fast!) I love wearing hats and hairbows. - Imogene

I like to read. I like to read. I like to read. I enjoy being destructive. I like fluffy toys, too. I wear a 24 month or 2T in clothes and a size 7 in shoes. I really like magnets and puzzles. Mommy says no small parts for me yet because of Imogene and Emery. - Aidan

I am just learning to play. I like all things musical. Music captivates me. I'm a big boy! I wear a 9 month in most clothes. (If they are made small, I'm already in a 12 month.) Right now I just like to observe (and hit) things around me, but pretty soon I'll be ready to interact! - Emery

Are These MY Pants?


I was playing and I took my clothes off so I could put some more on. Aidan took his pants off, well, because he is a boy and boys like to run around in their diapers. I picked up Aidan's pants and put them on. As you can see, they fit just fine. Right? Wait. Those aren't capri pants? Oh. And the pockets should be toward the front? Yikes. But it has a drawsting! And drawstrings go... oh yeah, they go in the front too. My bad. I still look cute though, right? - Imogene

Zoo Playground Photos





Atlanta Zoo For A Boy That Turned Two






For my second birthday, our family went to the zoo! We really had a good time. Emery has never been to a zoo before. He didn't see much. He just wasn't interested in the animals for some reason. I got to see a lot of big animals. I had fun growling, trumpeting, snarling, and snorting at them. It was a good day for the zoo- not too hot. We saw all sorts of animals. I, of course, wanted to know what each animal said. Mommy doesn't know what noises giraffes, zebras, and meerkats make. I guess she hasn't had too many meerkat friends. We had such a good time! I wish we could go to the zoo everyday! Daddy pulled us around the zoo in our wagon! I love riding in the wagon. It is so much easier to get in and out of the wagon when we needed a better view. Maybe we can go again for my 2 year 1 month birthday? Oh. Mom says you don't have those. - Aidan

Take Me Out To The Ball Game!





Daddy got 5 tickets to the Braves game from the dad of one of his 5th graders. Mommy said she did not want to go. The rest of us wanted to go! Well, Emery just wants to be wherever his milk is, so he has to stay with Mommy. Daddy called Marshall and Jackson to see if they wanted to come to town for a Braves game. They did. (They know what is fun!) So, we all met at the Varsity in downtown Atlanta for dinner (Emery was born just a few blocks from there) and then headed to the game. There was a rain delay, but we still had lots of fun! We did see the first 5 innings of the game before Daddy made us come home. We had a lot of fun watching the Braves with Jackson! It was Jackson's very first Major League game! Imogene and I have been once before. We had a lot of fun! I am very good at the tomahawk chop! (Just ask me, I'll show you!) I need to go chase the dog now! Enjoy the pictures from the game! - Aidan

When Mommy Makes Dessert


Mommy made chocolate coconut tarts for small group last week. I got to help her make them. My job was to break the chocolate bar into little pieces for Mommy to melt. She wouldn't let me eat it. But once the tarts were all made, she let Aidan and me lick the bowl. It was very, very yummy. She had to give us a bath once we were done. And don't worry- it is just chocolate, cream, and sugar. Aidan got mad when Mommy wouldn't give him chocolate milk for the rest of the day. She said we had enough chocolate for the day. Doesn't she know you can never have too much chocolate?! I am a good cook, if you ever need help in your kitchen. I can count really high! - Imogene
