Pumpkin patch and the monkey girl...

Jon is away on his man trip of the year .... it's raining so much and they are not able to play any golf yet. That stinks. Hopefully it will not rain for the football game on Saturday. Before he left we took the girls to the pumpkin patch. It was only ok! I have high hopes for these types of things and so far I am usually disappointed. This was no different. Edie basically hit the ground running and Ella wanted to be held most of the time ... we played for a bit and left with no pumpkins. There is always next year though......here are some pictures (which was my main goal really)....
They had a jumpy house there and Edie LOVED it ... Ella was ok with it but only when we were in there with her.

Edie and daddy strolling around....

the maze was fun.....



Edie pulled this gigantic pumpkin around for a little while....


then she stopped to wave at some folks....

the girl is always on a mission...

Ella either saying cheese or pick me up .....

Edie is so stinkin cute.....

they sometimes eat at their big girl table .... so cute!!!



There is constantly something on their faces or their clothes .... I give up!!!

So I took their chairs apart the other night to wash the covers ... Edie was not deterred ... she grabbed one of the inserts and used it to try and climb up on the counter.....


Here she is before I took the chairs apart ... she actually peed on it so I could not put off washing them any longer.....



Who me????

Ella again with the messy face....and the crazy long bangs!!! She got her first "real" haircut today ... she did so well and it looks so much better ......

some Edie cuteness...


They have completely different eating styles ..... Edie is an eat n run kind of gal ... she dumps her plate as soon as she is finished ...then she is outta there.......

Ella likes to take her time .... savoring every bite. Just like her mommy, she loves food!!!

Edie is so pitiful when she cries ... it's really heartbreaking!!!

Ella having a turn with the 3D chalk glasses....little tiny nerd!!!


Piggy PJs......

A little umbrella fun ... I sure hope we don't get 7 years of bad luck for this.....




Ella likes to carry this purse on her shoulder now....


I busted Edie ponied up to the counter eating butter with a fork....

See this little innocent looking spin toy ..... wonder why it's been banished to the garage????
