September Happenings

September seemed to absolutely fly right by - this is a "snapshot" of our month.
Playground fun on Labor Day!
They loved the teeter totter.


Clayton is usually pretending to be someone else - this day, he was Mary Poppins! He grabbed Addy's purse for his carpet bag, which I thought was pretty clever.  :-)

Addy loves to "mother" over all her stuffed animals. She decided to potty train her bear.

Fun with friends at Chick-Fil-A! (they got more excited after they ate)

Everyday messes with a 1 and 2 yr old!

Did I mention messes? Addy is the queen of them, but we have fun living life. :-)

Family Fun Day at church - the kids LOVED it!

face painting . . .


. . . and the finished product. He did not want to mess up his ice cream cone.

bounce house fun with Uncle Cameron

Lauren is such a great helper with Addy.



Fun with cousins: Kaley, Clayton, Allie, and Addy.

Enjoyed our first 3x3 with good friends Joel/Mandy & Nick/Jana. Clayton had to bring his pet grasshopper to show the group. He named is grasshopper Junie B. Jones (seriously). :-)
More fun with cousins - Addy and Allie "talking" on the phone . . .
. . . and now they decided to text each other. :-)

The BIG 35 for Aaron!

We helped him celebrate at Long Horn and they gave him a free dessert.

Clayton helped him eat it and got into it (literally) a little too much! :-)


One more trip to the zoo before those passes expire . . .
All the monkeys are definitely a favorite!
fascinated with the manatee

The absolute funniest sign at the zoo! :-)   I love the penguins!

 

Two of the coolest kids!

Looks like a good time by all. I love the pictures of Addy getting in to things and Clayton make in believe, he is so funny. Clayton will soon be three years old he is growing so much. Give them both a big hug and kiss from grandma great Herring.
