Halloween Sneak Peak

Here's a sneak peak at Miss A's Halloween costume for this year. A giraffe! :) Thanks to my mom for finding the costume and a giraffe bag and my mother-in-law for finding brown tights to match.







We have several Halloween functions to attend this year - the Chef family is hosting a Halloween Bash, Trunk 'or Treat with our Moms Club, Trick-or-Treating at the neighbors house, and I'm sure a few other impromtu events as well - so be prepared for several giraffe photos in the next few weeks. It's going to be spook-tacular!

A Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

We visited Bishop's Pumpkin Farm this weekend to kick off the fall season. Miss A had a blast, as did the Iron Chef and I.

Putting Green Pro

I would usually say that Miss A is taking after Tiger Woods ... but apparently I need to use a better, more child appropriate role model (when speaking of golfers) for my daughter. Haha.

However, she was a cute little golfer this evening. She wanted to play outside before bathtime. She went right over to here little play area, grabbed her set of clubs, wheeled them around the yard, and made her way to the putting green. Of course, I grabbed my camera. She was practicing some of her golfing skills and the Iron Chef was there to help "fine tune" her skills.



I guess he'll have to teach two girls to be golfers instead of having a house full of boys that love sports.

More Art Projects

Yet ANOTHER day of Miss A asking to, "draw" as she does almost every day of every waking moment. This time, however, we used finger paints with paint brushes because she hates getting her hands dirty with paint.

She's definitely hard at work in these photos and wouldn't even look up for a picture. Her fine motor skills are improving and she's able to draw little circles and "teeth" (she calls her letters teeth, but they look like scribbled letters).

Sticker Fun

As usual with Miss A, another fun day full of art projects and fun. I even managed to sneak a picture of the Iron Chef with stickers all over this face as well; however, apparently he beat me to the camera and deleted it when I wasn't looking!



She even woke up from her nap with stickers in her hair. They were everywhere!
