Old McDonald had a Farm! Eee I Eee I Ohhhh!

We have had so much fun in the past month that I just haven't had time to post about it. :)

I have been working very hard on my small business this month making leg warmers, tutus, and hair bows.
Little E has been my model for all of my Halloween costumes this year. I have had so much fun taking pictures of her in all these different outfits and knowing that I don't have to keep/store them all. :) Here is a sampling of the adorableness that is my little model.

I thought this outfit was appropriate since I had a devil of a time taking the picture. Especially since she wouldn't stop trying to grab the camera. lol


Little buzzy bee.

Cute as a pumpkin, no? The really funny thing about this outfit is that the onsie is supposed to fit up to 9 months... Little E is 16 months in this picture. I think Walmart has its sizing wrong!


We were so excited this month to go down to my sisters house for our nephews birthday! He had the coolest party ever! It was at a farm with cows, pigs, Clydesdale horses, goats, chickens, turkeys, and even a trout pond! What more could any little kid ask for?

Little E really enjoyed the horses. She knows how to sign horse and recently started clicking her tongue when she see's them because that is the sound I make to get the neighbors horses to come at grandma's house. Its really cute. :)

She wasn't quite so sure about the turkey or chicken. We had to make her touch them to show her that they were soft or "Sahh" as she says. See, just look at that face. Doesn't it just say "I don't know about this thing..."
Here is a picture of my other nephew and the chicken that he CAUGHT ALL BY HIMSELF! He was amazing! Those little buggers are fast!
Little E did like the goats, but liked their saltine crackers better. She kept taking them like she was going to feed the goats with them, and then quickly stuffing them into her mouth before we could stop her.
After the tour of the farm the kids got to take turns on the pony. Both of my nephews really enjoyed this part and Little E really liked getting to sit on the horse, even if she didn't really ride it anywhere. Here are some pictures of the little cowboys and cowgirl gideeing it up!

Here are a couple of random pictures that show how much fun Little E is having with her food now. The first is of her after she got to eat pudding with a spoon all by herself. As you can tell from the grin, she liked it!... and she ended up right in the tub afterward. The second is of her new favorite food/pastime: Black olives! She can't get enough of them and insists on having them on her fingers before she will eat them. I can't beleive how good she has gotten at putting them on. :)

This last week Little E and I got to go help at a primary activity for Halloween. Daddy and I just got called to be the 6 year old's teachers in primary so I really enjoyed getting to know all the kids. Little E went to the activity as a "princess" and I was "the wicked witch that won't let her do anything she wants to." When we got home we took some pictures of her in her costume in the backyard.
