We have this stair case that has about 13 stairs and Jaedyn knows how to go up the stairs but doesn't know how to come down sooo I have to put up a gate. You'd think that would work....BUT I guess I thought WRONG!!! See my little stinker:

My Staircase


My smart-stinkerish Baby




The last picture cracks me up because she gives me that look that says:
HMM, Look what I can do Mom!!

Gotta love it!!

The Best Husband of the Year goes to ::
Luther Hargrove


Why you ask???
Because he bought me these things ::

Grill

Kitchen Aid Mixer

New Phone


I am the luckiest girl EVER!!!

I love you honey!!

Jaedyn's 1st Halloween was so much fun!! Although I know baby's 1st Halloween is more for the mom's than the babies because they don't know what's going on, BUT I do know that Jaedyn had fun and she was SOO Cute!!

SEE:


My little Zebra


Jaedyn and Momma


Jae's little Halloween Basket


Such a heart melting picture!! I just love the way they are looking at each other


Trick-or Treat


We went to the church's trunk or treat and she was exhausted by the end, she only went to about 5 cars but she started walking the same day so she walked the whole thing :)
What a trooper!

We were at my parents house and she saw a banana pepper and she grabbed it and started gnawing on it...



Once she finally bit through it...here was her first initial reaction...


It didn't stop her from eating it some more..

Finally it's the Holiday Season!! I love Holiday's and Christmas is my favorite but I do love the Holiday season, Halloween, Thanksgiving, THEN Christmas!!! And now, I love Holidays SOOO much more, now that I have a family of MY own. I can now start making my own family traditions (which I love family traditions) I'm so ECSTATIC!!! I also love that Jaedyn is a very smart girl and advanced that I'm going to celebrate like there's never going to be another Holiday. We're going to Party it up and craft!! I have goals to make it very festive as well!! So the first Holiday that Jaedyn is aware of what's going on (may not know what's going on but is very aware and wants to help wherever she can)

So let the Festivities BEGIN ::
1st thing she experienced was her very OWN 1st Pumpkin!!!
(can you tell I'm excited)

This is how it went ::
I gave her a choice of 6 different colors of tempra paint. I put them in a row and I let her pick 3. She was very patient she picked one color and I took it, then another, and another. So stinkin cute because it was like she knew what to do ;)
Then we stripped her down to her diaper and went outside and this is what happened ::





Off to the bath we went!!!

Isn't she SOOO stinkin' CUTE?!?!??!?!?!?!?!

We have this gate upstairs that is pretty awesome and it was here when we bought the house. Well anyways, I was working upstairs so Jaedyn was up there and I had to run downstairs for a quick second. And this is what I came too...LOL

She was doing her high pitch sound SCREAM!!




We went to Cider Fest...Jaedyn, Me, Amber, Shelby, and Nana!
There's not a lot to say about it except Jaedyn had fun and so did I taking so many pictures.

I'm a picture-a-holic. And I want a Really good camera...One day!






Normally, Jaedyn isn't cuddly when she wakes up!
Normally, she's crazy hyper!
But this time she was super cute and cuddly when she woke up.
And seriously look how SWEET she is:

Granted she did have McDonald's fries!!






Luther got all 4 wisdom teeth out and he swelled up really bad...Hilarious, I must say! They gave him medication that made him EXTREMELY loopy. It was really funny at first I did think he was milking it but I quickly realized not true! He was HILARIOUS!! He can't say that I don't love him because the first day he had to put new gauze in his mouth that would drench in seconds. Yes, that's right I put my fingers putting gauze in his bloody mouth. It was gross but the things a wife and mom will do for there family and I wouldn't take back what I did for him because I love him!




Icing his mouth


Sleeping...His medicine made him so relaxed that he slept a lot

Swollen Face!!

I will say though, seeing and knowing what happened (drilling and such, Luther called it a mini jack hammer) and the after effects (pain) I DO NOT want to get my wisdom teeth out...Only time will tell I guess

It just breaks my heart knowing that Rachael doesn't allow Jonathan to meet his sister Jaedyn or his dad, Luther. Luther is such an amazing dad, I couldn't ask for anybody else better for my kids!! It's really sad that Jonathan is missing out on a father because of how amazing Luther is, he truly is missing out. Hopefully one day Rachael will soften her heart so Jaedyn can meet her older brother and have a relationship with his daddy!!

Every single day I think Jaedyn looks just like her brother. I often tell Luther that too. Luther must have a dominant gene considering I think Jonathan and Jaedyn looks a lot a like! And they both are super cute, after all he is smokin' hot!! :)

I was looking at pictures of Jonathan and Jaedyn and I just can't believe how much they look a like. We don't have hardly any pictures of Jonathan but I think this picture is about 9 months and Jaedyn will be 9 months in 2 weeks.

The BEST dad EVER!!!


Jonathan


Jaedyn



So what do you think? I think they look a lot a like!!!

Conversation that Luther and I had:

Selena: Isn't crazy that tomorrow is 9-11...What were you doing?

Luther: I was in school and we were getting ready to run the mile and I said, "Teacher, we can't run the mile the terrorist will come and get us!"

Selena: YOU DIDN'T SAY THAT...I WAS IN 7TH GRADE

Luther & Emma: Laughing there Butt's off!!!

Selena: You couldn't have said that!

Luther: Why not?

Selena: You weren't in elementary you didn't say that because I was in 7th grade.

(((By this point they are laughing so hard because it doesn't make since. I was thinking that saying Teacher and the Terrorist quote would be something a elementary kid would say and if I was in 7th grade that makes Luther in 11th grade...So big confusion and a really good Laugh)))

On a side note...When I look at pictures or see video clips of the damage and the horrible things that happened to our country, or think of the families that lost family members due to this selfish act, I get so upset and so Angry!! I wish I could just do something to make a difference or knock some sense into people that's saying it was fake or people who talk bad about our country. I feel so blessed to live in a country that we live in although there are trials, not just in our personal life but trials as a country but by far we are the best country and the freedom that we have. I love that I can choose my own religion. I truly feel very blessed!! I would like to say how grateful I am to live in a free country and for people who have fought in this war to show and to protect us and our country. I would like to also say how grateful I am for Paramedic's, Firemen, Police Men, the Military, and everyone else who protect us!! God Bless the USA!!!


So have I mentioned before how much I LOVE Luther's job?!?! Well I do because he is a freakin' Rock Star!! He won us Chiefs tickets and not only were they tickets but they were AWESOME tickets because we were row 6 behind field goal..We were sooo close that we were closer to the field at the Chiefs game than you would be at a High School Game..That's so Awesome!!

(Oh and we were on TV)







This is seriously the cutest baby EVER!!! Look how happy she is...She loves playing at the pool. No matter how crabby she is...I will take her to the pool and it turns into the best day of her life. She likes it even better when she can crawl around..She loves it!!


At the Parade they threw succors and I thought, why not give it to Jaedyn?!?!

She was a PRO!!

She immediately popped it in her mouth and then took it back out like she knew what she was doing
