Happy Thanksgiving

We hope everyone has had a Happy Thanksgiving! It's crazy that November has come and gone. We had a great month - full of friends, family, and lots going on! The girls are the best of friends and now sharing a room together! So far so good - a few nights of giggling after bedtime hours...but for the most part they feel so comfortable sharing a room and LOVE their new playroom! We enjoyed our trip to Pennsylvania to see Gramma and Grampa Bee and the whole gang for Thanksmas. We really enjoyed meeting our baby cousin Owen. He is such a dollie and we love snuggling up with him. Especially Kate - Kate loves her babies.... and loved holding sweet Owen! The girls are very excited for Christmas and so are we. It's going to be a Disney Christmas for sure - they are asking for every princess, every dress, and we are just enjoying the holiday season already! We will get our tree this coming weekend! Emma continues to enjoy school, her teachers, and her friends....AND is very excited for Ballet that starts in January. She loves dancing to the Rockettes (See video below). Kate also enjoys dancing and following around big sis Emma. She too is excited for Mom and Me Gymanstics that starts in January. Mike continues to stay busy with school, work, and being a great daddy!! I am looking forward to the holiday break - 2 full weeks!!! With my girls! only 12 more days to go! Enjoy your families this holiday season!
Love, The Barratt Fam

Happy October!

October went so fast! We had a busy but really fun month (check out the pictures below!). We enjoyed the pumpkin patch and trick or treating of coarse! Emma was Sleeping Beauty this year and Kate was a pink poodle! Kate didn't want to dress up, but as soon as she did and got out there with the BIG KIDS - she was on a roll! She didn't want us to hold her, help with her trick or treat bag or help her pick out her candy! Little Miss Independent! We also enjoyed our annual trip up to Helen, Georgia with the family! We enjoyed a night out for Oktoberfest AND a day/night in watching football! It was fun playing with baby Nicholas too! Emma and Kate both enjoyed playing peekaboo and making Nicholas laugh! (see the video below!) Emma also finished up her first season of Soccer! She enjoyed running around this season and playing! The best part for Emma was getting her TROPHEY! She's slept with her trophy every night since she's gotten it! Think we may try gymnastics or ballet next!

We are also 'testing' out the girls sleeping in the same room together. They have become REALLY close and love being with each other. We'll see how they do. Nap time has been a little rough because all the girls want to do is PLAY with each other, but hopefully they'll use their new room to sleep and their new PLAYROOM to PLAY~ stay tuned!
Enjoy your November and the cooloer weather!
Go Bucks! Go Irish!
Love, The Barratt Family
