Another day in the gardens.

It was beautiful out today. I loaded up the girls and we headed to Callaway. Wearing our shades. Autumn lugged her blue bear around today. She asked me today who gave her that and I drew a blank. Do you recall? Millie spacing out. Looking silly. I think Millie is really starting to catch up to Autumn, size wise. Square pants. Millie's been drinking that muscle milk. Now they are both doing it? Autumn took my picture. I guess I am mostly in it! Looking back at these pictures really makes me wish you were here too. We walked all around the Azalea Brothers bowl down to the chapel. Autumn wanted to go inside and I'm glad she did, because it was really pretty in there. There were flowers in the stain glass windows. Two bumps on a log. These flowers were really pretty, but I swear, there was a thousand bees around there! A nice view. Millie may not like plants, but she really is coming around to flowers. Does she n...

Autumn's first soccer game.

I'll admit, I was a little nervous about Autumn's first soccer game. For one, she fell asleep last night at 6 pm and slept through to 730 this morning. I was worried she was getting sick, but she must have just been tired. She woke up in a very good mood. We got ready for soccer and headed out. Her uniform is ginormous on her. It is the smallest size they had. I thought every thing was going to go great! Autumn slept well, she woke up happy, she had breakfast, her cousins, Aunt/Uncle and Grandma were all there. She lined up with her mates and when they called "LIONS" ran through the little banner thing. Then the crying began. I want to go home. Crosses arms. "You go home Mommy!" For the life of me I could not figure out what her problem was. I finally convince her to get out there and play Crossing my fingers... Here we go, she is doing great. She lamely kicked the ball and everyone started running and I thought we are golden! S...

Movies, spaghetti and wine.

It has been rainy today. It started lightning and thundering last night. I was OK with that. The girls and I really needed a down day. We rented: The Adventures of TinTin on Blu-ray and the quality of the picture was so good that Autumn didn't believe it was a cartoon at first. I really enjoyed the movie and would watch it again. I also rented Hugo, but I'm going to watch that tonight. Autumn square pants came to our room last night and demanded to sleep with me. I told her that she is not allowed to sleep in our room anymore, that I would walk her back to her room every time, so she might as well stay in her bed. Then she tells me that she just misses you and that she wants to talk to you, so we called to leave you a message. I'm not sure how well you will be able to hear the girl on your voice mail and it took us two tries. The first time she didn't understand you wouldn't be on the other line (OK, I'll admit, that was completely a Cherish fail...

Twirly, whirly day!

Autumn had school pictures this morning. She looked so pretty in her dress and she loved it! She told me she felt like a princess. There was a lot of twirling. Millie wasn't really cooperating for a picture today. Can I just say that Millie has been doing excellent at using the bathroom, however, today at nap time, she was kind of grouching at me and I just sort of blew her off and told her to go to sleep. All of a sudden, I hear a high pitched squeal and Millie was freaking out. She was shouting, "icky, fix it, clean, clean, clean!" I go running in there to discover that the girl must have needed to use the bathroom and I ignored her cries for help. She was forced to relieve herself upon her bed and let me just say, that was awful!!!!!!!!!!! It was not a number one and it was such a huge not number one that she stepped in it and got it on her blanket, the carpet, and some clothes. I felt terrible! I got her all cleaned up, her bedding cleaned up, I am w...
