Today, I played with my kids as they ran around being super heroes with blankets tied on their necks. It was a very good day.

A Proclamation

This is the most handsome little boy in the whole wide world.

Happiness

... This is what happiness looks like.

Stop and Stare

I feel like she has grown up in a blink of an eye.

The Joey

Damon and I went on a walk with the kids this afternoon. Zoey asked, "Mom? When is Grandma coming to visit? Not Fancy Grammy, the Grandma with the Joey."

Back when we moved to Austin in July, my little bro Joey came to visit/help us pack and move. It was a huge help to have him here. Thank you to the Mom and Dad of 'The Joey' for sending him!Zoey and Liam kept him busy, and he is the only member of the Eddington family that has seen our new home. (hint hint)

We made sure his visit included all things Texas: BBQ, swimming, The Oasis, and Sea World San Antonio. Although we did make him help us seal grout and stay up till 1 AM Epoxy-ing the garage floor. Out of guilt, we let him do the 'Art Deco' sprinkles.

Baby Steps

Ever since the move I have been the worlds worst blogger. Isn't it overwhelming to update almost a YEAR of events? Since this is the one year mark of our move to Texas, I am going to make a promise to myself and my children to do little posts, either of recent events, or events that I have not yet blogged.

Baby steps. Baby posts.

Post one:

Pumpkin Carving:

The Friday before Halloween we carved our pumpkins. It was a special treat to have Fancy Grammy and Papa here with us to celebrate the Halloween festivities. Zoey changed her jack-o-lantern design at least twice. Liam loved the pumpkin guts, Zoey had a few (try 4) meltdowns when Dad and Papa teased her with the pumpkin guts. All in all, a very fun time was had by all. Our entry way was quite the sight.

Happy Halloween
