My Little Pumpkin Patch


I cannot get Charlotte to smile. Just getting her to stand there like that was quite a challenge. She was too interested in seeing what the pictures looked like.


I was tickling Charlotte here. This is my little girl - full of life and when she laughs, she laughs hard.


My sweet boy. Do you think he will kill me when he is older and sees himself in this outfit?


The kiddos again - this will remind my mother of a picture she took of my sister and me when we were little. We were basically doing the exact same thing.


And playing commenced... check out Douglass Charles' face. He is having a blast!

I dressed the kids up this morning when I couldn't put errands off any longer. I shot these after we were back and the kiddos still needed lunch. The ones you see are the best I got. I knew better than to try to get them to take decent pictures when they were hungry and tired...

Aren't these outfits adorable. A friend back home has a business where she makes and appliques/monograms children's clothing. Her little venture is called Katie's Creative Creations and you can find her on www.facebook.com/katiescreativecreations. These are so great because they are also reversible (and Charlotte has a pair of paints that go with the top, but they will be for next year). On the other side of the pumpkin the kids have Christmas appliques. Charlotte has ornaments and knowing that Doug would not appreciate the ornaments on his son, Douglass Charles' has a car with a Christmas tree on top. They are too cute and I am so excited that I get to have these matching outfits through Thanksgiving AND Christmas. So... check out Katie's things and enjoy looking at the pictures - which are a small glimpse into the craziness that is called "my life."

Alison they are precious (the kids and the outfits)! I am totally in favor of little boys in smocked/appliqued clothing!!!
