Fire Awareness Day at SI

The boys were so wild that no more pictures were taken, other than these 2 off of my phone. Why mommy thought she could handle 2 -3 year old's at a huge Fire Awareness day Party, I have no idea!! We were suppose to meet some friends there. Never saw some. Missed others. Meltdown, which caused us to leave early.
Taylor driving the big ole truck!!

Turner peering out to see the big helicopter come down for a landing!!

Play Date with Nanny Dove

On our way home from Charlotte, we decided to stop and surprise Nanny Dove!!!

T and T showing her how to wear stickers as tatoos!!

Taylor and Nanny Dove sharing a sweet moment!!

Date with Tay

Taylor and mommy needed a day so off to the Children's Museum we went!!!
Taylor standing on the dolphin's fin.

Who doesn't think the perfect date should not end with a sweet treat???

And thanks to bad traffic, we thought a stop at the Waterfront Park would be perfect!!!

Daniel Island Park Day

Not many pictures because this was a short trip. We are noticing why they call it terrible three's. A meltdown occured and our trip was cut short. When our "1,2,3 Magic" trick didn't work, we hit the road and decided nap was better than an argument/losing battle with a three year old. Taylor riding on the horses with Mommy as Turner checked out the animals at the petting zoo.

"Brother looking at me" as Taylor went around the ring.

Pumpkin Patch 2011

Pictures are all out of order!!! Here are the goodies, thanks to our Hibben Pumpkin Patch experience!!!They wanted the green one. I know it looks like a watermelon, but I swear it is a pumpkin!!!

Taylor trying to get "my big one".

Turner wanting to stay in the car to decorate his arm after his pumpkin was decorated with stickers.

The ride to the car in the " green bus" as they sang " The wheels on the bus song". Priceless!!!

Mommy's little helper takes the pumpkins to the car.

Turner showing off his counting skills...1, 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13, 18,9. lol.

Taylor riding a pumpkin!!!

Charlotte, here we come!!!

In celebration of my BFF from Kansas coming to Chralotte, the boys and I made a trip to see Ashley and sweet Hayden! We loved our play date, but forgot to pull out the camera. I wondered why until I thought back at the thought of 3 adults (thanks Ms. Van) chasing three toddlers!!!
T and T playing with Gan.....and LOVING it!!

See the laughter in Taylor's face!!

" UV" time at Boo and Gan's!

Turner loved the train time!!

Gan and his namesake! Special bond those two have!!!

Our IKEA adventure! This was when Turner fell asleep. Guess the running around, climbing all over the stroller, hopping around like a bunny made him sleepy. Thanks Nanny Y for the bulldog--obviously he loves it!!! * Classic Taylor picture: Why sleep, when you can snack!

Running around in the kid's section with Boo. I am still shocked that we were not thrown out!

And I love this bed...perfect for T and T, but they were out!!! They can be on the bottom now (together) and then progress to up and bottom later. Funny thing, they have consistently decided. Turner: "Tay on top, me on bottom". THANK GOODNESS THAT DECISION WAS MADE!

An early am visit to mommy's favorite bakery. I thought they would love the donut holes, but forgot about all the other exciting things they would have.

So many choices....they tried, " how bout that cake?"

Turner: Bathtime and the serious look.

DONUTS!!! (And I wonder why Tay wanted to go with mommy to get her am coffee.)

Yes, I can do it! This is the theme as Turner put on his own shirt on the am after our return trip. Yes, it is inside out and backwards, but who can see that close anyways!!!

" Wee " on the way home.....

Ole Faithful, Guinnie Pooh, Bad Dog, Guinness!,

WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!

Pre-Babies: We were a blended family. Guinnie, Jackson and Georgia. Three dogs gone in just over a year. We are so broken!!!

Guinnie loved riding in the back of daddy's truck. I mean, loved it!!!!

Guinnie followed his daddy everywhere. He hated the rocking of the waves as he rode in the boat, but refused to be left behind.

Just a month ago, Guinnie was the single guest at his good buddy's birthday present. He and Caroline, a yellow lab neighbor, were best pals. They would run around in circle and chase each other. Here, Sweet neighbor and pal, Ashley brought a doogie cupcake for Guinnie.

Ole Faithful, we love you and miss you so!!!

Guinnie playing with his good pal, Caroline. Friends forever!!!

** I wrote a great toast in honor of Guinnie, but can't figure out how to cut and paste to the blog. Email me and i will send it your way. Sooner or later, i will re-type it for you!!!
