A Trip to Mayse Pumpkin Patch

Today we took the girls to Mayse Pumpkin Patch to pick out pumpkins for Halloween! We ended up getting 4 pumpkins (one for each of us!). A large pumpkin to carve, a medium pumpkin, and 2 small pumpkins! After we left Mayse, we went to Target to get Keelin's Halloween costume! She is going to be Cinderella! (surprise...surprise!)



Keelin is trying to find the perfect pumpkin!


A little too heavy!

Day or Night?

Emmy is really fussy in the evenings! She fusses from around dinner time to about midnight. She wants to eat every couple hours at night. During the day she sleeps like a charm! Often going 4-5 hours in the mid of the afternoon between feedings. Our days are her nights! I need to work on getting her switched around!!
A stare down with the duck!

Zoo

Drew took a couple days off work to help me get use to both girls after my parents left. We spent one day at the park and the next day at the zoo. We went out to lunch both days! Emmy had a doctor's appointment. She has bypassed her birth weight and now weighs in at 6 pounds, 14 ounces! Keelin loved getting to run around and play! Drew went back to work today so now it is the 3 of us girls at home. Here are pictures from the zoo!






Keelin thought it was funny to cover her daddy's eyes while he carried her on his shoulders!

Pumpkin Bread

While my parents were here Keelin was very busy helping everyone in anyway she could! I thought pumpkin bread sounded good so my mom, Keelin, and I made some. She was very proud of herself!!




It's ready to bake!
