Trick or Treat



What a great night for trick or treating! The weather was so warm. The warmest I remember. Last year there was so on the ground! My Cheerleader, Princess, and Pumpkin had so much fun and got so much candy. This was Rachel's first time trick or treating and she got the hang of it very fast!! And she couldn't stop eating the candy. As usual, the best part was giving out candy at home. They all screamed and ran to the door every time the doorbell rang.

Halloween Parties

The Halloween weekend is a very busy one! Today we had 3 parties to attend. Ava's school party was first and the only one I took pictures of! It was very exciting because the school let the morning kindergarten go to school in the afternoon so that they could be a part of the school wide parade. It was fun to see the entire school in their costumes. It is also the warmest Halloween that I remember. So HOT standing outside watching the parade. I ran the bingo game during the party. So much fun hanging out with those kiddos!!






After school and a little "rest" to combat the sugar rush, we went to our neighbors for a little party. So much fun and great food. We had to leave way to early to attend Molly's school fundraiser. This is always a great time and a great way to show school support! We didn't fare as well this year as last but we did manage to win a 4 our date night with "free" babysitting! So, tomorrow we have two more parties to attend and of course Trick or Treating on Sunday!
Ah.. EXHAUSTING!!HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Pumpkins





Wednesday night we carved our pumpkins. It seems to get more and more fun each year. The carving kits seem to get more kid friendly ever year. The girls are really starting to get into it. Rachel was grossed out by the "guts" of the pumpkin.

The Circus


On Sunday, my Mom and I took the girls to the "GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH". My parents take the girls every year. I haven't been in years to a circus and had a great time! I was amazed at all the talent. The girls loved all the animal acts. Especially Kelly Ann the elephant painting!!




Molly Update

Mike took Molly for her 4 year check-up last Monday. She weighed in at 33lbs. (35 percentile) and is 3'3.4" (42 percentile). We were hoping that she was closer to 40 lbs. so we can transfer her to a booster seat. No such luck! We will be waiting a while for that move! The poor thing got 5 shots!! The 4 pink band aids seemed to help that pain! She will not take a bath, showers only, because she wants them to stay on! And who can blame her? She thrives on all the attention she is getting!!
Molly is loving school this year! She is becoming quite the artist. Rainbows seem to be her favorite thing to create. And she loves to write her letters. She has taken a sudden and huge interest in reading and she is trying to sound out words! She takes her role as a big sister very seriously and is constantly playing with and mothering Rachel. Our little Sweet Pea. We are so proud of her!!
