Just Some Pictures

As always there is really no theme to this post just an attempt to quickly get some pictures up for the family to see.  Sorry, I'm just not a real "blogger."
This is my cutie all bundled up for the cold.  I am so glad we haven't had to face the snow yet!
Trav & I just thought she looked so grown up this day.  Can't believe that my baby is getting so big! The imagination station on the baby pod is still her favorite toy. These are a few from Thanksgiving.  Super low-key and relaxing this year.  We celebrated Thanksgiving a couple of weeks early this year when all of Trav's fam was in town.  On actual Thanksgiving it was just us and Trav's parents for dinner so we went out and it was fantastic.  Best part...no cleanup!  Later that night the extended family joined us for a buffet of yummy desserts! She tried her first vegetables on Thanksgiving.  It was squash and she wasn't so sure about it on the first bite, but with a little time she decided she's a fan! Watching Daddy's favorite team. Presley met her Great Grandma & Grandpa Harwood for the first time on Thanksgiving. Just another day of playing with Daddy! She's an Ohio girl at heart! I don't know why we take so many pictures when she is sleeping, but this day she fell asleep with toys in her hands and I loved it. When there is no binki around, the fingers are her backup. I love when she plays so hard she falls asleep.

~Blessed~

With our busy summer and other things going on, we just now got around to finally blessing Presley.  I was a little worried about how she would behave during the blessing, being older than most babies at their blessings and quite the talker.  But she was an angel as usual!  Everything went great and it was such a special day.  We were fortunate enough to share the day with Trav's cousin Whitney and her husband Derrek as they blessed their darling little girl Adley.  It was so much fun to be with family and friends and eat lots of food!  We were so glad that Chad could be in town for the big day but sad as always missing the Noll side of the family.  Thanks to the modern technology of "skype" I was able to at least kind of feel like they were a part of the event.  Our apologies to them for the view of butts!  Thanks so much to everyone that made it and all of the help!

Chad got to meet two of his nieces for the first time, and they loved him!
This is one of my new favorite pictures, the had lots of fun with Uncle Chad.  We wish he could be here more often!

I just thought these next ones were funny to see how hard it is to get three babies to cooperate at once!












Presley is so blessed to have girl cousins her age on both sides of the family.  Those girls are going to have so much fun together!
