Facts

Fact: Faith really wasn't happy to come home from the beach. This pretty much sums up how she feels about it.

I said I wanted to go home with Grandma, this is CRAP.


Fact: After doing this for a week:

Ain't nothing but a hound dog

Peanut needs some kennel detox. It's going to take her a few days "re-remember" her house manners.


Fact: It's much easier to take a nice sunset picture without a toddler involved:

Uncle Nick and Aunt Andie can take a nice, normal picture

Toddler GLARE



Fact: Uncle Nick is at least 187 times more fun than Mommy.





Fact: If I go shopping for fall clothes for Faith, I can't resist buying things for the new baby.

Little hand covers AND ears on the hood?? Who can resist?

Don't worry, Faith still got tons of stuff and I got her get the robe of her dreams. She ran around like crazy after bath time hopping like a bunny in this:

Again, the EARS. Kid stuff is so cute.


Fact: Tracksuits on a toddler are the most adorable thing ever.

Does this shirt make me look fat?


Repeat fact: You never know what you're going to get when you take a picture with a toddler.

Mommy, you SMELL. GET OFF ME.


Fact: It may only be mid-September, but I'm already excited about Halloween. This is largely due to being due the next day, but this is also a factor:

That's right, she already has a costume

If you want to see the pony/unicorn costume in action, here's a short video:





Are you excited for Halloween yet, or is it still too soon for you?

  1. You absolutely need to bring her with you at next year's Pet Day in that. And bring Peanut in the jacket with the jockey. You can leave Faithv2 behind.

  2. I think that tablecloth you're wearing looked better on the table.

    Ramsey has the boy version of Faith's Halloween costume (a brown horse). Taking video footage is a great idea.

  4. Jeff's whole family has super tall genes, huh?

    I love that faith has the bunny suit from a Christmas story! It looks so much better on an adorable 2 yr old girl than a 9 yr old boy.

  5. 1. I hate you for raising the stakes on Halloween costumes. I'm still struggling with figuring out what to do.
    2. Why must you tempt me with all this Uncle Nick deliciousness? And goodness are the men in that family tall!
    3. You really should reconsider that tank top. It's make you look pregnant.

  6. Oh my god, I laughed three times over with this post. First, that first picture of Faith is priceless. But, then the unicorn-oh man, I need to get my niece that costume. So, so funny. Thanks for the laughs.

  7. For the love of all things holy, get Faith a gold chain and teach her to do the running man in that track suit. Then film it. You can thank me when that gold nugget goes viral.

  8. The Peanut picture cracked me up!!

    My kids keep changing their minds about what they want to be for Halloween. I think I'm the only person whose daughter wants to be Luke Skywalker. Most of the time. She told me the other day that blue is now her favorite color because it's the color of Luke's light saber.

  9. Oh man, I'm just trying to get through Sept....I haven't even thought about Halloween yet! We don't really do anything for Halloween. I'm too old and married to dress up like a slut and go out, and I don't have kids so trick or treating is out.

    Faith's costume is too cute! I love it!

    1. You're never too old to slut it up for a night.

    2. Who told you that, Kara? Peanut?? You can't always listen to Peanut. Just think what your health would be like if you took Peanut's advice for how to deal with stray poo.

    3. Peanut really needs to lay off giving advice.

    1. I still need to figure out my costume. It's going to be legendary.

  11. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of A Christmas Story. "He looks like a deranged easter bunny!" :) That costume is so cute!

  13. My daughter just left the house wearing a halloween shirt, skirt and bat headband. Can it be too early???

    I want that costume! So adorable. I'd better get my game on and get my kids costumes.

    I'm with Faith. Who would want to leave the beach?!?

    1. I could have gone for a few more days at the beach too!

  14. In faith's defense I wouldn't want to leave the beach either.

    I don't know if I'm excited about Halloween itself per se, but I sure as excited about the candy...

  15. *Faith. Sorry, didn't mean for the lower case :)

  16. I got married on Halloween day. What does that say about me? Not excited about it though but I do want to put all my fall stuff out.

    One day Faith is going to thank you for all the pictures that captured her moods. I think the top picture needs to be pulled out when the first date comes over.

  17. I never got to buy cute pink things since I have 2 boys. I love seeing all the pretty pink stuff out there:) Too early for thoughts of Halloween and it's not as fun once the kids get taller than you. Not as fun to dress up:)
