Happy Halloween!!!!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

We had fun today!

We played outside all day and then after naptime we went to a Halloween Carnival- Matty and Lexi love rides and Bouncy houses!

Then we went trick-or-treating in the neighborhood! The kids had a blast and did a great job.

They went up to doors...knocked said trick or treat, grabbed handfuls of candy, and said thank you and bye, bye.

We made it around our whole neighborhood with heavy elmo baskets we headed home and called it a night after a safe piece of candy! Overall Mommy and Daddy were very impressed!

Haircuts

BEFORE

Matty needed a haircut, so we decided to get Lexi her first real haircut as well. She was very good in her seat and didn't squirm as much as Matty! Mommy shed a few tears because now she looks like such a little girl and not a baby anymore with those bangs. But still cute.

AFTER

Doesn't Matty look handsome in his new do.

They did so well that we picked up cupcakes for dessert!

Bonnie Springs

We went to Bonnie Springs on Saturday to feed the ducks, pet the animals and go on the litle train. Matty and Lexi had fun. Lexi couldn't wait to pet every animal, but Matty was not happy to pet the animals and was terrified as the animals moved closer. Matty preferred the caged animals, and Lexi liked petting the big ones. They both loved feeding the ducks and riding the train.

As we walked through the petting zoo, Matty and Lexi made the noises of the animals...

"TWo"gether fun!

Matty and Lexi have so much fun playing together. There is nothing more wonderful and being home with them all day long so that I can experience more time with them. Yeah we have our moments when someone is cranky, but overall they are such great kids...I am so lucky that they are in my life and couldn't ask for more.

Matty and Lexi were eating breakfast when Lexi broke out in hysterical laughter, and Matty was playing Peek a Boo, of course mommy had to grab for the camera! Too funny...their laughter is contagious and sometimes it is good to have a laugh!

Interactive Elmo

Matty and Lexi were very excited to get their new Interactive
Elmo dolls that granny Rona and Grandpa Danny got for
Them. They held their coupons and gave them to the sales
Clerk. They hugged the boxes and have been playing and
loving them ever since.

San Diego

We took our second trip to San Diego. This time we stayed in Ramona at Aunt Suzy’s house. Lexi had a few obstacles. On the way there, mommy noticed some blisters on Lexi’s hands and feet and we called the doctor’s office. They said it was a virus on its way out. The first night we were in San Diego we went to a fun park and out to dinner at Sizzler. Later that night, Lexi fell off the bed and hit her head. The next morning Mommy freaked out when she noticed all of the dried up blood and worked hard to clean it up.



We decided to try Lego Land. The kids loved it.They enjoyed the rides,
the playground and especially the water features. Whereas most kids jumped away from the water, Matty and Lexi stayed in the water and got soaked. We looked all over the park for additional clothes
to purchase, but decided against that idea,once we saw pants for $30.00. We went back a second day before we left.

Matty and Lexi are very much into fish now, so we thought the aquarium would be fun and it was. It is the perfect kid size aquarium. They loved the slide at the beginning and looking at all of the fish. They even got to touch some hermit crabs and star fish. Matty kept saying” Look Elmo fish.”

The San Diego Wild Animal Park was fun. Matty and Lexi enjoyed the animals, but their favorite part was feeding the ducks. They kept scraming for the “duckies” it was too cute and everyone that passed by giggled at them. Lexi fell asleep first on a tram ride after flipping out, and Matty fell asleep as soon as he sat in his stroller car after the tram ride. People looked and matty and were like “wow he’s out! It was a lot of fun.

Lollipops

Mommy was off from work,
so Mommy, Lexi and Matty
decided to have a lazy day at home.
Matty and Lexi had lollipops
For the first time and
Absolutely loved them.
They kept screaming
“More pop.”
Then we tried our new
Sesame Street computer
game. It was a nice
relaxing day at home.
Lexi and Matty now scream Lolli all day long...

Bounce House

We went to a place called Zone 1 that has bounce houses. They had fun bouncing and it was great because there were not a lot of big kids. Another great place to go to sometimes. Matty and Lexi had fun for more than 40 minutes!

Gilcrease Orchard

Matty and Daddy with his pumpkin!
Matty loves his green pumpkin!
Aren't we cute with our pumpkins!

We went to Gilcrease Orchard, which is only about 5 minutes from our house, to pick pumpkins. Matty and Lexi had fun running around in the field and were excited to get their pumpkins for about 5 minutes. Then they decided they just wanted to run around. We got some fresh apple cider and they loved it and couldn't get enough! It was a fun time. We look forward to going back to pick apples when they are a bit older.
