Wish I could fit our dog, Shelby, in the video, too! :)

Boo @ The Zoo

We made our annual trip to the local Boo at the Zoo. It was an opportunity for the girls to get dressed up for the first time this year. I can't say much for the event myself since there weren't many animals to see... but the girls still enjoyed the spooky decorations on a gorgeous Fall night.

Here are a couple pictures of our octopus and mermaid...

our sea animal and sea princess. For the record, they are both princesses... Ella just fit in her sister's old costume. Besides, doesn't she make for an adorable pink octopus?! :)

Pumpkin Pickin' and Elephant Ridin'

We had a great weekend full of family fun... first the circus where Adelyn got to ride an elephant for the first time (I just couldn't bring myself to allow Ella up there yet!) and then pumpkin picking at Relleke's farm.

We enjoyed a great playdate with friends this week as well as having another successful dental appointment for Adelyn. I am continuously shocked at how good of a patient she is for the dentist. We're looking forward to Chuck E. Cheese tonight since Adelyn completed her sticker reward chart. Then we're headed to Boo at the Zoo this weekend and a playdate here is planned for Monday.

Hope everyone is enjoying this cooler weather... feels like Fall has already passed but we have too many other Fall-time activities to enjoy over the next month to let it go that easily. :)

Poor Kitty

Our poor cat, Savannah, fell off two floors from a window sill and broke three bones in her back foot the other day. She's fallen many times before but apparently she fell on it the wrong way this time. We were really scared that she got outside and ran away since we couldn't find her for a full day but Adelyn did some searching and found her behind our couch in a lot of pain. When I saw that she was limping, I had remembered seeing her fall in the corner of my eye the day prior.

The good news is that she is already in much better spirits and walking around with her splint just fine. Here's a picture of her pathetic bandaged foot. The vet must have known that pink was a popular choice in our house. :)

My Child is a Genius

(Kidding.) But Adelyn did master her name recently... see her awesome fine motor skills at work??

Goofy Girls!

The girls have a lot of fun together and I'm starting to think that Ella is getting just as goofy and full of personality as her older sister. Can you tell?!

And here are the girls' signature dance moves.... Ella lkes to put her head on the floor and Adelyn is a fan of the classic "sprinkler." They're a lot of fun for Mommy, too! :)
