Apples for Snow White

As you know, Hazel is VERY into picking out her outfits and hairstyles, BUT now our character development is reaching even farther...

Because when I got Hazel downstairs for breakfast in her Snow White outfit and asked her what she wanted to eat she went "Something with apples of course! Snow White LOVES apples Mommy!" - And no she has never seen anything with Snow White besides a sticker book but she knows Snow White has to have apples! This morning was not the morning to crush her 3 year old spirit and tell her of the forces of evil or poison apples... SO

I got to peeling and chopping 2 apples, added some butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon and set it to simmer on the stove

And made waffles

For an apple waffle supreme fit for Snow White herself.

Because when you are Snow White... You MUST eat apples!

Obviously Mommy

Whew!

Always,

Amelia

See You Caturday

Our little Devon Rex kittens are heading to their new homes tomorrow.

We will so miss their cute silly antics.

I know their new families are MEOWY excited to meet them!

We will see you so soon!

Don't forget my favorite toy!

Happy See You Caturday!!! 

Raise Your Hand

 The morning was crisp and fall was finally in the air. I could think of asking only one thing while we were eating breakfast...

Who wants to go to Grandma and Grandpa's house... 

Raise your hand!

Thatcher: "Papa?! Paaaapaaaaaaa"

First we HAD to visit the swings

Hazel has been begging to go swing swing for weeks and it has either been too hot or flooding

Thatcher took this time to explore 

And follow Grandpa everywhere

Plus the tractor

Need I say more?

"Beep Beeeeeep!"

After a fun Papa and Lala lunch we headed back home to do some doggie recess before naptime

Thatcher is getting all his steps in following the doggies with "Ruff ruff! RUFFF RUFFFFF!" and handing them sticks. His giggles afterwards are the best.

The dogs give his graham cracker hand sticks a 10/10

"Tiny humans are the best!"

SLURP

A PAWfect day

Spent with family - both human and furry alike!

Raise your hand if you want more days like these!

ME ME ME ME ME!!

Always,

Amelia

A Boy and his Good Boys

Thatcher and Ernie have been taking turns together about the yard for a midday promenade

"AHHHH RUUUFFF RUFFF!"

*Intense toddler giggles*

and repeat <3

Today, Maverick decided he wanted to join the backyard boys club

Well... you guys coming or what?

Come on Ernie! Time to get moving

A boy and his good boys <3 

What a PAWfect promenade party!

Always,

Amelia

Nights Like This

 There was a point, a really long point actually, where I thought my nights would never look like this

Tails wagging, tiny feet, and everyone eagerly ready for a bedtime story

Even through the CHAOS that is getting two toddler GREMLINS to sleep -Is there a switch to the hysterical laughing running around not putting on pajamas that I can find? I want to both turn it off and dial it allll the way up

I am so so so incredibly grateful, lucky, and so proud of myself that this is my life

I never gave up. I never let my body give up. And now we have Silly Lullaby with Lulu

Licking Thatcher's head for a goodnight grooming of giggles

And I am so THANKFUL for nights like this <3 

A rocking chair and heart full of love 

Always,

Amelia

Live Out Loud

Color is starting to splash all around us

With leaves transitioning into their spectacular autumnal shades

Why not listen to nature and live in full color too?

Hazel sure does!

We could all use a little reminder from time to time from Hazel and the trees

Find beauty in everything around you

Find your light

And let yourself shine

And once you find your unique YOU, JUMP all in!

Live Out Loud!

Always,

Amelia

Stick with You

Thatcher and Ernie are the bestest of friends

From watching the deer walk by

To finding the most PAWfect sticks in the yard

Everything is better when you do it together!

UNTIL....

"Stick with you" becomes a little bit too literal for one furry family member

"Ruff Ruff! Oh No! Oh No! Oh No!"

"OH NOO! Mama! OH NO!!"

"Oh nooo, oh no oh noooo"

ALLLLL the way up the hill.

Am I a terrible Mom for laughing too hard to see before I could get Thatcher's stick back?

It's just the way he says "OH NOOO" instead of 'Uh-Oh' or something like that...It encapsulates the woes of toddlerhood to PAWfection.

Oh Ernieeeee! Bring back the stick please!

Always,

Amelia
