Happy Halloween!

It doesn't get any cuter than kids this age in costume!


Syd's partner's in crime; Jackson, Evan and Shaan. Taking these guys trick-or-treating was hilarious! There was lots of uncertainty about what we were doing until the doors opened and then the little munchkins would rush inside, not really caring about the candy, but thrilled to be "welcomed" into a new house they could explore. All the parents would have to apologize as we also rushed into our unsuspecting neighbors homes to retrieve our kids. Good times :-)


Mom&Dad, are you sure it's OK to just take this candy from our neighbors?


Sydney ready to be done at the end of the night

A perfect day

Today was one of those days. A beautiful, sunny, fall day. We hit up the library, went for a walk and chrunched leaves, met up with friends at the park. Syd and I had so much fun. I feel like she's just my little buddy. I know I'm biased, but she was so sweet and charming today. I also feel like she's growing up so fast. Look at my big girl!

Shoes

I love this picture because it shows Sydney doing one of her favorite things. Playing with shoes. She is constantly in my closet trying on different pairs and walking around in them. She has gotten pretty good at getting them on, usually on the right feet too! Here she is in her favorite pair, my bright orange high heels. I knew it, shoes are just an innate girl thing.

My little pumpkin

We had a blast picking out pumpkins at the pumpkin patch. Sydney wanted to get them all!

Fire Fighter Syd

Our neighborhood fire station has an open house each year and this time Sydney was old enough to enjoy it. Here are some pics of her at the station.

"Hey kid-hands off my truck"

Crime Scene

The suspect was caught red-handed. . .

Realizing she's caught she tries to make off with her loot, only to discover it's too much for her to carry. . .

and makes a run for it. . .

Now what to do with all the evidence?

Down on the Farm

Sydney loves animals and we are so lucky to have several different farms close by. A few weeks ago we got to spend the afternoon with some of our favorite people at Ardenwood. Look at these little buddies!


I love seeing their curiosity and wonder about everything.
