Big Kid Beds!

After another fit-filled nap time of Olivia trying to climb out of her crib, we made the switch.  Tonight is their first night.  They were very excited and practiced "sleeping" in them all afternoon.  We put a baby gate in the hallway, so they can't get anywhere even if they get their doors open.  I'm really hoping this is an easy transition. 

Olivia would not sit still for her picture.  So here she is doing her woobie dance. 

Owen was very proud to pose!

iPhone Pictures Catch Up

I never even blogged Trick or Treating!  We went to my parents cul de sac and got in most of our trick or treating before dark.  We made it to about 6 houses - and walked with my cousin Emily and Aunt Debbie.  O&O loved it, and are still working through their candy.  

Bad Mom got them all excited to go the library on Wednesday, just to realize it closes early on Wednesdays.  So off to Culver's we went.  Yes, Owen chose vanilla.  Who is this kid?

MJ and a Farmer

We did a trial run for Halloween tonight.  In between toddlers throwing fits, we actually went to 2 houses (who were expecting us, since it's not Halloween). 

Mimi made this awesome tractor costume!

Hudson as an adorable Frankenstein!

Owen loved the tractor, but didn't wear it when we actually went trick or treating.  Papa carried it along behind. 

The Great Pumpkin

We didn't let a little stomach virus keep us from our annual pumpkin patch visit.  The same virus has taken over the Bakalars - so we missed them this year!  But we still had a great time!

Olivia and her buddy, my cousin Emily. Once Olivia gets through her initial shyness, Emily is always her favorite

And because I'm feeling sentimental....

Here's a little preview of Owen's Halloween costume.  And the barn - that's the box his boots came in, how awesome is that??
