Fall and Halloween

Diana is our goofy girl! She loves to show off , especially if she knows somebody is watching!



 Our library sponsored an event for children to learn about and hold a few monkeys.  The girls loved it!
 We've only got about a bazillion leaves to rake every year and Joey has a few helpers this year:)  The girls love to do pretty much anything that Joey is doing especially if it is outside!


 Violets first time jumping in a pile of leaves:)

 So for Halloween we had two CareBears and one ladybug.  Diana LOVED LOVED having her face painted and dressing up... and again having her picture taken.  Marcy is rather obsessed with CareBears at the moment so when we found out we could borrow a costume she was excited!  She also loves pretend makeup so when she got the chance to have real make up she thought she was pretty cool.  Violet didn't have an opinion on the matter but we thought she was pretty cute:)





 It was a VERY soggy day so we only did a few houses but both girls were very excited to go up to each house and get their treats.  Diana was pretty cute: she would just mumble "dan dou" (thankyou) under her breath and she climbed the steps to the houses but not actually say it to the homeowner.

 It is really hard to get a good picture of all three girls!  But look at the below picture and you can see a smirk on Violet's face.
 Diana is actually saying "Cheeeeese" in the bottom picture despite it looking like she's yelling.

Life with 3

This was Diana's first time holding the baby.  It was pretty sweet how excited she was!  Diana has had a rough time adjusting to Violet but I think we've reached a status quo, finally!  She has begun to try helping me with burping the baby or getting the baby her plug when she's upset so I think Diana might even be starting to like Violet:)
 Opa had a blackout day at school-it didn't scare the baby but it sure made me do a double-take!

It was pretty great that Aunt Katie and Uncle Karl could come up for a visit!
 Grandpa and Nelda and Kay meeting Violet for the first time


 The girls love to "help" me on laundry days
