October's This and That

Abby Jane writes messages during naptime. Here is "Blythey Boo" plus a caterpillar and a flower.

Joy and Blythe prefer to pull around Jake's and my chairs in order to flank Abby Jane during breakfast, instead of sitting in their own seats across the table from their big sis. This is how our table looks every morning.

 One morning while Abby Jane was at school, the twins and I planted mums.

 Then we mailed their birthday invitations!

 Another morning, we didn't have a pressing engagement, so we did some yoga in our PJs!

 Hat day at school.

 Abby Jane and I went to watch her good buddy Andy play t-ball. It was just so much fun! So, so cute. Lindsey told Abby Jane that sometimes girls play on the teams and they get to wear pink hats and have pink gloves. So now Abby Jane is trying to decide which days next year she will play t-ball and which days she will continue her ballet. :)

Our yard is gloriously shaded during the spring and summer, but that translates to massive leaf dumping in the fall. Which is fabulous for pile playing! Love how Joy is exactly mimicking Janie here- she thinks her big sis hung the moon.

 This is so her. So full-on, whatever she's doing!

This is how Blythe prefers to rake. Always dressed for the occasion!
