"I'm Two!"

Lizzy is two years old! Hard to believe. She had a nice party with family over the weekend. She also moved into a "big girl bed" and is doing very well with it. We are so proud! Happy Birthday Lizzy!









Dressing up in some birthday gifts!




Just right!

Halloween

We had a great Halloween this year! The girls are at such a fun age for it. We put a lot of effort into Carly's astronaut costume, and the whole family contributed. We made a helmet out of paper mache using a punch balloon for the shape, cut out the neck and face holes, spray painted it silver and printed NASA patches off of the internet to apply to the helmet. The jetpack was made out of an empty Cheerios box, two litre bottles, and more silver spray paint. Carly received a lot of compliments while Trick-or-treating. Lizzy was in the spirit as well and dressed up as a doctor. By the way, we now have enough candy to last the whole year!














Pumpkin Carving

We grew our own pumpkins this year and the girls were a big help in making Jack-O-Lanterns. It's nice to know they aren't afraid of a little slime!
