Fall + Saturday + Cookies = College Football!!!

We love watching college football and a few years ago made the tradition of cooking football cookies on game day! They don't look like footballs...nothing special about them at all!! We just call them that! They are actually just place and bake Nestle Toll House cookies!!! The kids just think they are extra special ones! We usually grill out too and enjoy our at home tailgating party!!!
Little E watching the cookies bake...Cowboy E doing a cookie dance!!!Noah came up with an idea to get the cookies out. He told Ethan they could lasso them out and here he is demonstrating how!Patience is running out mom!!!Since we've moved to Texas we have started watching the Longhorns play too! It is soooo cute to see Ethan & Noah saying, "hook em' horns!" They are so funny! Of course we still watch our teams from the SEC too (Go Vols and MSU)! This year has been extra fun watching football since Noah is older now and can understand more what is going on. He was yelling "GO Colt McCoy" (quarterback for the longhorns) the other day!! Cracked me up! Of course they have to tackle each other during the game too!!! Loving every minute of it!

Mom You're Embarrassing ME...Ouch!!!

Since Noah started school he has not been to keen on me kissing him at school but hasn't actually said anything. He just acts like it bothers him. So I started doing our goodbye's in the car!

Well yesterday I forgot. I leaned over to kiss him as he was going into the gym. He leaned way over so I was not able to kiss him. I looked inside the gym and his little friends were laughing. So I thought to myself OK got to remember to kiss him in the car.

Then when Noah got home from school he decided we needed to have a talk! He told me that I can NOT kiss him at school. I said why? He said because it is embarrassing and my friends laugh at me. I said OK. He said you can only kiss me at home and only sometimes at church. Ouch! I can't believe we are already to that point! Good grief! I told him OK but to expect lots of kisses at home!!! Of course he has been wiping off the kisses for a long time anyway!

So mommy's kiss your baby's!!! ha! At least Ethan is still a big sugar loving boy! And is always saying mommy I want to hold you! I will enjoy all of it! :)
