Go Yoda!

The Girls celebrated their Halloween in what has become almost a weekly outfit.  They debuted their Bears Cheerleader outfits at their birthday party and have worn them a few time since.  They went to a parade today with their buddy Charlie, who was dressed as Yoda.

Nonnie brought some Jack-o-lantern balloons last weekend and the Girls have been playing with them since.

Here they are on Southport in their outfits.  Still not huge fans of the stroller, but so long as they can get their grubby hands on some Cheerios, they are generally OK.

Here is their buddy, Charlie, who went as Yoda.  It was a good time!

A rare glimpse of daylight on Southport today.

Had to get this Great Dane.  

Caroline also has been packing up the grocery cart with everything from animals to her sippy cup.  She walks behind the  cart w/ stiff legs and on her ankles, but she manages to get around.  Both of them figured out how much fun it is to run the carts/walkers into daddy's legs this evening.  That was good for about 20 minutes of laughter.

On the Bench

Humboldt

Humboldt Park is one of the nicest in the City.  The Girls like a trip through to look at the ducks or just a little people watching.  Inside the park, they recently installed a new children's play area, which we checked out today.  We rode the bikes over to the park and tried our luck w/ the Chariot again.  To Mom/Dad's delight, the Girls enjoyed the ride.

Before we left V decided to climb up onto this work bench (not meant to hold 23lbs).

The Girls were all geared up and ready to go.

Neither V or C were quite sure how to climb up the rubber hill.

They liked getting in the mix of all the equipment.

Swings continue to be a reliable favorite.

A Day at Didier's

Nothing like pickin pumpkins in 78 degree weather!  The Family headed up to Didier's Farm to pumpkin hunt, visit the petting zoo, ride a hay ride and have a picnic lunch.  The Girls even went for a little wagon ride and had a fantastic time.

Caroline loved the animals.  She'd giggle and wiggle when they came near.

After a recent goat stampede, Victoria is still very cautious of the petting zoo.

They both loved the tractor hay ride.

Cheese!

Not that there is ANY room in the garage, but Mom and Dad may need to check into a wagon.  They girls thought this was the Bee's Knees.

Happy Birthday to C & V!

The Girls had a great time celebrating their FIRST Birthday, along with a Bear's win.  Thanks for celebrating with them!
