Thankful for a PAWfect Autumn Day

With November officially underway, we like to take this month to take a pause and reflect on the things we are thankful for. 
Today I am thankful for a PAWfect Autumn Day
With a backyard full of giggles
"BOO! Erneee"
*Toddler run*
*Doodle run*
BIG PUPPY DOG KISS
More intense toddler giggles
"Mama! Ruff ruff MUUAHH"
PURE happiness
With a yard full of Tail-Wagging Devotion AND imagination
Sweet Phoebe listening to story 9887503 of Barbie by Hazel
We are always surrounded by love
Today I am thankful for our PAWfect Autumn day spent together 
Always,
Amelia

Bubble Magic

With the clocks falling back an hour, our walks to GG's Place through the woods is now QUITE dark both there AND back. Thatcher has gone back into the backpack as he would only stand there and go "Uh oh Mama" "Oh Nooooo" "Mama?" and not walk in the dark. I can't say I blame him, I'd prefer a chauffeured ride as well! BUT with the crazy price of gas, I just cannot justify driving next door unless it is POURING down rain. So how to make walking in the pitch black through the woods more fun with two toddlers?
Well bubbles of course!!!
Guess who was the COOLEST Mom in town when I presented my children with a set of Mickey and Minnie Light Up bubble wands!?! 
That's right Me!! 
Pure JOY and happiness
And at only $10 for the set.... 
A Major Parenting win in all categories!
Time to take our light up bubble walk!
Doggie Approval 100%
To the gate!
And if you are looking for us... Just follow the trail of bubbles!
Everything is better with a little Mama Bubble Magic ;)
Always,
Amelia

Time for Fall Trims!

Sometimes I try and think what it must be like for a toddler...
You have your meals prepared, you get your dishes done for you
 You get to play, take a nap
Wake back up to go outside for recess and 
WOAH! You have a new doggie
"Hello??"
Wait a second.. I know you!
"Keeeeeyprrr!"
Your doggie got a haircut!
The only thing that is going to be falling faster than the leaves are the doggies hair!
Grooming season is here!
Who will Thatcher's next nap doggie reveal be??
OHHH Phoebe!!!
Always,
Amelia
