Halloween

Sycamore Creek held its Halloween party today. This is the first of many opportunities for the kids to wear their costumes. We did not dress Reagan up today because we were afraid she'd bee too warm.

Reagan is just the happiest baby ever. She spends most of her time awake trying to get Danny and Mia's attention-or anyone who is holding her. She coos and smiles and gurgles at us. She still doesn't fuss at all. Mia loves to hold her and lay next to her. She is great about talking to her or giving her a pacifier.
Danny has started fall ball. He has 3 friends on his team, so he is really enjoying this. This will be the last t-ball session until the spring. I think 3 is plenty but he does love it!

Mia's first day of Preschool

Mia had a challenging first day of school. She did not want me leaving her! She has a couple of friends in her class, so I didn't think it would be an issue. Friday went a little bit better. Danny had gym the day I took this picture- I normally would never send him to school looking like this!In case there were any questions about what Danny was going to be for Halloween- he chose Commander Fox from Star Wars. Mia has been watching Alice in Wonderland lately, so she is going to be Alice. I am having a tough time finding an outfit for Reagan.

Kindergarten

Danny has started Kindergarten! He seems to be enjoying it. I don't get much from him as far as what they do all day. I hear about who was what Star Wars character on the playground and what everyone had for lunch. He has a few friends and a neighbor in his class, so we are all trying to piece it together. Mia will start preschool 3 days a week on Wednesday.

Here is a picture of Reagan. We haven't taken too many of her, but she is getting so big! She is probably up to 11 or 12 pounds by now.

Butterfly Festival

Cox Arboretum is a huge park that has a butterfly tent (house) that you can walk through. They have a few festivals throughout the year. This weekend was the butterfly festival, complete with festival food, crafts and music.

Kelly's visit

Here are a few pictures from when my sister and dad came to visit. Kelly and I took the girls to Wegerzyn Garden while my dad took the boys to the Air Force Museum.

Mia's favorites

The kids love getting mail! Today we had a few big packages on our porch (we've received a lot lately and I promise thank you cards are coming!). Aunt Pat sent this for Mia- it was Carolines first ballet recital outfit. Needless to say, Mia thinks it is the greatest thing on earth. I wish you could see the General Greivous Star Wars tattoo on her shoulder.
