2nd lost tooth! - October 29

Kate lost her 2nd tooth tonight. It was loose, she bit into something at school and it was really loose. I mean, really loose. So I pulled it out in the tub!  Looks like the tooth fairy will be visiting tonight!! And as she pointed out, that's 2 teeth in October!  Yay Kate!!

Happy 8th birthday Molly!-October 29

Today is Molly's 8th birthday!  We woke up, sang happy birthday and gave her a banana. We love you Molly!!!

Fall Festival

We met our friend Shelly and her son Cayden at a Fall Festival this weekend. It was very low key, but the kids all had fun seeing the animals, riding a hayride & riding the horses!

20 Months Old

Chase turned 20 months old yesterday! It is so hard to believe that Brynn was this age when we had Chase!  He is still doing great & making us smile & laugh everyday. He is developing his own personality & he is really just a joy to be around.  He didn't want to leave the sticker on his shirt for this picture, but he wanted to get his picture taken. He still doesn't eat too much, but he loves his gubbies, or gummy snacks. And pizza.  And any candy or cookie.  He says anything and everything the girls says. He runs around like crazy and jumps and climbs all over the place. Such a love bug!

Kate's picture Day

Kate wore a dress and wore her hair down- must be picture day!  She looked gorgeous. And sooo old. :(. 

Outifts

I love how excited these guys get over their outfits and showing them off.  I thought that they looked adorable today. Brynn has worn a Halloween shirt every day last week and this week.  And we plan on Halloween outfits every day next week too!  Overboard, I know!

Carving Pumpkins

One of favorite traditions is to sit outside and carve our pumpkins. We let each child draw a picture and we carve it, except for Kate's- she does it on her own. Here we are today carving pumpkins.

Columbus Day weekend

We had such a fun long weekend!  On Friday, we went back to our youths and had Little Caesars pizza and crazy bread party. Saturday, I ran in a 5K. I came in 8th in my age group and 78th overall out of 214 runners. It benefited breast cancer so I was happy to run it. Tough conditions with the wind. That afternoon we met our friends at Linvilla. We go every year so I love our little tradition. Sunday I took the girls and Chase to the zoo and on Monday, we played at the park and played dress up with the clothes we just got from friends. 

Princess shoes

Even Chase still wishes he was in Disney!

We went back to Magic Kingdom for one last visit. 2 days was perfect.I think we hit every ride and did a few multiple times.

I think that this was our 3rd time on the Ariel ride- we loved it!

After dinner, we all went back to Magic Kingdom.  It was so fun to be with friends and do some rides.  We had such a GREAT trip!We were all so sad to leave, and can't wait to go back. Chase had a ball-he rode all of the rides and was such a trooper.  He warmed up to the characters and danced his little heart out. Brynn was in total HEAVEN.She's a princess lover so this trip was the trip of a liftime for her. We timed it just right with Kate- she's growing out of the princess thing, but still liked it. She was able to do some of the big rides with Rich like Splash Mountain, Thunder Mountain, Space Mountain and Tower of Terror, which she HATED!!! Can't wait to go back!!!
