Silent Dating

Kt and I are always looking for fun and silent dates we can have in our living room after Audrey goes to bed. We are limited in our activities because Audrey is a super light sleeper so we have to be selective. This is a typical Saturday night for us...treats and favorite t.v. shows on the computer. If you have any fun/yummy indoor date ideas please share!


We enjoyed s'mores this past Saturday night.
Kyle was in charge of the computer (set up) and the ice water. I told him I wanted a big cup and he showed up with this...a Rubbermaid bowl. At first I was not pleased but it actually ended up working quite well.

My original idea was to toast our marshmallows over a lighter but KT did not appreciate that idea and decided we should use the fireplace instead. It worked much better...at first I was scared of our creepy fireplace but I kinda like it now that I have seen what it is good for.


It was a very tasty and quiet evening. We got caught up on our heroes episodes.

Treat Bandit

Here is Audrey after her art class at Gymboree. They have been making the cutest Halloween projects. Audrey made a pumpkin with candy corn teeth. The pumpkin was supposed to have four teeth but only two made it onto the paper. After class the teacher announced how proud she was that only ONE student ate their material...of course it was Audrey. Audrey kept a careful eye on her pumpkin and carried it around all evening long waiting for the perfect moment to enjoy a glue covered treat. KT and I were very diligent in keeping an eye on the pair but Audrey's persistence eventually paid off. We found the pumpkin alone with one less tooth and Audrey hurriedly chewing her glue covered treat.







We have also had some problems with this little gal eating her 'snacks' from the trash can. She keeps a careful eye out for something she might be interested in to make it's way into the can. The other day after putting several pieces of evidence together I realized she'd been eating BBQ chips out of the trash can all day long without me realizing!

Bday Bev

We moved into our new place, last Saturday and broke it in with a Birthday party for my Mom. The best way to recover from a move is to have a party!



Audrey with the Bday Girl.

Audrey and my mom took a quick taste of that beautiful cake before blowing out the candles.
This gal blew out all 60 candles.

Fellas

Sarah got the YUMMIEST cake ... inside it had fresh raspberries, blueberries and strawberries.



Audrey LOVES all FUN shoes. These sneakers were her FAVORITE last week and HAD to be worn ALWAYS. She's got a new favorite this week thanks to Grandma Natalie.

This little guy was the real star of the party! Everyone was so excited he made an appearance.

We are getting ready for Fall...

Cutest pics by Sarah Hull (you can find her on my sidebar b/c I'm too stupid to figure out how to create a link). Audrey went pumpkin smashing/bowling in Sarah's front yard while she snapped away. Big thanks to Megan for helping me to create Audrey's Autumn couture.

SWEET Baby Ryan

Say hello to RYAN MATTHEW WILLIFORD ! The newest addition to the Williford and Hawley family!!! Congrats to my brother David and Sister-in-law Julia!

He is SUCH a sweet heart and couldn't be any cuter! The only "problem" they have with him is that he doesn't like to wake up to eat, he'd prefer to snooze and relax...I might be just a little jealous! David and Julia are such great parents already. Mr Ryan is such an adorable little guy. He has the CUTEST little cry, he does little high pitched yelps that melt my heart every time.

New Daddy David and Rachie

This little guy didn't know it but he had a whole cheering section in the waiting room, anxiously awaiting his arrival. We turned the waiting room into a party room...we were SO annoying, I feel sorry for all the moms in labor who were stuck with us. We busted out trashy magazines, diet coke and whole lotta junk food. Here we are around 2am...looking tired but still going strong!





Here I am with julia's sister Jackie, who is going to be wonderful aunt.
Even J-rod came to party.

Bday Girl

We celebrated Rachel's Birthday last weekend. I just got some pictures emailed to me so i thought I'd share. I just love this little gal !!



The big 23 year old! ( I seriously can't believe she is only 23)









Aud got lots of love from the bday girl. Here is Audrey and Rachel on Rachel's porch. Rachel's porch has been one of Audrey's fav. hang-outs since she could crawl. She discovered it and loved it all on her own.



Had to share my new fav. thing...audrey's new shoes.
