This post will be full of lots of things. Let's just say October was extremely busy and I am both happy and sad it is over, ha! Last week I let Amelia take an attempt at eating her yogurt by herself with a spoon.
She was pretty proud of herself
Happy gal
Love this face!
And here is the end result! She loved it.
Wednesday morning was Halloween storytime. There were so many kids!! It was crazy!
This little gal loves the "shaky egg" song.
After a book and a couple songs, the kiddos went trick or treating around the library.
Wednesday afternoon was Halloween bootcamp. Anna sets up a bunch of games for the kiddos and then they win a prize. Here is Colin throwing a rat in a bucket.
Liam balancing to scoop Halloween rubber duckies out of a bin.
Graveyard bowling
Excited about a toy he found in a grab bag
At the end Anna has a bowl full of things and the kids were blindfolded and had to try and get the golden rat.
Liam did find the golden rat and won a special little prize.
This gal just ran around like crazy but looked cute doing it!
Friday the kids and I did a little running around. We made a trip to Starbucks where the kids shared a hot chocolate.
Then we wandered Wal-Mart and finally the pumpkin patch at the church opened. I basically wanted to get some pictures of the kids with some pumpkins which is not easy living here. They sort of cooperated.
Sweet, very tired gal
My babies
That evening was a fall festival at the Lingenfelter Center. We took the kiddos but it was also very crowed. The boys didn't seem to mind but there was basically no room for a stroller. They had lots of games and the kids got plenty of candy!
Colin concentrating on the game
Liam pretty much amazed me at this game. He made the first seven bean bags he threw into the pumpkins. It was a farther than what this picture looks like. Even the lady running the station was shocked, ha!
We had a picture taken of the kiddos
She wanted to walk around but it was way too crowded inside.
So we came outside while the boys jumped in the jump houses. She decided to eat hay.
Stinker
She did realize she wasn't a big fan though

Daddy with the kiddos
After the festival part there was trick or treating at the Gardens. We skipped that since the kids already had so much candy and decided dinner sounded better. Chris got a gift card for Chipotle from his boss since he took all the employees out for lunch and Chris obviously couldn't attend. I thought it was a very cool gesture that they think of him even though he is thousands of miles away. Anyway, the boys wanted to sit by themselves at the bench seats by the window. They thought they were pretty big stuff.
This gal sat with mom and dad and ate well and drank quite a bit of milk, even though she squeezed the box and made a milk fountain. Twice.
Overall our last week of October was crazy eventful but I wouldn't change it for the world!!
