Aren't We Bad!

So this was the scene Saturday night while the Alabama/Clemson game was on t.v.  Savannah wanted to watch Dora and Diego and Brian and I wanted to watch the game.  Brian thought about letting her watch t.v in our room but realized there was NO WAY she was staying in there while we were in the living room.  Brian decided the only compromise would be to put her Dora DVD in the laptop and let her watch it in the living room with us while we watched football.  Poor baby, Mommy and Daddy are so mean and wouldn't let her watch what she wanted to watch on t.v.  As you can see she was perfectly content with this.  She got what she wanted and we got what we wanted.  Why didn't I think of this a long time ago when I was wanting to watch the Today Show or the View in the mornings!

A Day at the Park

This past Saturday, Savannah and I met my Mom in Tuscumbia and went to a great little park, Spring Park.  They have a train, carousel, kiddie coaster, playground, splash pad and lots and lots of geese.  I think Savannah had a really good time.  Riding the train was her favorite!  It rained on us so we didn't get to stay that long but I hope to take Savannah back there soon.  It is a great place to take a picnic lunch and spend the day.  Here are a few pictures from our fun day.

Even though it doesn't look like it here she wasn't a big fan of the carousel and neither was Mommy & Mimi! Yuck!

Wee!!!  She loved swinging!

Sliding is her favorite!

Not sure what this is....scary purple dinosaur?!  She liked to make it bounce and rock though!

Meet My Mini-Me

For those of you who have seen Austin Powers, you know what a mini-me is.  My daughter is my mini-me.  Yes, she looks more like her daddy but she is my shadow.  She follows me everywhere I go.  She doesn't want to be in a room that I am not in with her.  Today, I was attempting to clean house and she had to follow me everywhere saying, "Mommy, what you doin?".  I would tell her that I was dusting and not 2 minutes would go by and she would ask again.  If I ever leave the room without her knowing as soon as she realizes I am gone she proceeds to walk through the house saying, "Mommy, where are you?" until she finds me and then the cycle begins again, "Mommy, what you doin?"  I admit this is too cute and too sweet.  I love that she is so attached to me and just hope that as she gets older we maintain this bond that we share.

Fun in the Backyard

Just a few pictures of Savannah in the backyard playing.  She is normally so scared of everything but she gained some courage on Friday and began climbing up the side of her slide.  She also loves playing with our 100lb golden retriever, Jackson! 

 

 

 

 

 

Ready for some Auburn Football!

Getting ready for football season!  Ok, so her daddy would rather her wear crimson but like that's going to happen!  WAR EAGLE!

Chocolate is soooo good!

We went to Jason's Deli today with my mom, brother and his girlfriend.  Anyone that knows Savannah knows she is not the best eater(even though this does not appear to be the case).  However, we discovered today that she LOVES chocolate mousse, so nutritious I know!  She had to feed herself, of course, with a fork no doubt so we had mousse everywhere.  She was happy to cheese for the camera with chocolate all around her mouth.  She is a ham like her daddy!

Welcome to the World of Blogging

I decided to start this blog partly due to peer pressure(ha ha) but mostly to try and journal mine and Brian's life with our wonderful daughter.  She is always surprising us with what she knows and what she can do.  She definitely keeps us laughing.  Hopefully this will also keep family and friends up to date on what is going on in our lives.  This picture is from Savannah's first trip to the beach.  She loved the water but wasn't so sure about the sand!  More to come soon.  Enjoy!
