Finally, an update!!!

Alright, I know, I'm behind on updating the blog again.  Sorry!  It seems like the weekends that I'm out-of-town are the weeks that the blog updates are delayed.  The end of summer means the end of camping season so, I should be able to keep the blog updated more frequently from now on.

Here is what has been happening around here for the last two weeks...

The Fall season is just about here.  It's my favorite time of the year.  I've slowly started pulling out some of the Fall decorations for around the house.  I love the warm days and cool nights, the beautiful Fall sights (leaves changing colors), sounds (football games) and smells (casseroles and harvest desserts from the oven)!  As the days get cooler, please make sure you have a jacket packed in your childs bag for when we play outside.

We had a surprise visit from Mamah, Norah and Aleena.  The girls had fun playing with Drew and Luke who were over that day also.  They had lots of fun playing downstairs together. 



Everyone played so nicely!

The girls absolutely LOVED Parker too!  Norah was in heaven when she got to hold Parker on the couch. 

Norah proudly holds Parker.

Parker loves Mamah and Mamah loves Parker!

Drew and Luke were back to see us last Wednesday also.  It's so nice having them here.  Rocco was here for a little while also but left early due to not feeling well a little later.  Alex was here for the afternoon (now that he goes to preschool on Wednesday mornings).

Luke, Drew and Rocco have fun with the Toy Story toys.

The cutest thing happened on Wednesday afternoon. As I was reading our book of the week to the boys, Parker (who was playing contently in the background) suddenly became very interested in what the rest of us were doing. She started to "squirm" her way towards the boys and listen to the story right along with them!

Here she comes...

She finally made it up to them and I sat her right with the boys.  She was happy as can be sitting there with them, listening to the story too!  It was so cute!!!

...and here she is!

I had to include these two pictures of her also.  I love her big blue eyes!

Look at those huge blue eyes and those LONG lashes!

Parker loves her puffs!

Finally, I had the pleasure of taking care of just Kiera last Friday.  It was so much fun spoiling her by having her all to myself for the day.  She is walking all over the place now!  She loved the playhouse.  I love the curls in the back of her head!


Such a big girl!

Love that smile!!!

This week will be a busy one.  Kiera will be back for another day with us.  Alex will celebrate his 4th birthday this Thursday.  We will also warmly welcome Jackson who will be joining us for the first time this Thursday.  Drew and Luke will also be back on Friday.  Looking forward to lots of fun with the children in the next few days!  Stay tuned for (hopefully more frequent) updates!
