Gingerbread House

I got up (along with my MIL and SIL) early Friday morning to get a few things at Kohl's. We got Lane this tent/tunnel combo just for fun. We also decorated a gingerbread house. Lane had a good time.

Lane discovered that the gingerbread man was edible and had a good time eating him right up.

Weekend Photos

At one point this weekend, Lane walked into the laundry room, walked out with a pair of Brandon's socks, proceeded to not only put them on but also folded the tops down.

Brandon's cousin, Cassie, took this photo for us in our wedding clothes (thanks Cassie!) I was a bridesmaid, Lane was a flower girl, and Brandon was a bridesmaid (don't worry, he didn't have to wear a dress).


These are some photos of Lane that Brandon's cousin, Clarice took this past weekend. The above face is a new one of Lane's and she keeps doing it over and over and over. She even made it while I was showing her this picture.

Here she is watching TV...that's right, she has become a TV hog! She only wants to watch "The Fresh Beats" on Nickelodeon (for parents who haven't discovered this show...DVR it, you won't be disappointed with how excited your kids gets to dance to music), Elmo, or her "Baby Can Read" dvds.

Lane makes this noise with her mouth...I have been trying to capture it on camera for awhile, and finally did! I also caught her saying "Melmo" (aka. Elmo), "Two," and "I love you." Sorry it is so dark.

Trick or Treat and Dress-up

We went to our friend's house, The Barkers, for dinner and trick or treating last night. Sarah made potato soup, cornbread, and pumpkin pie...yummy! Our friends, The Turners, also came over to join in the fun. The kids handed out candy, then we all went to a few houses in the neighborhood.

Yesterday, I hit the mother-load in dress-up outfits for Lane's dress-up box. I got three outfits for $20 at Marshall's on their Halloween clearance rack --Score! Here is Lane modeling her new play clothes.
