Halloween At The Park

Today we met some friends at the park for Halloween in the park. After waiting almost 30 mins in line it was our turn. It was a really awesome event, you go for a walk through the woods of the park and staged throughout the way are characters from stories and movies. All dressed up in their costumes were kids from the local high school who were earning volunteer hours. It probably took about 30 mins to go through and so much fun. Kylie I think liked the Sesame Street Characters the most. Although after she realized that every stop meant more candy she liked them all.

Kylie's School Halloween Parade

Brian and I were able to attend Kylie's Halloween Parade at school today. Whatever these teachers make is not enough in my book. There are 12 kids in Kylie's class all who were pumped up and excited for the Parade. Brian and I assisted in getting the kids to all the different Trick or Treat spots and stayed for their party, we even help to clean up (Happy to note that Kylie had the choice of apples, cheese and chips and chose apples for a snack).

Unfortunately the battery died on our camera but we were able to catch some great pictures!

Tomorrow is another Halloween Party, as a good friend said you might as well use the costume as much as possible. Have a SPOOKtacular weekend!

Preparing for Halloween

Last weekend Brian, Kylie and I headed to the pumpkin patch to pick our pumpkins. We were so excited to take some classic pictures with Kylie surrounded with pumpkins. This year Kylie wanted to run around, move pumpkins from one pile to another not interested in picture taking. Here are a few we got as well as a sneak peek of what she will be for Halloween. On Friday is her Halloween parade at school!

Off She Goes

Kylie has had a tricycle for at least 6 months and she insists that we push her on it. The other day I was watering the flowers and turned around and she was pedaling away. She now can ride a few minutes before getting tired and resorting on us pushing her. She really enjoys her new freedom!

Working 9-5

After picking up Kylie from school today, I was cooking dinner and turned around to find her being like her Mama. I am not sure if she was selling Oasis or Allure or perhaps a Europe itinerary but she kept clicking at the keyboard and laughing on my work phone. Regardless if she got the sale or not she sure made me smile.


After all Kylie's hard work it was bath time, which means we go try to use the potty before bath time. Tonight she decided her baby needed to go!

Two Year Checkup

Last Saturday Kylie had her two year checkup. We went in with one happy girl and came out with bronchitis and two shots. Little did we know that she had bronchitis, luckily they caught it early.

Kylie weighed in at 23 pounds 3 ounces (10th percentile for her age) and 33 inches tall (25th percentile for her age). The doctor said despite her bronchitis she was doing FANTASTIC!

On Sunday the bronchitis got worse and we were left with one unhappy girl with a fever. We remembered we had a box in our garage for Kylie that was a birthday gift we hadn't opened yet. The senders Uncle Paul and Aunt Judy told us it was an outdoor gift so we waited until the right moment. This was it...


Here is Kylie's reaction to her new bubble machine. It was like pure happy medicine. Needless to say in the last week we have made millions of bubbles! Also happy to report that we are 90% better and moving forward!

Fundraising Kylie

In preparation for the holidays, Kylie's school is holding a fundraiser for 40% of the proceeds to go to her school for updated computers, library materials and art supplies.

After all my years of going door to door for Girl Scout Cookies I am not going down that route. There is some cute wrapping paper etc..

If you would like to look at the opportunities great no pressure. If not no worries either...

Thanks!!
