NATALIE GETS HER EARS PIERCED!

Natalie has been asking to have her ears pierced for a few weeks now and I was not sure she really wanted them. She would tell Cameron "Daddy, mommy won't let me have earrings!". I never told her she couldn't so I'm not sure where she got this from. My mom has been asking Emma if she wanted her ears pierced for a few years and she has been scared but when we told her that Natalie wanted her ears pierced I guess she decided that if Natalie was ready she should be ready too. So on Saturday, November 29th Natalie and Emma got their ears pierced. This is the video of Natalie getting her ears pierced. I will post the pictures later. I must say that we are very proud of her for not crying! This was a big step for our little girl. She's growing up so fast. I know I am very behind but I had to skip ahead for this post. :]

just a little update..

Beautiful girl :]

I have a lot of catching up to do but I thought this would be enjoyable for now. More coming soon, I promise!

[Balloon Race Weekend]

I finally found the time to put together an update. It has been a while and I apologize. These collages are from Balloon Race weekend when me and Nat went home. I knew this would be something she would enjoy and as you can tell..she did!

Natalie at Balloon Races friday night on the Natchez side. She loves rides and she wasn't scared at all..just like her mommy!

Natalie & Emma got their pictures draw by "Red Bug"...thats what the man called himself and he was quite a character. I was surprised Natalie sat as long as she did. Emma did not care for him too much because she can't take a joke and he picked on her a lot! You can tell she was pouting in the second image.

We also had a family reunion on Saturday but I my mom took pictures with her camera since my battery died. I only have one picture of Natalie on my camera and she is eating a cupcake..I will post that later. Overall, this was a fun weekend and Natalie really enjoyed it!

Who did your nails!?

Since we have moved down to Baton Rouge I have been searching for an inexpensive place to get my nails done and of course somebody I can trust to do a good job. Little did I know...she lives with me! Thats right, she is convenient and she does the job for free (somewhat)! What more could any lady ask for??

Natalie doing mommy's nails! She takes her job very seriously!

but she can always take a moment to pose for daddy

Showing off her skills.

She's a silly little girl! As you can tell, her nails are painted...her rule is she will paint yours if you will return the favor! Not too bad, huh!

Compliments of Miss Natalie Allyse Ainsworth:

I must admit that she did a rather good job for a three year old. Yeah, the polish is on my fingers.. but I do that myself when I paint my nails!

This was such a fun experience for Natalie...I knew she would love painting my nails so I just had to let her give it a shot. Yes, I sported this fancy nail job for a week! Better book your appointments quick! :)

Tomorrow will be a special day for our family. This will be our first time to celebrate fall together in Baton Rouge. We are suprising Natalie with a trip to BOO at the ZOO. I think she is going to have a blast! We are also going to take her to the BOOzar at LSU on Wednesday...I have never heard of this before but is a yearly tradition at LSU that I hope we will be able to participate in each year. I think we will surprise Natalie with that event also because she is all for SURPRISES! Mimi, don't worry, she will be getting good use out of her "Abbey Caddaby Fairy Costume" as she calls it. Hopefully I can have pictures up tomorrow night from our trip to BOO at the ZOO. Stay tuned & enjoy the update!

Dryer Obsession?

Everytime I go to do laundry....Natalie insists on going. I find it hilarious that she loves to go with me. And the reason why is...she loves to clean the lint out of the dryers! She takes this so seriously. She has to go to every bottom dryer, pull out the lint catcher, emty it, put it back in the dryer, and slam the door shut. She won't leave without making sure each dryer is clean. I'm sure the other residents are thankful for this, right?!

Here she goes!

Dusting off her hands, it is such hard work!
Returning the lint catcher thingy...
Cleaning it out, she does a great job!

She has to make sure EVERY piece of lint is off.

I just love that she does this. While I am putting the clothes in the washers this is what keeps Natalie occupied. At first I wasnt sure I should let her do this but..why not! The sign says to clean them before and after but nobody ever does (so annoying) so Natalie makes sure it gets done. I cant help but watch her do this every time, this is her "job" and she gets so serious about it. She's gonna make a good wife! :]

Hope you enjoyed this story!
