The Latest
We're not sure if Fall has really arrived or not...the trees are so thirsty from the drought that their leaves are just turning brown and falling off. But the girls like to collect them and say that they've found some "pretty leaves" for us to keep.
We also celebrated Mommy's 36th birthday last week. It was very low key this year since Dad was at a work-conference, but we did have a small party when he got back, and the girls also helped Daddy pick out a cute little iPOD for Mom--which, not to worry, is not worn while the kids are screaming!
Vivian has also taken an interest in football--much to Dad's pleasure, of course! Recently, we discovered her downstairs, lounging on the couch, watching the game by herself. And, this past Sunday, she put on her orange Chinese costume from the dress-up box, grabbed a ball, started running, and announced, "This is my football uniform! I'm footballing!!" So, we've bought her a nerf football. Lily is even taking a break from being a ballerina to be the cheerleader!
Hopefully, we'll have some pictures in the subsequent weeks of the girls jumping in the brown leaf piles. Maybe we'll throw in some fake red and orange ones too. And, stay tuned for the upcoming Halloween Extravaganza!
