More Fall Fun!

More cider mills! More apple pies! More trick-or-treating! More GG visits!

Yes please!!! (or as Evi would say, Uh Huh PEAS!!!)

Girl's Night Out!!! Woot!!!

Bet you didn't guess it included dancing princesses & cotton candy. Oh, but it did. It did. And might I say, it was still quite fabulous.

Apples, Pumpkins & Cider Oh My!

We've spent the last few weeks hitting all our our favorite fall haunts : ) Number one was a trip with the Fishers to the cider mill for apple and pumpkin picking. The following day the girls whipped together a couple of their world-famous tough-crusted apple pies : ) It was unseasonably warm and the first time we've ever worn shorts to the cider mill!

Nanny Jessi's Wedding!

We had a wonderful time celebrating Jessi & Randy's wedding earlier this month. Jessi babysits the girls, several of their friends and is Luke & Wyatt's full time nanny. She's amazing and the kids LOVE her to pieces! Unfortunately I forgot my camera for the ceremony and don't have photos of Luke as the ringbearer but still managed to snag a few photos from the reception.

Our 18 Monther

Dear Evi,

I'm sorry mommy is not keeping up as well as I did with your sister. Believe me, I feel guilty about it almost daily. Will that admission keep you from harassing me for it when you are a teenager? Probably not, but it was worth a try : ) Love you little bean!

Weight- 22lbs, 13oz

Height - 32 1/4"

So get this, she weighs less and is taller then Sophia at 18 months. How? I do not know because I could have sworn that Soph was still tiny at that age. I think my swiss cheese brain not only looses memories through the holes but it also alters them, skews them and then flips them

around. See, now this is why I have a blog. Not for anyone but my tired old self.

Evi's vocabulary is expanding by the day. It's still a little tough to understand but she has some favorites...like "CHEESE" when she is having her photo taken or taking one with the play camera. She's also a huge fan of "NO". Her yes is actually a "Uh, huh" and when she poops she comes to you and whispers gibberish while pulling at her pants. Darling. She also loves to mock me. I can't tell if it's love and admiration by way of copying, or just plain mean pre-teen like tendencies : ) Let's see, what else...she is still perfecting her scowl (see below) but has the cheesy grin down pat. She loves to dress up in Sophia's dress up clothes and do anything her big sis is doing. She is still quite determined and hard headed but also hysterical and silly too. I'm excited to see what's up next for our little bean.
