GO FROGS and Pebbles!!!

First of all, I have to give a shout out to our Frogs!! College Game-day on Saturday, are you kidding?!! It was awesome to see TCU's campus on tv and all the awesome fans that came out to represent us. We wish we could have been there, but we were all purpled out to support them in spirit!!

Our little Kate let me put something in her hair and she turned into Pebbles before my very eyes! She looked sooo cute and didn't even realize that I had pulled her hair up, at least for a little while. She is really something else! These pictures show it!

Last weekend we went to Dallas for my very good friend, Jay Miller's wedding. He married a wonderful girl, Emily, and we were so happy to be there. All the grandparents got to see Kate too and I know they loved every minute. We also loved our time alone and as we drove away and left her in Fort Worth, I looked at Mike and said, "Aren't grandparents wonderful?!"...wish we could do that more often, I am envious of everyone who lives close to their families. It was a great weekend though!

Love this face!

Mike's 1st visit to Cowboys' stadium, I think they got there at daybreak for a 1:00 game...SUPER intense Cowboys' fans are these Cothran boys!

Raining in Richmond

Our little one is growing up! She is laughing behind me right now at Tucker while she is trying to fling a toy in his face while he is laying on the couch. He never fails to entertain her. She even laughs at him while he's running away from her. Its so cute! It has been a rainy weekend here and Mike is enjoying a weekend in TX going to a Cowboys game with his dad and brother. I promised him he could go because he's been talking about going since he heard the new stadium was being built. I'm keeping tallies on him though and planning my trip away... :) Halloween was celebrated a little with a cute outfit and friends who visited us. We didn't dress up, but did enjoy our day together. Maybe if daddy had been here, we would have trick-or-treated. But mom was content not going! There will be plenty of years for that! :)

Kate is growing up before our very eyes. She will be 14 months on the 17th. She isn't walking yet, but likes to walk around with us and her new favorite and walking and pushing the chairs around the house..who needs push toys when you can use furniture?! She is a fire cracker in more ways than one! She got moved to the toddler room at daycare and is now playing with the older kids and sleeping on a cot! She was bored in the infant room and was making things a little difficult for the women in there...we thought we might have a daycare-dropout on our hands! Thankfully, things worked out and she is a different child on the other side. Here are some new pics of our crazy girl!

Trick-or-Treat! No, that's not chocolate on my face, but black beans, wish it was chocolate though...
My new push toy

Happy Halloween!

Two words: GO FROGS!!!!!!!!!!!!

She loves to wave at passing cars on the street

Ooops..one of my very favorite things, pulling all the food out of the cabinet!

I have gotten in 4 more teeth in 3 weeks..making Mommy and Daddy's nights WONDERFUL!

Playing with mommy's bushel of apples that her students gave her..I think I'm actually offering this one to Tucker, who then proceeded to take it after this picture

Do not be deceived by all the bows in my hair in these pictures...this is how my hair normally looks and my mommy hates it. I hate those bows though!
