Dr. Saigel

Becky got Saigel a doctor's kit for Christmas. Needless to say, she loves it!! She's been doctoring all of her baby dolls and her daddy & me for days! Isn't she a little doll in her lab coat and mask?


Red Neck Christmas Parade

Last Saturday we took Addison, Riley & Saigel to the Mayflower parade, and experienced a real Red Neck Christmas Parade. Complete with lawnmower floats, a car driving with a reindeer strapped to the top and hunters walking beside (don't worry, it wasn't Rudolf), and Santa's sleigh being pulled by Harley's. Below are some of the pictures. Saigel's picture with Santa will be posted later (as soon as we photo shop out the cigarette smoking lady in the background!!)

Enjoy!

Last week we went Memphis to do some last minute Christmas shopping with our friends Todd & Paige. Little did we know that we would soon be adopting a new family pet. I knew I was in trouble when Cindy spotted the large display in the middle of the mall selling Sugar Gliders. She has wanted one for about 10 years. She was able to withstand the temptation...well at least for a day. The next evening we where driving back to Memphis to pick up our new pet. You may be asking,"what in the world is a Sugar Glider?". I could give you all the info, but you would be better off to check out the pictures below of this cute little critter. Our new pet's name is Daisy, and Saigel has already become quite attached. She has been reading books to Daisy, and making sure that we take good care of her. Daisy stays with us a lot (usually in a pouch around Cindy's neck). She is getting more comfortable with us every day, and hopefully will enjoy her new home as much as we are enjoying her.

A Day At The Circus

Today we went to Ringling Brothers & Barnum and Bailey's Circus with our friends the West's and the Herring's. We have been looking forward to this for weeks. Saigel especially has been thinking about the animals that she might see at the circus. Thankfully we saw the two she spoke of the most: the elephants, and the lions (actually tigers, but despite our telling her that, she insists she saw lions). Saigel also had her first experience with Cotton Candy. It took a while to convince her it was ok to eat, but after her first taste she was definately hooked. The only downfall that she saw to the cotton candy was the mess it left on her fingers. We left the circus with sticky hands, a giant circus coloring book, and a lot of great memories.

Playing in the leaves

Just thought I'd post a few pics of Saigel playing in the leaves and "walking" her dog! There are still tons of leaves on the trees, so I'm sure there will be many more days like this one in our future! I can't wait!!
