Sweet as Pie!!

If it was legal I would eat up this sweetie pie one
cheek and thigh at a time....

We can't believe that she will be 6 months old
on December 4th.

This is a sneak peak of the photo shoot we did
over Thanksgiving with Todd's amazing cousin.
Stay tuned for our first professional family pictures.
Thanks again Tania, you are so talented!!!

Milk Shake or Camera for Dessert?

Tatum our little Buddy!!

We have to support
our Buckeyes out here.
They are playing awesome
this year.

Tater Bug and Mommy

The new beanie I made her, I learned a new
stitch and really like the way it turned out.

Can't get enough of this, that is for sure.

And a little more of this.....

I can't imagine life without Tatum, she is so sweet
and has brought us so much joy. Love you Taters!

More Halloween Fun

This year we only carved one pumpkin but it's a two
sided one. This side is a "T" for Tatum and the
other side is a typical jack-o-lantern face.

Had to make her a Halloween onesie with matching
leg warmers oh and a bow of course. She is unsure
of the idea that I sat her on top of this pumpkin.

Costumes this year: Todd was a bachelor detective
and I was Ms. Ohio. Just used stuff we had lying around
the house, not to bad if you ask us.

All the ladies at our traditional friend party.
Loved all the creative costumes.

The guys!

German Village

Tatum and I went with some friends to the
famous Thurman Cafe. It was not the best
place to take babies since it's a bar atmosphere
but we had to try it out. It was tasty.

We went to a park and fed some ducks, Tatum
really liked all the ducks quacking all around us.
I got a cute video clip of her excitement I will post.

Tatum with her best friend James. They
are so cute together, they get so excited
when they see each other.

One of the shops in German Villiage is a bookstore
with over 30 rooms of different books.
It was fun but not stroller friendly.

4 1/2 Months Already???

Tatum had her 4 1/2 month appointment this week!!
Todd and I had our guesses on her weight,
we were both wrong.

She weighed in at 15 lbs. 5 oz
She is 25 1/2 inches long
Head circumference was 42 cm
All three she ranked in the 75th percentile.

She loves looking at herself in the mirror and smiling
at herself. This was taken before she got her shots, so
she was still happy at the time.
It's never fun getting shots mom!!

Her doctor said we could introduce her to rice cereal now.
We will take some pictures and post them later.

Trick or Take my Treats, MOM????

Does it look like I have a tight grip on Tatum's
Treat bag???? Cause I do.....yummy to MY Tummy.
That's right I took candy from my baby.

Tatum made a cute Lion. We love hand me downs!!!

We went to a fun halloween activity during the week
with our church friends. It was a great turn out and
was so fun seeing all the cute costumes.

Daddy Daughter Time

I love these two together.

Todd loves to let Tatum ride on his shoulders.
I love this picture cause you can see her "chubba" thighs
under her skirt, and her hat is a bit big but so cute on her.

Nap time??? Yes please.....

Birthday and Buckeye Fun

Daddy turned 31 on Oct 11th!!! YIKES!!
He loved sharing it with little Tatum

Tatum was memorized by the candles.

Our first family buckeye photo.

Aunt Jillian

We had Todd's dad and younger sister out to visit and
we went to a buckeye game, it was so fun and so HOT!

Val and Jill

We took them to Jenny's ice cream to taste all
the crazy flavors of awesomeness!!

Does this diaper make me look fat?
She was storing up her milk for the night

She is still a little too small for this toy but I
had to try it out.
Look at her trying to look over that toy at me.

Too sweet for words.

Again a little too small for some things
but too cute to not try out.

I love this picture, she looks so grown up.

Tatum and two of her girlfriends,
they are all too cute.

Cheese!!

Kitty cat mask for only a $1 at Michael's crafts.

Doing the splits

This picture is a little blurry but we love this new hat
we got her, only it's a little too big for her right now.

Sporting her sexy sun glasses.

Sew Happy!!

"Sew" I decided to make a craft blog so I can keep a record of
all the fun stuff I have been making. If you want to check it out the link is: www.smashleyscreations.blogspot.com
This first picture is of a portable changing pad I made for
Tatum's diaper bag. I love how it turned out.

This is my new apron that use to be one of my
hooter-hiders. I love it because it's reversible.

Here Tatum is modeling one of the skirts I made her. They
are so easy and quick to make. If you want the link for the
tutorial it's on my craft blog.

They are made from old jeans and the waistband
is from an older stretchy shirt material or you can use spandex also.
Can't wait for my next project......hummm.... what will it be????

Fall time is here!!

Tatum and Mommy after Church. Tatum was wearing the dress that her cousin wore at her Aunt's wedding. Too cute not to take pictures of her.

Tatum with Daddy. We got a cute smile with her in this picture.

Love this chubby girl.

Me and two of my sisters the day they flew back to Utah.
We hit the Olive Garden all you can eat soup, salad, and breadsticks
for lunch. Sure miss my mom and sisters already.
