The day after my unforgettable 27th birthday, Nola and Cai had a little play date.

They played with some hats. It was adorbs, as usual.

I love my sweet friend and little No-la-la.

I made Nola her little Christmas skirt. Cutie patootie bootie.

We did some swinging by the lake.

 Little Miss Nola just did NOT want to get off the swings!

I had to post this photo because she's so cute in her little sweater jacket crying! haha!

 I love her crafty talented mama and her bow clip skills.

We played "Stick" toss.

The time we get to spend with Steph and Nola is always sweet and WAY too short!

 Can't wait til baby Erskin Alfred Robnett is born!

{No, Erskin Alfred Robnett is not his real name. Charlie is being a punk and won't let Stephanie tell me his name... SO um... I'm gonna call him Erskin Alfred until I know his name. Please tell me I didn't guess it!}

Quickest Visit EVER!

Right before Thanksgiving, my bff from college flew in with her precious little LaLa and hubs. Cai and I picked them up from the airport. I squeezed between two carseats in the backseat while Charlie drove to his parent's home. Thankfully it wasn't too far away! That was all the time I got this trip, but I'm excited they will be coming home for longer around Christmas! It was just enough time to act like the sleep whisperer that I am...

And gaze at these toes in some pretty darling little socks and those stripey leggings...

The bad picture quality is because I was literally twisted around in the middle of two carseats...have you ever sat in the middle of two carseats AND tried to focus on taking a picture semi-manually? You should try it! JK! I enjoyed ANY time I get with this sweet family! That's for sure!
