Sort of a phone dump.

Just a few glimpses of the past few weeks:

These 3.

Also, these 3. My puppies DRIVE.ME.CRAZY. with their shedding, constant standing where I am despite the fact that one of them is really, really big and has sharp toenails, diabetic thirst need for water all day long and SHEDDING, but they are my children and, therefore, get to sleep in the bed.

Also, Anderson gets to fall asleep in my bed sometimes when Brandon has to work late. He loves it and is already a terrible sleeper, so whatever. I don't even care about the sleep battle anymore. I did everything right with Anderson-crying it out, reversing the lock on his door, etc. and it didn't matter; the kid does not need sleep. Max? No crying it out and he is still NOT even trying to climb out of his crib and he is already 17 months old AND he sleeps from 8-6am. He is an awesome sleeper and I did everything "wrong,"so I have zero faith in anything logical.  So I let my 4 year old snuggle and could care less. One day he will stop but, until then, whatever.

Brandon donated blood after mass one day & Anderson got to watch. Brandon has veins that would make Dracula faint from excitement; they are huge. Meanwhile, I am still traumatized by the one time I gave blood about 7 years ago. 

The dogs are always putting on a show (ie: barking and having a wrestling match.) Gabbi usually lets Chloe win these battles, but at this moment is apparently throwing it down herself.

I cannot get over Max in his little jeans.

Did you know that pumpkins float???

A quick visit from the Memphis cousins happened in October!

A LOT of this around the house-conspiring together to break more bones have fun together. 

Watching the Vols. I love genetics. 

Precious little pic of this boy from school. 

Pic from Noni-he looks like Brandon here, for sure. 

Max LOVES riding in Anderson's jeep, but Anderson doesn't really care for it too much, so I end up riding him around in it. I am sure that the neighbors are noticing since half of my body is propped up on the roof, but Max loves it, so we keep at it. 

 We ran into Lucy Goose at a soccer game! These 2 will really ham it up.

"Take a picture of me with all of this tea behind me!" 

Just a bit of the stuff that was in my purse when I cleaned it out. It is safe to say that I like to be prepared for an impromptu need to entertain my kids. 

This is such a glimpse of my future, I just know. Everyone in my house glued to football. 

And, Chloe on the bed-that is the past, present and future. 

These boys and their Bop. 

As always, super grateful to parents who have fun parties and let the baby brother crash!
