Fall Break in Pictures

Adam's Fall Break was two weeks this year. Which is awesome. Before hand, I thought it seemed like a long time. But it flew by! He was actually pretty busy, but we loved the extra time he was able to home. Before the break, I made a "Fall Break Bucket List." We did pretty good. There were only a couple things we didn't get to do and that's just because the weather didn't cooperate. We did some fun planned activities and also a lot of hanging out at home.

Abi loves "reading" to Madi. It is so precious how Madi just smiles at her the whole time.



happy girl!



sleepy girl! ha!

One day over break we carved our pumpkins. It was Abi's first time and she thought it was great. It took a lot of coaxing to get her to scoop out the pumpkin guts though. She did it a few times, but wasn't a huge fan. But she loves going out and lighting the candles after dark.

ta-da!

On Thursday of break, our favorite little stinker Eli came down for a sleepover! We had plans to go to Zoo Boo on Friday but it was really cold and rainy. Everyone was bummed! But those two can have fun no matter what their doing.

 A little Halloween artwork. I love that Abi's old enough to like this kind of thing now.
(And nooo, I did not get this idea off Pinterest. I used to do it when I taught Kindergarten)

Abi is such a bookworm! Pretty much everyday she sits in her reading chair,
and reads every single book in the basket. It drives me crazy that there are constntly
book all over the floor. But it is a teacher's dream come true to raise a kid who loves reading!

Madelyn has got a serious case of the pudgies.
Someday she will probably hate me for this picture. But I absolutely
laugh out loud each time I see it! At 2 months old, she's wearing 6 month
sleepers and I can barely snap her 3 month onesies! We also had to move
her up to size 2 diapers.



I cannot get enough of this happy and easy-going baby!
She is always quick to smile and pretty content as long as her belly is full and her diaper is clean.
