Things I Like Lately...

Besides pumpkin lattes and peppermint mochas, here are some fun things I have been loving lately about November...
#1. Getting to use this supersoft Taggies blanket again with Collin now that it's cold. I just love Taggies stuff!
#2. Ashton is loving hats lately which is so fun for me since I don't have a girl to dress up! Yesterday and today, he wore this rainhat all day long! It just makes me smile as he walks around the house. Last night he ran to Wes when he got home with his hat on and greeted him with his usual, "How's your day?" When we ask about his day, Ashton usually says, "pretty good."
#3. I have been loving listening to Ashton talk to Collin on the baby monitor. One morning he said, "Collin, wake up! It's snack time!"
One evening he said, "Collin, did you have fun today?"
Yesterday morning before he got up he must have been thinking about a new diaper because I head him say, "mommy, you know the wipes, where they are? Collin, do you know the wipes, where they are?"

#4. I love that I declared it overall day today. Don't they look cute? Don't worry, I didn't drag mine out from high school.

#5. I love that Ashton helped me make cookies last week! He LOVES cherrybrook farms dairy free chocolate chip and so did we! In fact, one night at dinner when he wasn't eating he said, "I think I'm ready for my cookie now." By the way tonight he told me he wanted some water and then said, "Act'lly, I want that cup filled with milk."

#6. Audrey and Meg and their dog Clara came over last Friday night and we had so much fun while our daddies were at their football games. This picture of the kiddos hugging is priceless! While I am typing this, I got a text from Wes that said, "Season Over" because his team just lost their playoff game. Hallelujah!!!!! We have our daddy back! Anyway, I will try to post the video later of Ashton and Audrey running and giggling.
#7. Three month old Collin is so much fun! He giggles now when we kiss his belly and play pattycake. He loves to watch his big brother and has started reaching for things. We are just so thankful for him. I've forgotten how much fun this age is.
#8. I am loving the libary (as Ashton calls it). I've always loved it thanks to my mom and even worked there in high school (shout out Kate and Sarah). I hope he will always love to read as much as he does now. While we were there today, I was trying to find good Christmas and winter themed books and he kept asking for truck books. I was getting a little frantic trying to find anything with an automobile that would hold his attention while I looked.

#9. A friend from church made these awesome shirts for the boys.

#10. Johnson and Johnson's Lavender smelling calming babywash is soooooo delightful. Collin likes it too.
