Catching up!

 Kelsey finally had her first haircut! Hard to believe that she is 3 and that this is the first one- she was so excited for it, and had a great time doing it!

For cousin Gabby's birthday in October, we spent the day at Disney Studios.  The girls loved that we got to see Donald and Daisy together!

We had breakfast with the Little Einsteins.  June is one of Kelsey's favorites- this is the picture that she is bringing for show and tell tomorrow to school.

 They have so much fun together!

 Aaron loved Gabby's birthday party at Gymboree- as did Kelsey, I just could not get her  or Gabby to stay still enough to get a picture of them.

 One of our favorite fall activities is to pick pumpkins with Bumpa!

 Keley was very proud of the  carrots that she grew.  We were luck to pick them all last week before we got 8 inches of snow and lost power all week. That is the actual size of the carrot uncut- we planted them in May- I have to imagine that betweeen May and October something more than that would grow.  If that is the normal growth pattern of a carrot, the ones at the store mu 5-6 years old!

 Aaron showing off his walking skills and very excited to do so!

 Kelsey's first day of school from September.  She goes2 days each week and loves every minute of it! Her favorite parts are (in order): snack, checking out the other kids backpacks, and "music and motion" where she has learned to "gallop".

 Another favorite  fall activity- appple picking.  Next year we will remember the we do not need 2 pecks of apples- we had apple overload- but she had so much fun picking them! And Aaron loved them too.

Classic fall picture! Glad I got this in before our  Halloween snow!

Aaron's Birthday and Halloween

Wow! Aaron turned one at the end of October! He is such a funny guy- always into something, especially now that he is walking around an able to get into everything. 

 He loved birthday cake! First time that he had anything like at, and gobbled down a whole piece, as well  as some ice cream to go along with it.

 Even the plate was delicious! And he liked to open the presents too, though Kelsey did most of opening and the toy testing to make sure they were things that Aaron was going to like.

 In searching through the camera we seem to have a lot pictures of Aaron's hairdos.  I did cut it once, but it looked awful, so now we are trying to figure out  how to hold him still enough to cut it again.

Kelsey had an "orange day" party school.  She filled me in the other morning that her teachers fix her hair at school a lot.  Hopefully they did this day too! Daddy can get the ponytails in, but she rips them out on the way in the car :)

 
 The two kids dressed up for Halloween. And then Kelsey below.  She was very disappointed that someone thought  was dressed as moose.  She was a blue butterfly.  I see fairy/butterfly, but not sure about moose?

Aaron was a lizard.  His tail was pretty cute :)

Kelsey and Cameron out trick-or-treating.  She loved every minute of it.  She dragged poor Cameron around his neighborhood! She then came home and sorted out all her candy based "chocolate/no chocolate".  Daddy got all the stuff that was not chocolate.Kelsey went strong most of the night- but poor Aaron was beat!
