Grandma and Papa

.



We got to go to the coolest train exhibit at the arboretum when Grandma and Papa came to visit. I am fairly certain if Dillon had the option of staying there to live with the trains he would have traded us in in a second. It was lots of fun having Grandma and Papa stay with us for a whole week. (notice the train that says Thompson Hine, I guess it was meant to be)

Grammy and Poppy

We went to the Family Fun Fest with Grammy and Poppy, it was lots of fun. Dillon, with a mouth full of apple. found this fluffy caterpillar and Grammy took a little video of him playing with it. I love the Fall and all the good times and memories that come with it. I am so grateful that my kids have lots of wonderful grandparents that cherish the moments they get to spend with their grand kids.

Charlee Eats The Cake

Just a clip of Charlee eating her cake.
Happy Birthday Charlee!!!

Every Day

Every morning at 7am, if I'm lucky, this is how my day starts.

After an hour or so it's out the door and the transformation is complete.

Dillon had his best friend Dru over today, isn't she a cutie? In the car, on the way to preschool this morning, they were discussing the difference between limos and taxis, as always airplanes came up in the conversation when Dillon asks Dru if she has big airplanes or small airplanes at her house. And, as always, her answer was small airplanes. What a simple life.

Charlee wants so badly to walk. Here she goes. "I think I can do it."

"I'm really doing it."

" I DID IT!!" Charlee can take 8 steps now.

Molly brought home her school pictures today, they are super cute. I'll try to post them tomorrow.
Molly also colored a beautiful picture that was framed and hung in the office at her school. Another parent informed me of this and after going in to view it I was very impressed. When I asked her about it she told me she was trying to make it look romantic, a word she is not fully familiar with yet. When she brings it home I'll post it so you can see it. My sweet little artist.



Hey Sheri and Mike, look what they have done to the house next door, it really looks nice. What a big transformation.

Fun Day

So Dillon discovered my nesting doll today and didn't put it down for hours, that's when he found a flashlight.
Charlee found a new passion for pulling the sippies out of the drawer one by one, sucking on each one, and throwing them down onto the floor. And Molly, who didn't have school today, made the cutest headband, all by herself.
I got to make two new flower clips for the girls to add to their fast growing collection. I also got to call a plumber to deal with the clog in the kitchen sink, got to love the home warranty. But most important, I got to vote. Fun Day.

Halloween

I love Halloween, its the only day of the year when I know ahead of time what my kids will be wearing. Thank you to GG for the great costumes...... I mean I made them myself
