My Little Baker

Gma Lou sent us home with some Halloween cupcakes and today was the day we made them. Kayleigh loves to bake!! She is very patient and follows all the directions very well. She even knows not to eat the batter, because it has germs from the eggs! I know- I am no fun! I did let her sneak some frosting!

Happy Birthday Luke!

Tonight we headed out to Schnepf Farms to celebrate Luke’s 3rd birthday. We had a private bonfire with hotdogs, chili, and smores. We picked out pumpkins and played with good friends.

I am always so tempted to take sweet Bryce home with me. Love this boy!

Taylor was very serious about her pumpkin organization. She worked really hard on this pumpkin line. When some little girls came and grab one she was a bit ticked off, but was able to fix the hole.

AZ State Fair

Gma Mona planned our annual trip to the AZ State Fair. Kayleigh could go on rides all day long!

We first went to the petting zoo. Taylor did not love how “friendly” (aka aggressive) the animals were. But Kay and Addie didn’t mind.

I let the girls go on this roller coaster all by themselves! Taylor said she had fun but when I asked if she wanted to go on more she said “No thanks!”

Kayleigh was trying to talk Daddy into going on even more rides! She could have stayed there all night!

Poor Little Sister

Taylor loves her big sister so much and always tries to be just like her. Both girls love my bed, so I usually let them take their afternoon naps there. Well, Kayleigh decides to tell Taylor that it is super cool to sleep on the floor. Of course little Taylor does what her sister says is cool. Kay lasted about 5 minutes on the floor, but poor Taylor took her whole nap on the floor.

When I told Kaykay to tell sister to go back in bed she replied, “Why? I like having the whole bed to myself!”

Girls Only Road Trip

We spent a few days in California to visit Great Gma Lou and Uncle Mike. Carrie, Addie, Gma Lisa, Kay, Tay, and I all went! Both car rides went pretty smooth. Thank goodness to multiple dvd players. Addie is in a bit of an Elmo phase and my girls never agree on anything. We had a great time with Grandma Lou. She spoils the girls rotten and they love every minute of it! They first got Halloween presents consisting of books, movies, and of course some candy.

The little girls got a little delirious in the car. They would scream and laugh, and tried to eat their toes…010 009

Grandma knows her girls and their love for cookies. She had Halloween sugar cookies and made frosting for the girls to decorate them with. There were so many cookies that Gma Lisa had to finish the decorating, I don’t think she minded.

The weather was so much cooler there, which was a nice change. Carrie and I walked the girls to the park.

The girls love their Gma Lou so so much and talk about her all of the time! Their favorite part of the trip was the cuddle time with their Great Grandma!

Coolest 2 Year Old Ever!

Miss Taylor loves to wear sunglasses and loves purple. So when we spotted these shades we knew she had to have them! She wouldn’t take them off all day, even indoors.
