Happy Fall, Y'all!

We have had a lot of fun this fall, especially since Daddy was home with us for 6 weeks!  We also had a lot of visitors due to Emma's arrival, so we've had a blast this season!

 We brought the activity mat out for Emma, and Addy decided that she wasn't too big for it after all ;)

 

 

We take a lot of walks.... Daddy and his ladies, ha ha!

 

We made some Halloween art at a play date.  Really cute idea: make spiders out of the girls hand prints, and then do it every year to see how they grow :)  Addy's on the top, and Emma's on the bottom.  Addy nicely decorated both of them with stickers :)

 

We had picnics outside in the beautiful weather.

 

 

 Addy played at the park...

 

While Emma slept at the park...

 

 

 

We went to the pumpkin patch with Grandma and Grandpa (or "Pop", as Addy calls him, ha ha!)

 

 

 

 

Mike took Addy down this huge slide, and she surprisingly liked it... but what she really liked was watching everyone else come down.  See her in her little orange shirt plopped down there?  She decided that once she and Daddy came down she was gonna hang out for awhile and watch everyone else :)

 

 

 Had to get a photo with this sign just like we did last year :)

Last year:

This year:

Addy grew half a foot!!!

Addy picked out pumpkins to take to school:

 

 

 

 We went on a hayride:

 Watched our PSU games....

 

 

 

 ...or in Emma's case, slept through our PSU games :)

Addy played with her favorite friends: the "big girls" next door.

 

 

That girl loves to "climb".

 Addy chatted on the phone with friends ;)

We played outside a lot!

 

 

 

...and slept outside.

 

 

 Even did some coloring outside:

My girls :)

 

Emma started to smile :)

 

 

I started to run (with my favorite running buddy, of course).

 

 

 

Daddy hung out with his girls as much as possible before heading back to work:

 

We played in the leaves:

 And we got dressed up for church of course :)

 

 

Whew, so there was our autumn in a nutshell.  I really need to start posting more often so that each of these posts isn't so insanely long.  It's just that by the time I get around to it, I've literally taken hundreds of pictures since the last time I blogged!  Adding Halloween festivities to this post would've made it unbearable, so next up: Halloween!!!!  Until then :)
