Official Bedtime Routine

Well it is officially our new routine... The Havanese MUST come upstairs with us at bedtime. Alice has been choosing Hazel's room to snuggle into while I get Thatcher to bed with Kipper.
I walked in to see Alice like this... Tucked in between 'Brown Bunny', 'Grandma Made It Bunny', 'Sherbert' the unicorn, and 'Little Stomps' the dinosaur 
Just waiting for Hazel to crawl back into bed with another book
With lots of Hazel stories and love
It was time for one more bedtime kiss.
Then off to sleep <3 
My heart just loves this so very much.
And we will always have a house full of love and happiness with our beds and home full of Havanese!
Big and small, I choose them all!!!!
Sleep Tight!
Always,
Amelia

Labor of Love

 This past Labor Day we did the only thing to do... More work of course! Although this was a much more fun type of work, a labor of love really...
We went to the orchard to go apple picking!! 
My little hard workers helped us pick bags for Grandma and Grandpa, GG, and Auntie Aba's family. 
Ahhh, the first fresh apple of the season!
Hazel was the very best picker
And pretty much filled a whole bag all by herself!
And her tummy too!
Thatcher's first big boy apple picking experience!
"AAAhhpppppo Aaaahhhpoooo!" 
Pointing excitedly to all the apples in the tree
An amazing tasty treasure indeed
Although I do have to say... 
The more we picked.... 
The more I was surprised we still had room in our bags... 
Almost like the apples were disappearing as they were going into the bag...
I have two tiny humans who have NO idea how that could be the case AT ALL
"Mama mmmmm! Mama yum yum yum yum"
Help Mama pick the apples
Pick Pick Pick
Eat the apples
And
Repeat.
Thank goodness we ended up finding those 'holes' in the bag and got them all filled to take home and drop off!
Ahhh a Labor of Love indeed!
Happy Apple Day!
Always,
Amelia
