Halloween Fun

Here is Quinlan, as Red Riding Hood (thank you Aunt Susie and Emily and Aunt Min), with her pre-school friends. It was a little cold and foggy this morning but the Halloween Parade went off without a hitch.

Here is Reilly, as a lion, with her bff Lucy. Mommy forgot Reilly's shoes so she was running around in her socks. She had a ball though. She wore the costume almost the entire day without issue and everyone thought she was just the cutest little thing (which, of course, she was).

After lunch it was off to St. John Neumann Regional Academy for Max's parade. He made a great Buzz Lightyear ("To infinity and beyond"!). By that time the sun was out and his heavy plastic costume got to be a little warm. After his parade we all had treats in the "gymacafetorium".

Here are our little trick or treaters. We went to about a dozen houses in our neighborhood. EvieLyn was nice enough to hand out candy at our house so we could all go together. After about 5 houses, Max decided he was done and ready to go home. That was ok, Daddy was tired of carrying Reilly anyway. But we have a lot of candy to share. I already ate the sugar babies. I didn't even know they still made them :)

Quinlan celebrates at school

Quinlan also celebrated her birthday with her pre-school friends. She got to be "line leader" and got to bring in the snack of her choice. She and her classmates enjoyed ice cream with rainbow sprinkles AND Quinlan got a birthday crown.

Quinlan turns 5!!

Can you believe it?? Miss Quinlan is 5 years old. We celebrated her birthday with her friends on Saturday, October 20th. She had a Barbie-themed birthday but I was afraid that that cake wouldn't be enough so we had brownie too. She received some wonderful gifts and enjoys playing with all of them.

Fun with food!

What can I say???? She would rather wear her food than eat it. This WAS an M&M.

Fun in the leaves

Reilly, Quinlan and Max play in a pile of leaves. The leaves have been gorgeous around here lately, especially with the warm and sunny days we have had. Now that it is raining they won't last long.

Reilly

Here is Reilly. She is 15 months old now. She runs on her toes, drinks from a sippy and likes to play with her brother's and sister's toys. Here she is on the "banana bike" - which is very, very old. I'm not sure where or who it came from but she can make it go......... backwards.

More fall fun - with pumpkins

Quinlan and Daddy went, with Quinlan's Pre-school friends, to Styer's Pumpkin Patch where they went on a hay ride, picked out a pumpkin and saw farm animals.

Max shows Reilly the pumpkin he picked out at our church "pumpkin patch" which benefits the youth group.

At the church patch Quinlan and Max had their faces painted too!

Fall Fun

We went to Susie & Barney's house for dinner on Saturday, October 13th. Reilly made a new friend (Rocky the dog - she was sooooo excited) and Quinlan did too! Emily would like to be a princess when she grows up too!

spaghetti - yummy!

Miss Reilly likes her spaghetti. She likes eating it AND wearing it. Lately, she has been putting everything in her hair. Some of the food acts as a "styling gel" with amazing hold.
