All things wedding...here comes the bride!!!

Julie's wedding was on August 27th 2011 and I am just now getting this posted!

We have had lots of wedding stuff going on lately!
We had a bridesmaids lunch (on the day we left for the beach) and it was so fun to see all the girls!

This is what my child wanted to do instead of eat :)

We had the rehersal dinner (on the same day we got home from the beach) at Michaels steakhouse.....

We had a spa-day with all the bridesmaids the day before the wedding at Ross bridge...it was SOOO nice to relax and get a massage, eat lunch and lay out by the pool!

And then my sweet Julie married Chad on August 27th :) And we were all 3 in the wedding...I was the maid of honor, Heath was a groom's man, and Allie Kate was one of the flower girls! It was a BEAUTIFUL wedding!

In between taking pics and the actual wedding

She was a dancing machine at the reception!

As sad as this is I did not have my camera at the wedding and we have not gotten back the professional wedding pics so I don't have very many pictures right now! But I will soon :)

Katy bug and chootball Saturday!

Allie Kate got her first low pony tail and it looks so cute on her :)

We went outside on Friday to play and when I went to open the gate I jumped back and screamed when I saw this....

I HATE bugs and I had to show Allie Kate why I screamed and she is obsessed with stuff like that so of course we couldn't go play and leave the bug alone she wanted me to "dit it mommy" so I got a stick (a very long stick ha) and knocked the thing off and it made a funny sound and played dead. She thought this was hilarious so she pestered it with a stick for a while :)

And then we trapped it in a bucket for daddy and could finally go play :) But she still talks about the "huge bug" and we found out they are called Katy bugs or something like that so she has been talking about "taty bugs" YUCK!

By the way since when does she not need her mommy to help her anymore? She just flies up the stairs and slides by herself :(

Allie found the bird cage in my room and thought it was so funny to put her babies in it...

Are you ready for some chootball???
We went to Jake's game this morning around 10am. Allie Kate likes all the little kids around, she told me "watch dem tids mommy" and she yells "go wockets" and "go jacob" and just about everybody is stopping us talking to her :)

My silly girl :)

She loves the swings up at the ball park

this is her making a "funny" face at me haha

Jake pushing AK after his game

Heath went to the Alabama game tonight and me and Allie went to Nana's house to hang out with about 100 people haha....I thought it was so funny because Allie has started telling me "picture mommy" and actually wants me to take a picture sometimes! And tonight she got her little camera and was telling me "picture mommy" and "say cheese" haha so of course I am taking pictures of her taking pictures :)

She looks like a big girl in this picture!

our past week...

Of course we had to go to the park :) I fell like we could live there we go so much but we met Collin and Crystal at a new park so it was fun...

We were eating snacks and all of a sudden my little girl leans over the table making kissy noises! And this is a big deal for her since most of the time she is scared of Collin haha :) Heath was not amused!

Thank you to the little kid that showed my daughter how to "hang" because now we get to hang on everything :)

Mom and John went to the Alabama vs Penn state game this past weekend and Jake spent the night with us on Friday night. I picked him up from school and me, him, and Allie went and got shaved ice and went to the kiddie park to play for a couple of hours, on the way home we got rear-ended by a lady and Jake STILL had his melted shaved ice (that happened to be tigers blood) and I turned around and screamed since this dark red liquid was covering him and Allie...but we were all fine :)

The next morning we went to Jake's 2nd little football game...

Yes my child has real pom pom's haha...A friend of Mr.Ronnie's thought it was cute that she was so upset that she had left shakers at home he went and got her a real set of pom pom's :)

Allie had to have her purse...such a priss :)

Jake had a water bottle so she was so proud of her little pink one!

On the way home she wanted to hold both of her pom pom's and I could barely see her back there!



We also babysat Copper, my mom's new dog, and Allie Kate was so excited to have "cop cop" at our house! Even though she won't touch her haha! She loves her so much...from a distance! This is AK staring out the back door yelling at the dog after Jake's game...

By the way when I gave her this cup she looked at it and said "roll tide mommy" and turned it up and drank haha...without me even telling her!

Allie Kate has been wanting to "help mommy" with everything from laundry to vacuuming and especially cooking...she loves to "tir it up"

Park park and more park :)

My little love, she thinks she is a "big guw" and wanted to swing by herself (of course I barely even pushed her).

For some reason she would not quit eating this! I don't know if it's because she is teething and it was cold or what but she just wanted to stand there and eat it!

"bwownie" time!

On our way to nana's to have coffee :)

After we got home Allie laid on the couch and watched her movie with her babies and enjoyed some bananas :)



I took Allie Kate with me to get my nails done today, and I was a little nervous about how she would do but she ended up being so good!

We made biscuits tonight and it about caused 2 nervous meltdowns...one for me and one for Allie! She had to sit on the counter to help me stir and cut out the biscuits and put her sweet little fingers in it and make a mess...but she did do really good I ended up having to get her a chair to stand in so she wasn't so close to everything! By the end of it she had flour everywhere!! I am glad I let her help and I am really going to have to be more patient when it comes to letting her make messes while "helping" me. Because she was so proud that she helped make them! She would go over to the oven and point to them and say "Allie's biscuit mommy" I just love her so much and I want her to have good memories cooking with her mommy :)

I love this sweet little flour covered face :)
