Happy Halloween!!!!!

Binge Blogger

I have figured out I am a binge blogger. I apparently can't find the time to put up posts throughout the month but put them up once in awhile and put up a lot. When doing the pumpkin pics they loaded backwards so look at them backwards :)

She did get very into cleaning the pumpkin. I love her first reaction to the goo. She decided that the pumpkin was a trashcan and picked up stuff (non pumpkin related) and put it in there to help Dan. She giggled at the pumpkin when we got to light it up. We were not able to get her to go into the pumpkin this year. She protested greatly-a complete hissy fit.

Calli loves to rub her food covered hands in her hair throughout meals. We can't remeber what this was. However we do remember it made a great hair gel! She got a full bath after that!!

Alex isn't too sure about the walker and he can only figure out how to go backwards which is very frustrating to him but Calli has a blast pushing him around.

I love this outfit on her. It looks so preppy but of course she would not sit or stand nicely for a pic. Her face was all scrapped up from well who knows, and her one eye was black and blue from turning into our footboard on our bed and getting the corner into her eye.

A Hayride!!!

Family Photos at the Farm

Klackle's Orchard in Greenville

Dan was excited to see the pedal tractors-(he said "Oh my gosh they still make these) He then reminised about how he and his brothers would tear around the driveway on theirs and beat up the poor tractor (I can't imagine those 4 perfect angels doing anything like that). Now instead of pedaling himself around he got to push his daughter around at a nice slow safe speed-YA RIGHT!!

Walking

This is her on the move, I can't really get any good pics of her walking. This was taken earlier day while she was babbling and truckin' aroung the entire house. This pic was taken a couple weeks ago when she was first learning. Notice the one hand out straight and the other in the air-that is how she would balance. Yes it looks like she is touching Dan's leg but that was how she would walk-little frankenstein. ***Notice the swing in the background-it is for when her friend Javen comes over to visit, don't worry we don't put her in it. Also sorry about the uncoordinated clothes, must of been a stay at home morning.
Can't you just hear her " MOM this is ridiculious!!" I had to try and put something in her hair. I like the little fountain--how about you??

Bathroom fun

Calli Jo thought the toilet was hunger apparently. We have lost 5 rolls of toilet paper this way. At least it is easier to clean out of the toilet than if she would have unraveled it all the way. We now have to keep the bathroom door closed all the time along with the cats room (she eats his food) and our bedroom (she empties all my drawers), so basically the only door that open in the hallway is her bedroom. I can handle cleaning up all her books and shoes and blankets everyday. She really likes to brush her teeth and gets irritated when we make her put her toothbrush back. She mocks me when I am brushing my teeth and moves the toothbrush back and forth but if I am not brushing my teeth at the same time she justs sucks on the toothbrush.

Some random pics

I couldn't see the pics when I picked these but wanted to update our blog while I had a quick minute.

Nothing really to update on. Plans for this weekend include getting some fall pics and getting pumpkins and pumpkin doughnuts....mmmm....

Last weekend we went to the Rockford Farmers market and got some local produce and our first cider of the year. Delicious~ now i just need some pumpkin pie!!
