Halloween

Halloween I got to get off from work early. We decided to do a family of skeletons, although for dance class Brie got to dress up as Alice in wonderland and Rae was a duck.  We dressed up and made our eyes black and white faces. I made bones necklaces and put bones in the girls hair. We took them to see great grandma and grandpa Wellard, and grandma nestler. Then we took the girls down old town and to Nana's work. We then went to our trunk or treat and dinner.

Pumpkin patch and Pumpkin carving

          October 19 we made plans to go to the swore farms pumpkin patch. My girls were sick but were troopers. We met cindi, Jed, Carden, Gannen, marcela and her two girls. We got to go with Nana, Auntie, and Aunt Julie Derek, Kerry, and jaz. It was a lot of fun, we got to feed the turkeys, play games, do a kids hay maze, corn maze and do a tractor ride to pick out our pumpkins. It was a lot of fun the maze had fun questions to direct you which way to go.


Later that week we carved pumpkins. The girls loved coloring and putting stickers on there pumpkins. Mike carved Albert Einstein and I carved a spider.


Girls update

The girls are learning more and more. Within the last few months Brie has some funny sayings. She tells you "it's not Bries favorite", "take the skin off"(which is take the crust off bread), "what the heck you talking about". One day she told me "mom I have a haircut like you, and sissy has a haircut like daddy". Also "you make me crazy". She is quick to pick things up and repeat, stupid is a bad word in our house. She can be very challenging, but so sweet too. She is a great teacher to her sissy, they are best friends or enemies. Bries vocabulary is growing, she loves being in dance and picks up quick. a funny story a few weeks ago we were at Nana and Papas and Brie was feeding chickens w/Papa. All of a sudden I saw Papa running toward the house. I assumed Brie had to go potty so I yelled from the deck sit her down and she will run. Well Papa put her on the grass and all of a sudden Brie pulled down her pants and peed on the grass. Papa laughed and said "I didn't teach her that". I ran toward her trying to stop her but was too late. crazy girl it was one for the books.

Rae says happy, binky, help me, here momma, auntie, sticky, hello, hat, open, please, thank you, and lately chocolate. She has learned to defend herself by saying no, also wants to follow sissy everywhere.we had to take the girls in 2weeks ago and both had double ear infections. We are all getting better now. Brie was 24.2 lbs and Rae was 17.2 lbs. Rae also got two more top teeth and top molars. She is quite the copy cat and repeats words really well. We got rid of the binky on Saturday Nov 2. She cries a little but has done pretty well. I tried cutting it and she cried worse so we just threw them away and she cries a little but is fine. we got her second flu shot on 11/11.
