First taste of baby food carrots!

Callie has started eating baby food and rice cereal. She has really started eating well. This is a video of her first taste of baby food carrots.

The Big Girl Room

Last Saturday Christy and I painted Karisse's room and set up her big girl bed. Today we put the finishing touches on the room. We added the dots, the other things on the walls and the curtains. Here are a few pictures. We think it turned out really cute.

The rectangle on the wall is just a reflection from the mirror.

Karisse LOVES her new room!!

Our Little "Santa"

Karisse was playing Santa to all of her "friends" today. First, she read them a Christmas book and then she ask them all what they wanted for Christmas. Amazingly they all wanted exactly the same things she told Santa she wants. She is soooooo cute.

Pumpkin Patch

We took Karisse and Callie to the pumpkin patch tonight to pick out pumpkins. Callie didn't really care what she got so Karisse picked hers out for her. They each got a little pumpkin and then they got one big pumpkin to share.

On the way home we stopped and bought the face you stick in the pumpkin like a Mr. Potatohead. Karisse hates to be dirty, so we figured she would not like getting the guts out of the pumpkin. After dinner Mommy and Karisse made the Jack-o-lantern while Callie and I supervised. Karisse got rather "creative" in her placement of the facial features. I think it would definitely qualify as abstract art.

Crazy Hair

We have some crazy haired kids in this family. Check out Callie's hair do in these pictures.

Callie is getting SOOOO big and is becoming very expressive. Here is a video of Christy singing to her and Callie "talking" back to her and grinning. She has the sweetest little toothless grin!

The Little Chef

Karisse loves to cook. Tuesday when we got home from work and Grandma and Grandpa's she went into her playroom. I could hear her saying, "I'm fixing dinner" and she would talk about the different things she was fixing. Then she said need set the table. A few minutes later she told me dinner was ready and to come and eat. She is soo funny and sooo OCD. Love her, but she gets it honest.

This is what I found when I went in for dinner!
