Theme: Memories

week of Oct 24th

Recently I have been feeling like my kids are growing up even faster than usual. They are taller, smarter, spunkier, funnier, and crazier. I still remember each of them being my little cuddly babies and although it is exciting to see them changing, it's definitely a little sad too.

Theme: On The Shelf

week of October 17th

I'm trying to get caught up on everything before all the family photo session fun begins!

My house is full of lots of little shelves and almost all have children's books on them. I just can't resist. They are cute, and fun, and educational so you can't go wrong, right?! Someday soon I'm hoping to have a whole wall of shelves in our family room that will fit my books, some kids' books and all these lovely CDs...with photos thrown in the mix too. Part of me is definitely sad that music is all online now because I used to LOVE getting the newest CDs from my favorite bands...I was definitely music obsessed!

Theme: My Neighbors

Week of October 10th

We definitely aren't the most social in our neighborhood, but this themed was timed perfectly because it came right as we attended our first neighborhood BBQ! My oldest couldn't wait to go and see her friends from the bus and the rest of us were excited about the good food. The kids ran around crazy the whole night long and had an absolute blast. I'm sure we'll be attending many more neighborhood events in the future!

Theme: Color

Week of October 3rd

Our oldest daughter has had the amazing opportunity to be involved in a Two-Way Immersion program (for Spanish) at her elementary school (and hopefully Addie will be joining next year for Kindergarten). One of the mom's organized an entry for a program going on at the school and we were thrilled to get to join in! Each child has a different letter to hold spelling out "Diversity Rocks" and will be arranged in a presentation set to music. We got letter "T" and had fun coming up with our plan and taking the pictures this afternoon. I can't wait to see the finished product!
