A Daddy-Daughter Moment

Some candid daddy-daughter photos from a random Friday afternoon in November.   That girl loves her daddy above all else.

2nd Half of November

And here are the rest of my iPhone photos from the rest of November :)

 ^^Lot of sibling smothering.

 ^^A photo I found of my phone from Eleanor.  Gotta love the candid mommy moments.  And look at Ford laying down for a diaper change! That RARELY happened for that 4 month stretch.

 ^^The cutest PJ's from my friend Lucy

^^A little Santa at Cafe Rio in the middle of November :)

 ^^A true Cafe Rio lover right there.

 ^^At 9 months Ford was already standing up on everything and furniture cruising.

 ^^Classic Ford cry right there.

 ^^We've been in a major puzzle phase that starting in November and has been going strong ever since.

 ^^"Look Mommy! This is my costume and I'm Daddy!" 

 ^^A fancy dinner dinner with friends thanks to the beautiful Jessica.

 ^^Gotta love those dancing buns

 ^^My little Joann's shopping buddy

 ^^A family date to get macarons.  Eleanor always says, "Macarons? My favorite!"

 ^^One of our many holiday shopping trips.  I was trying real hard to get all my Christmas shopping done before Dec. 1st and the kids were pretty good sports about coming along.

 ^^Eleanor started doing this mid November.  I was grateful she was keeping herself occupied and happy in the cart but it got really difficult when I needed to actually put anything in there with her.

 ^^An unfinished corner of my bedroom that was made a little happier with my new eBay painting! The fireplace has been untouched for a year now but we really do need to fix it.  I like having that blue reading chair in that corner though.  And the painting brought in some happiness and greenery to the room :)

^^Girls night out to Chesterfield's holiday party. Gotta love antique shopping at night with friends!

 ^^Talking with my friend who was in the middle of remodeling her kitchen.  It's finished now and AMAZING. 

 ^^Eleanor loved wrapping and coloring her gifts.  

 ^^That one time Eleanor fell asleep during quiet time.  Such a happy moment because she NEEDED that nap!

^^Best $15 I ever spent at Costco were those flannel sheets! We've been so cozy all winter!

Early November

My phone is full of random cute moments that I don't want to forget.  Here are some from early November 2017. 

 ^^Getting ready to take his monthly photos

 ^^Eating Sunday dinner on my new china.  I was so excited to use it :)

 ^^First fire of the winter and Ford was mesmerized.

 ^^He loves his bath time!

 ^^Babies in towels may just be the cutest thing

 ^^She'll find her floaties and insist on wearing them while playing

 ^^The first time I left them in a room together and they played together happily for a good ten minutes.  Major motherhood milestone.

 ^^Ford can't wait til Eleanor wakes up in the morning.  He would hold on to her crib railings and squeal excitedly.

 ^^Practicing her E's

 ^^Mommy and Me painting session one morning

 ^^I found Eleanor trying to give Ford a new hairstyle one morning

 ^^And she loves trying to jump in on my make up routine (notice her cheek :))

 ^^Boys and overalls :)

 ^^Super Hudson and Super Eleanor

 ^^Handsome boys on a Sunday morning

 ^^In early November, Ford was holding on to our hands and walking everywhere

 ^^Headed home from church.  Love those curls.

^^Trying to take an after church picture of the kids, which didn't really turn out.  I did manage to get this sweet picture though :)

 ^^Setting up a Sunday family facetime

 ^^I was sorting laundry when Eleanor climbed up on my bed and started reading me the scriptures. "And Alma and the na-na-nites.  Jesus and the kids. The end."

 ^^We're so glad when Daddy comes home!

 ^^Sending in my ballot.  And then making a cake out of stress that night as I waited for the election results. 

^^Ford!!
