Halloween

I've been a bit behind on the posting, I seem to forget how busy work makes me! Fall is one of my favorite times of the year, so we have been making the most of it! 

We enjoyed a fun morning at the pumpkin patch. Choosing just the right ones!

She refused to look at the camera :-)

We then headed home to carve. Our little girl was, of course, all about the goop and had her hands inside the pumpkins, flinging seeds all over. (Sorry these pictures are not in any order)

She found all the pumpkins in our house and lined them up. She wouldn't let us take the pumpkins outside, we had to wait until she was asleep :-)

The finished projects!

The goop!

Digging around to find all that gooey stuff

We then headed to Amy's on Halloween to enjoy some neighborhood trick or treating. It was so fun to see all the kids and their excitement, we were pretty much running from house to house. I forgot my camera so got no shots of Callie......bad mom, I know! Here's a group shot of most of the kiddos.....thanks shauna!

The gang 

Before Halloween, Callie and I headed to a local farm to enjoy horses, rides, hay, and yummy treats! Callie and I had a blast.

Rolling and Reading

Callie rolls ALL over the place!!! One of her favorite places to end up is her bookshelf. Look what I found! As a side note, it looks like one of our cats is finally accepting that Callie is part of the family (or atleast, she isn't going anywhere) and has become very tolerant of her. She lets Callie "pet" her and will even walk up to Callie (which, if you know this cat, is VERY unusual - there are some people who still have never seen her). The other day when I was getting Callie from her nap this was outside her door. Apparently the cat loves Callie enough to bring her toys.

Another Plane Ride

So, Callie and I spent my spring break in Pennsylvania. It was a wonderful trip and Callie just LOVED being spoiled by all her aunts and uncles, cousins, and grandmas! (she was a bit in shock when we came back home and she was stuck with just mom and dad - she also took a two hour nap the day we got back, which she has never, never (and probably never will again) done, traveling sure is exhausting!). I was a bit nervous about the very long plane ride, but besides not eating at all, Callie did fabulous! Although, she never really did understand why she couldn't grab the people sitting next to us or in front of us. Even though she got sick on the way back, she was still a wonderful traveler. She loved sitting with Grandma and looking out the plane window (yuck!). We met Grandma in Chicago - at that point in time both Grandma and Callie needed a snuggle, so they spent part of our layover cuddling up in the airport. (sorry, I took these with my cell phone) Looking out the ...

Mothers Day Weekend

We had amazing weather for Mother's Day weekend and tried to enjoy every minute of the summer. On Sunday, Callie and I ran the color run. A 5k through Seattle which involved a lot of dust and color. It was a lot of fun and  I was super proud of her and how she pushed herself. Before the race. Shirts are still white and hair is still normal color. We ran with one of Callie's good friends and her mom.  Bubbles! That was a highlight for Callie, she loved running through the bubbles.  Done! Color and dust everywhere! We spent Saturday with Katy and Dennis and explored Renton and a local beach and park. Callie and Katy The gang! Saturday was so beautiful that we actually went home and the kids ran in the sprinklers and played in the bathing suits all day.
