Playing outside

Getting bigger(er)

Apparently having two kids makes you more tired than you thought possible. So, we'll be trying to make up for lost time. Here are some pictures with kiddo the younger!

Catching up

There's really more than I could possibly cover in one post, so I think I'll just go with a belated happy 1st and 3rd birthday to my favorite hooligans, and we'll pick up from here.

For the joint birthday party, we all went to the zoo on October 8th. Aunt Hannah and Aunt Aubrey brought Mara & Jeffrey and Samuel & Lillian, respectively, and we all hit the zoo for a couple of hours. The elephants were a hit with Naomi, as were the apes and large cats. Evelyn soaked it all in and was upset that she didn't get to run around much. Afterwards, we went to Aunt Aubrey's house for naps, which only Evy took, and play time, which I think everyone enjoyed. I made some sad snickerdoodles (just weren't as good as they should have been, bad cooking, mama!) and Aunt Aubrey made popcorn in the air.popper, which fascinated all under 5. Pictures to follow when I figure out how to get my phone to cooperate with blogger.

Getting bigger

Our family just got over a shared illness that The youngest thankfully avoided.  I think she's in a pretty good mood, though.

Cups!

Playdate with OCD friends!

Dinner with cousins

Nomi and Kate are finding the best toys. Evy is fascinated.

Orange!

This one really thinks she's ready to eat. It's getting harder to say no.

Upright nap time

Fell asleep watching a movie

And funny hats

I think this is one of the main reasons to have kids.

Ascii toilet training

New app and new kiddo on the toilet.  She's getting good at this.
