And November Fun Begins!

This week has been a bit more mellow than we have had for a while. We have also been working on getting some frames up (finally...takes me 14 months to get poor Lorelei in a frame on the wall) so have not had much that was blog worthy. Have been taking a few pictures randomly so this will be a bit of a hodgepodge for you.

Another Sunday jumper. Just love getting her dressed up. She was her Dad's shadow while we were trying to make lunch. Always underfoot. :)










Enjoying the glow necklace from Grandma. This was one of Brad's usual Halloween traditions. We waited until the day after since we were going with the other kids, plus its good to spread out the excitement.









Eating the frosting off the cookie. :)








New bib that should cover everything! Hopefully no more stains! We are only on the second day of using it so we'll see how it holds up. :)












We had our usual playgroup with MOMS today. We got to go to a new park and it was a lot of fun (minus the daddy long legs that freaked me out a bit). Had to include this picture because she looks so old! I got her dressed today and had one of those "oh my you look so grown up" moments.



Peek-a-boo behind the tree. Melissa trying to blow bubbles as the flock of children surrounds her. She is so good about bringing sand toys, balls, bubbles, chalk. Going to have to take some notes and start doing that as well! :)



Just love this one.






I was trying to get a pic of the girls together. Lily happily sat down for me and then this is all I could get before Lorelei started trying to push her off - yikes. Sorry Lily!




Much happier to have the step to herself. :)

Always a great day when Lorelei can happily play outside for a couple of hours. So glad there are so many great parks around here to enjoy.

Been working on writing down highs so I don't forget to have a decent amount this time!

Low: taking forever to get the pictures all organized and printed and still waiting to get the beach ones since they take longer!

Highs: Watching geese fly right over our head in our jammies (and cherishing it because most moms are getting ready and taking their kids to daycare at that time), Lorelei handing a ball back to baby Luke that he had dropped without me even telling her to (it was like you realize your kid actually cares about others without you scolding them), sugar cookies, listening to Brad and Lorelei during bath, awesome smelling candle, steakhouse bread (and only 99 cents!), figuring out why our internet was flaky and now not having any more problems with it!, my sister who usually loves black and white refusing to make our pictures like that because "we can't steal the colors out of rainbow land.", Lorelei pointing to her eye and saying "eye" and then mouth and saying "mow"- SO EXCITING
