leaves

Molly going out to help with leaves

And what a help she is!

Leaves are fun!

Suited up with Ruby, ready to go out again

Molly playing in the leaves.

playing with the neighbor kid.

Pumpkins!

Who are these ghosts?!
I think it might be Kaylin and Molly.

Molly stopped and picked a pumpkin out of each grouping.

Standing among the little pumpkins.

Daddy trying to help Molly pick a good one.

She found one!

Of course there was a slide and we had to try it!

"Again!" even though it was a slow slide and she had to scoot the whole way down.

Molly wasn't too sure about the goats.
No, I didn't have some extreme makeover. That is Kristi and Kaylin.

Here's Ruby and I! Ruby slept the whole time there.

Molly checking out all Kaylin's toys and Kaylin checking out Molly, right before she (Kaylin) shows us her roll over. There was a lot of "you're too big for that, Molly." It should be interesting when we get the jumper and exersaucer out for Ruby.

how we spend our day

Ruby doing her thing.
Molly thought Ruby needed the socks and mittens with rattles in them on.

Sometimes you just have to be playing on the floor (and someone else records it from a bad angle).

smiles & stats

Ruby had her 2 month appt today. It was a few weeks late to allow her pedi to get back from maternity leave.
Ruby stats: 2.5 months, 25inches (100%- off the chart really), 12lbs 10 oz (80%), head 40cm (60%). Molly got her flu shot and hardly flinched. Molly told Ruby "It's ok, Ruby" when Ruby got her shots. Ruby cried and SCREAMED. Molly said "Ruby got a boo-boo".

Molly also took a nap today! She's been missing them a lot lately. She sits in bed and sings. It's cute, but I like it when she naps. Maybe the trick is to give her stickers for being good like at the drs office and then take them away for nap time and she can cry herself to sleep. Just kidding! But that's how today went.

kicky feet version 2

Molly being a crazy kid...


and now 2 videos of "kicky feet". Both girls burn off energy before bed by wildly kicking their feet. Hey, whatever works, right?

Lips & Mustaches

Molly's smoothie 'stache

Mama's yarn 'stache (and a comatose Ruby)

For Corey's birthday, the girls all got wax lips and the boys got mustaches.
Molly couldn't figure it out.
It was hard for us to all keep it together.

Daddy's birthday

Corey had a birthday so I dressed the girls up in cute matching outfits.

Molly made Daddy wear beads. At least they're blue!

Ruby and Grandpa Jim
