Happy Halloween

If you can't tell Mart Reilly was a flower. We didn't treat or treat but we did pass out candy to the 6 people that came to our house. I tried to get a picture of her standing but that didn't happen. We did show off our costume at Walgreen's. I wasn't going to hand out candy but at the last minute I did.

Waiting for Halloween

Poor Cooper. He thought he was being punished.

I have been slack on the updates. Truthfully, we haven't done anything to take pictures of. I got yelled at from Ladson that I need to post so I finally did. Sorry all who have been waiting. We are going treat or treating tomorrow (just around to our friends) so we will have more pictures tomorrow.

8 months!

Mary Reilly turns 8 months today! Wow time goes by so fast. I love you my sweet baby girlie.

Cloth Diaper update

It was a successful night. No leakage at all. The cloth diapers come with two inserts. One for newborns and one for "normal" size babies. I didn't want to take any chances so I doubled up for night time. It did have a stinky in it but was very easy to clean. I only have two dirty diapers but I really want to clean them. I will probably wait until tonight to do my first wash. Mary Reilly seems to like them. No pulling on them or having problems crawling...darn I thought it might slow her down a little :( I do have disposable diapers left. I will save them when I travel on planes and long car rides. I think that might work out. If you think you might not like this idea, just try them.

**I went to Target yesterday and the have them there!!** They are the same price minus shipping.

Not so wordless Wednesday

My brother Steve painted these. Believe me when I say these are the only PG ones I can show. I guess I needed his permission but I don't think he is going to sue his sister and plus it's free advertisement. He is in graduate school (lifetime student) and going to teach when he graduates in May. I just thought I would share what he has been doing. I do think the little baby tied up is a little disturbing.

Happy Baby

A new version of hide and seek

Cloth Diapers!?!

I can't believe I made the switch but I did! Mary Reilly will (in 2 days) be using cloth diapers. Mary Reilly gets diaper rash so bad so I thought these would help her. Plus I don't have to buy diapers again if they work. My friend Amanda told me about these. I just hope it will work. Her baby is going to be 4 months this week and loves them. I got the white ones. I know it's boring but I do love using my diaper covers. I just hope they will still fit over these. I bought 6 diapers. I will start with these then buy more if I need them. I will update when I get these.

Free Starbucks!

If anyone knows me knows I am a big big fan of Starbucks. Here is a link for you to get a free tall cup of Coffee. http://www.barnesandnoble.com/email/nav.asp?r=1&PID=24816&r=1 It's only good at a Barnes and Noble Starbucks. I know their thinking that if go into Barnes and Noble I will buy a book. Nope I don't have time to read but I do have time to go to Starbucks :)

I am trying to do the coupon game. I am not as good as most people but I feel that if it saves me a little then I will use them.

Pumpkin Patch Time

Mary Reilly stands! I caught her this morning like this. What next walking?
Yesterday morning I found that I had another dog in my yard. I didn't know who she belonged to and she had a hurt paw. She was shaking so bad and biting Cooper. I had to call the animal control. I love all dogs but not pit bulls. They are unreproducible and I can't take any chances around Mary Reilly. She didn't even have a collar on. I felt bad that I called but what else could I do. Keeping her is NOT an option!
Pumpkin Patch time!

We went to the pumpkin patch this morning and Mary Reilly pick one. (Not the one in the picture) She had fun but didn't know why she had to sit on hay.

Thanks Melissa for the dress!

Round 2

Here we go again. Ladson left to go back to Kuwait. Sorry no Picture. I forgot my camera :( 7 months to go!

R & R Pics

Not just crawling but pulling up!! Oh what fun! Our coffee table has to go.
We spent a few days at my parents mountain house. It was cold and I didn't pack winter stuff! It's in Saluda NC. We loved it so much we are trying to buy some property up there...

Go Wofford! We went to Wofford homecoming and they actually won! It was a good game but we can't believe tickets went up to $20! I would understand a Clemson or USC game but come on people this is Wofford.
We ran into Catie and her husband at the terrier ball. She was Ladson's good friend and in our wedding. Sorry about the picture the setting on my camera was wrong.

Finally, we went to visit Ladson's parents in St. Simons Island, GA. It was great to be at the beach for a few days.

Mary Reilly Baptism

Mary Reilly had to show off her new clothes. My Aunt Missy smocked her a new fall dress. It's so cute. The bonnet was a gift from the English's. She likes wearing hats and bonnets so we might start wearing them this winter.

Mary Reilly got baptised yesterday. It was a really nice day. Mary Reilly was such a good girl. She didn't even cry! My cousin Melissa and Ladson's brother Sterling are the god parents.
