 Layla gets the rice throwing experience too haha. She had fun going crazy!
 Evie loves to draw on the window screens.
 Layla likes to crawl around on the trampoline with the kids. She thinks it's pretty funny.

 Layla can sit up so well now so she likes to sit and watch the kids on the playground. 





 Took the kids to the Hershey story museum on free museum day. It was small but they had fun :)


 Layla loves driving around with the kids outside. She likes to be one of the big guys.




It got freezing here. Inside the house was 64! So I had to turn on some heat for the first time. Layla was looking so cute in her little hat though. 


 Went and got some pumpkins to decorate. Poor Evie looks a mess because she crashed her bike going down a hill too fast. It looks pretty rough.

Been a brutal week with Brandon's new rotation. He is on colo-rectal surgery. He goes at 4:15 and gets home at 8:30 and has had to do overnight shifts with no break. It will be nice when this month is over and he can start a new rotation! The kids have been pretty good though so that has been nice. I think I'm getting more used to the hard schedules and the kids are adjusting too. We are all getting a little more independent.

Cute kids, falltime


 Little miss cute Evie has been so tough lately! She just has power struggles with me all day long. She wants to run the house! She also stopped napping the majority of days and learned how to open doors so now she is impossible to keep up in her room during quiet nap time. She will at least play with her toys for a while though. She is very jealous of Andrew going to school and wants to go to. Hopefully we can get her in school once she turns 3; she may just need some independent time! She does love to have me all to herself while Andrew is at school though. We have tea parties and she brushes my hair for an hour haha. She just loves all girly things.

 Ball pit slide! We play out back while we wait for Andrew to come home from school. The van picks him up at 11 and he doesn't get back till 4. Evie likes to play with Layla and Layla loves it too.
 Layla is getting better at sitting up by herself!


Layla has so much fun in the swing. She doesn't get to do much when we go places but at least now she can swing. 


 If i push her a little too fast she gets scared, haha. She still doesn't like being thrown up in the air or anything fast. She likes to take it easy.

 Evie and Andrew like to push her too.
 We took Andrew to another evaluation and they said he is not on the autism scale anymore so thats good. He was pretty delayed in his creative play and his communication. So grandma helped us get him some toys to encourage self play. He loves paw patrols and knights right now and did pretty good playing on his own after I got down and showed him a few different things he could do.
 Just realized Evie's hair is mess in almost every picture of her, haha. She has got some crazy hair that won't stay put!
 Evie gets so tired after church. Andrew was taking pictures of her and trying to wake her up but she wouldn't budge!

 I love the day before garbage day. I go out and find stuff on the curb much to Brandon's dismay haha. He thinks I'm crazy doing that but it's just going to go in the garbage truck so I don't feel bad taking it and getting a little more use out of it. People get rid of so much cute stuff! I got a fun new tea party table and chairs for the playroom. We had fun playing with Elsa serving our water. Layla thought she was big stuff sitting up in the chair with the kids.


 She has the cutest little face.

 Also got a fun little shopping cart, dollhouse with sounds that still work, and a jogging stroller! Our single stroller is falling apart so this one definitely beats that!

 Also found a a fun little push car. It's pretty beat up but the kids don't care.
 Andrew was so cute pushing Layla around the block. The weather was cool and so nice today. Can't wait for fall to come!

Apple picking

 Matching cuties!

 Layla loves to sit on her ride on toy. She giggles and squeals. She watches the kids go on their bikes all day long so she likes to get out and do it to.
 Grandma got us super cute owls to put on the wall. The playroom is the best room in the house!

 Layla is crawling now. She can get anything now. She is such a busy body! She loves to pull things off of shelves so I'm going to have to start baby proofing again.
 The weather turned cold on Sunday so we got to get out our awesome jackets! I'm so excited for fall!
 She can sit up in chairs now! She is getting so big.

 We went to an Apple picking orchard. They had a bunch of fun playground stuff for the kids too. It was nice and cool out and the kids had a lot of fun! We went on a hayride picked some apples and got apple cider.








 We got to see how they sort and clean their apples! Andrew got flapping pretty good watching them roll down the ramp and go through the machine.
Best apple cider ever!
