Daddy has really fun toys! 

Snow!

This was a view from my back window today, it was fun to see my little sweetie enjoying the first "snow" with her daddy. Daddy made her a snowball and she held it like a precious jewel! In fact, it's still sitting on the back step so that she can see it when she wakes up from nap. After an emotional week, this view made my day. I love these two and I'm so grateful for them, they've been taking great care of me!

p.s. Paige made sure that daddy had her sled ready!

Bubbles...

During bath time tonight Paige requested that I blow bubbles, she asked so nice that I couldn't resist. She tried blowing a few times then asked me to blow some too. As I blew a couple times she was clapping saying "wow momma, you a good bubble blower" and "good job momma". I know it's silly but it felt good to be a good bubble blower for my girl today, it made her happy...it made her smile and that's all I can ask for at the end of the day.
I love you Paige!

Fun times with Sam

Sam came over to spend the night on Friday and of course Paige was thrilled! She loved playing with her and followed her around the entire time! Sam brought one of her old halloween costumes from when she was a little girl. Paige loved the little cowgirl costume and insists on wearing it every time she gets on her rocking horse! Sam was a lifesaver as I didn't feel very good on Saturday and she stepped up and took great care of Paige! Pretty sure they both had a good time ;)!

Old Halloween Pics

As I was posting the pictures from tonight I stumbled upon all the Halloween pictures from previous year. Look how much our little Lion (cow/ladybug) has grown!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween from the Carlsons! We are so lucky, our little Lion had a great day and a VERY fun night trick-or-treating. It was her first "official" time trick or treating and it turns out she's really good at it! I ended up coming home and Ryan and Paige went out on their own, we had tons of trick or treaters and I didn't want them to come to an empty house. I love seeing all the costumes and cute neighbor kids!
