Pumpkin Patch Princesses

Can you believe it's already November? Thanksgiving will be here before we know it, and then Christmas. That stresses me out a little because I haven't even thought about Christmas shopping yet. Oh well, I've always started late, so this year should be no different.

We hope everyone had a great Halloween night. We worked a booth at the Prestonwood Fall Festival, and there were lots of people there as usual. The girls rode around in the stroller for about 2 hours while mom and dad took turns at the Pirate Toss booth. They got pretty restless after a while and wanted to run around which was not possible since there were so many people. But, we had a good time! I figure this is the last year that we can get away with not trick or treating.

Backtracking a little, the girls had their 2 year checkup at the pediatrician about 2 weeks ago, and I am happy to say that they are both on the charts for the first time! Here are the status:

Allie:
Weight: 27 pounds (50%)
Height: 32.75 inches (15%)
Head: 47.75 cm (55%)

Brooke:
Weight: 26 pounds, 4 ounces (40%)
Height: 33.25 inches (20%)
Head: 47 cm (40%)

We were pretty excited about the percentages! Our little two pound babies are finally catching up!

Well, that's all I got for now. I'll leave you with lots of pictures b/c dad's the witty one, not me ;)


We stopped by a pumpkin patch last week...A & B trying to decide which way to go first

Quick shot with mom before the girls head in opposite directions.

These pumpkins are just our size

But, Allie likes these even better!

Eating is exhausting!
