2017 - Week 41

October 9.
A hodge podge of a day: paleo cookies, books and dressing up, dance class and making a HUGE mess of tortillas for dinner.

October 10.
Date with Radford to the bookstore while sister was at school - he loved all the giant stuffed animals. Nora was random in her afternoon requests: a halloween craft, wearing her halloween costume for book reading and wearing her superman cape while painting. You do you girl.

October 11.
These two are sooooo silly. Church then a stop off at Toys R Us for new umbrellas for the kiddos. And of course trying out the cars that were just their size...Nora asked for one for Christmas saying she can park it on the curb like momma and daddy do! Ha!

October 12.
Errands with bother while sister was at school - hanging with a narwal and testing out ALL the trucks at HomeGoods. Sister played in mommas old dance recital costumes during Rad's nap. Flash back to many, many years ago!!

October 13.
Today we threw one of our stuffed animals a birthday party, went to BJ's for the weekly grocery run, "painted" the entry hall with spatulas and played at the park with daddy. Overall, a good day!

October 14.
Fun day at Baugher's with the cousins, G and Pops! We rode pony's, picked apples, petting animals, jumped in the moon bounce and enjoyed a meal out. Rounded out the day with carving pumpkins at home with daddy. They loved seeing them lit up!

October 15.
Relaxing day of sleeping in and hanging with the family watching football. Everyone was in silly moods and momma didn't take many pictures.

2017 - Week 42

October 16.
Park workout in one of the first COLD days of the season...they enjoyed the rainbow theme. Then playing at home for the afternoon - baby dolls, snacks and a little karaoke.

October 17.
Brother and I did some birthday shopping and park digging while Nora was at school. Today she insisted on wearing momma's scarf because she "is so grown up". During Rad's nap she wanted to try on all her snow gear and make a "triangle" craft...this owl was the best (quickest) one I could come up with.

October 18.
Church then some park playtime. Sister asked for an Elsa braid today. Love it! And they love selfies. After bedtime momma stayed up way too late making snacks for Nora's class the next day.

October 19.
Today Nora requested 2 braids so she could look like Anna. We went to the mall to get my watch fixed and they loved playing at the Apple store and the play area. We did a quick stop at Webers farm to enjoy some candy sticks and slides in the sunshine.

October 20.
Waiting for packages - only was to do that is naked with shoes and spatulas out the mail slot. Ha! We had a lazy day at home playing, painting, and relaxing. We escaped for a later afternoon park workout and play time with Daddy.

October 21.
Long walk downtown meant that everyone wanted a treat by the end of the day. Great day relaxing with the family.

October 22.
Happy 2nd Birthday to our sweet boy Radford!! He enjoyed sprinkle donuts, too many presents, a blue cars cake and fun time with family. Thanks to the cousins, Aunt Hil, Uncle Patrick, G and Pops for helping us celebrate in the afternoon.

2017 - Week 43

October 23.
Brother's 2 year check up went great (given the shots). He's 30# (85%) and 34" (50%). He's changing and growing so much every day. He talks a TON, is a few weeks into potty training and still loves his momma the most. Sister even got a fly shot - which she wasn't happy about. Spent the afternoon playing with brother's new train tracks and finding some chalk drawings to explore while sister was in dance class.

October 24.
Brother joined me for a workout and wanted to participate. Sister was all about posing today - before school and again after her random request for me to quickly make her a cow costume. HA! Painting before dinner tonight.

October 25.
Church, lunch date out and skipping naps made for interesting attitudes all afternoon. By the time we escaped to the library in the late afternoon everyone was exhausted!

October 26.
Brother and I ventured to Storyville while sister was at school. He loved his alone time with mommy today! Nora was super excited to show us the mask she made in art class and read the books we got from the library the week before.

October 27.
Park play date in the morning...followed by errands - new undies for all, a quick stop at Ulta where they had to play with the sample (eek!), and ChickFilA icecream on the porch.

October 28.
Lazy day at home - dressing up, enjoying out new haunted house coloring fort, and practicing feeding babies!!

October 29.
Brother spent a majority of the day in a bad mood...but took a great nap and woke up all snuggly. Nora and I spent nap time practicing her alphabet and doing a makeover - she did her own nails and I did her hair and makeup. She loved being pampered.
