Last of the toothless pictures

Laralee started getting her bottom teeth last week. I can't believe she is old enough to be teething. She was a champ though, not that fussy. She is getting very close to crawling, she gets up on all four and rocks back and forth. She can push her self backward but that just frustrates her. Hope you all enjoy the pictures.

She is getting such a fun personality. That face is priceless

She loves dogs...real or fake. She laughs when either barks.

Would this be considered animal cruelty? Look at the death grip on the poor dogs ear.....she is starting this with Daisy's ears too.

I had to include this picture because this is pretty much all she does....grab for EVERYTHING! She wants her little hands to touch and grip anything in her line of sight. It seems like she started doing this just over night. And anything she gets a hold of goes straight in her mouth.

Happy Halloween

I didn't buy Laralee a costume for Halloween, and now I'm glad I didn't because we were in Charleston and it would have been in Georgia. She did get to enjoy the sweet part of it. She thought the candy bowl was great entertainment!

One for each hand.

What candy bowl......I never saw any candy bowl.

Our walk with Yogi

While we were stranded in Charleston, Laralee and I decided to enjoy the nice weather and took the Stubbs' dog, Yogi, for a walk. Laralee held the leash the whole time, I helped.

These are the cutest little socks. I had to get them for her. They came with several different colors. She is holding her feet in a good first position, our future ballerina.

Mighty Maroon's boo-boo

So...last week was a week Ryan and I never want to live again. It started out great because we got to visit our friends in Charleston and do a little landlord duty. Monday morning we needed to run some errands and visit my old offices, but on our way to pick up our stuff and the trailer we would be pulling home, we got in an accident. We were stopped at a red light when out of no where we heard this awful noise then BAM! We were hit so hard it pushed us through the intersection (thank goodness no one was coming the other way) and curled the frame and ripped the bolts from the bed of the truck. The EMS had to check us all for head and back injuries, all were minor, however, I am still having some pretty serious issues. What a blessing we were not more seriously hurt, Laralee's car seat did it's job. Too bad we have to replace it, it's only 5 mos old.
So, Ryan gets out of the truck to look at the damage. The trailer hitch and bumper were useless. How were we getting our trailer home?! It gets better, the driver that hit us was driving his girlfiriend's car and he didn't have proof of insurance. After two days of talking with our insurance and Ryan sitting at the girlfriend's house until she would speak with him, we got the ball rolling. They rented us a car while we thought that Ryan's truck was going to get fixed. Then more bad news...the truck was a total loss. So, with the help of Matt and Lee we found a place to rent a truck to pull the trailer home, to get us back to Georgia while we figure out what to do to replace Ryan's truck. By the way, this whole time we were camped out at our friend's, the Stubbs. Our 2 day stay turned into 7. Thanks to them for their kindness and understanding during our little crisis. We finally got home Friday, Ryan drove the Nissan and I drove the HUGE F-150 and trailer. I have never pulled a trailer before, wow was that an experience.
Here are some pictures of the trucks.
