Dear little Abby



More Leaves!

Leaves!!!!




The leaves just keep on fallin'........ and Jake keeps on blowing them!

So... our tree is the one tree on our street that doesn't want to drop all of it's leaves just yet. But the leaves that do fall cover our whole front lawn.

So on our street you see green lawn, green lawn, green lawn...then ours- covered in leaves!
But there is a silly little girl who loves it....jumping in the leaves is endless fun!

Lovin' It



Abby is loving being in her high chair! Thanks to the Rosa's for passing along their awesome one! It is so helpful!
(Not that you can even see the high chair in these pics, but who wants to see the chair when you can see Abigail!?)

Six Months

Abby has passed her milestone of six months! It honestly feels like she is still a newborn baby and that bringing her home from the hospital was not too long ago. But she is already halfway to being a year old and is well acquainted with cereal, fruits, veggies, and life with a big sister.
I took this picture off of Auntie Bet's blog, because it's one of my favorites of this duo. They love each other so much. It's a lot of fun watching them grow up together! We are blessed.

SHE SPEAKS!

The Rosa Family

We are continually blessed by having friends and family visit us. This month, the Rosa family came to spend a few days. We always are encouraged by them and have tons of fun! We had a bonfire in the backyard, spent time on a submarine, and ate delicious cider donuts in Mystic. We are grateful for their friendship to us and look forward to when they visit again.

Nana's Birthday




Nana's birthday was on the 17th so we went to her house to celebrate. We had a delicious ice cream cake and had a lot of fun being with family!

Happy Birthday Nana! We love you so very much!

October Teen Activity







This month we had a Scavenger Hunt/Candy Apple activity. The hunt was really funny and Jake's team won by 5 pts!!! (Because the other team couldn't find their napkin from Dunkin Donuts!) It was a lot of fun.
The candy apples were yummy. We gave them out to people on Sunday.

Meeting Kasey


We recently spent time with our friend Kody and his new brother Kasey!

Getting Chilly






We have been taking some walks in the chilly weather. I couldn't find Gracie's hat, so I squeezed one of Abby's on her. We had a good laugh about it!

Mimi Comes




Not too long ago Mimi came for a few days. The girls had fun with Mimi and they are looking forward to her next visit, when she brings Poppy with her!!!!

Practicing Hair


A while ago we practiced some hair styles for the upcoming wedding. Thankfully when Miss Wendy did it, it looked WAY better than what mommy attempted to do.

We can't wait for Auntie Bet and Daniel's wedding!
