It has been a month now and obviously we are home from Nashville. Wow! It has been a busy month. Our Nashville trip was a success. The kids rocked the the plane rides and enjoyed cousin time. I will get an update on that soon.
Before we go any further meet Lucy May and Violet Grace. We are in love.
And since we woke up to snow this morning I thought I better get a few Fall pictures up before it gets too late for that.
Sue and I enjoyed a harvest lunch with this guy.
Pumpkins and apples, nothing says fall more.
The Grillo kids came to play one afternoon and we made Halloween popcorn. I tried to get a decent picture of my helpers, but my kids don't have as much practice as Dakota in front of the camera.
We returned from TN and sickness has hit us with full force, hopefully we are getting our immunity built up before cold and flu season really hits.
On Halloween we weren't sure if the kids would be up for trick or treating. My kids aren't huge fans of dressing up or going to strangers houses, so I wasn't sure how it would go. Josh and Papa took the kids and I stayed home to pass out candy here
I'd say these are signs of a successful evening.
November first we put our Halloween candy to good use and started potty training Quinn. I put it off since we were going to Nashville, and the plan was to start the day we got home, but like I said sickeness got the best of us and we were finally all well enough to do it.
She picked out her own underwear and much to her daddy's delight she did not choose the princess undies.
The first two hours of potty training I wanted to call it quits, but I am much too stubborn for that and it has ended up being a breeze. After a cryfest Quinn finally sat on the potty and realized it wasn't that scary. Since then she she has ran and gone by herself every time. By no means do I think she is potty trained, since I judge that by me being ready to take her on errands with me, but we are off to a great start, I couldn't be more proud of her.
