Day 305 | October 31, 2012 - Wednesday
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
What a crazy, hectic, go go go day. First , let me start by saying that the girls costumes were a hit and everyone immediately recognized them as m&m's. Second, I must remember that a 10 year old boy does not want to go trick-or-treating with mommy anymore:(

The day started with an 8:15 am assembly at Connor's school for him to receive his Honor Roll award. Unfortunately we had to leave immediately after this photo was taken because Kelsey had a doctor's appointment. So wish I had rescheduled it because Connor looked so upset to see us leave...I know he want to see us and show off Kelsey to his friends.

Today was also Kelsey's one year check-up with her pediatrician. Kelsey fell asleep on the way and pretty much cried the entire time we were there.
Her stats are: weight - 18lbs  (10th percentile)
                    height - 30 inches (75th percentile)
                    head - 43.7cm (15th percentile)

She's just like her sister--tall, thin, and small headed :) Taken with cell phone...

Then, after the kiddos got home from school we headed to a local Halloween parade and walked along Canal Street to trick or treat at each of the businesses along the street. Saw some super cute costumes but my girls were becoming quite the handful, daddy was getting a little impatient, and boy was getting tired of walking, so taking all the pics I wanted did not happen :( At least I got these...

Day 304 | October 30, 2012 - Tuesday
I decided to take the kiddos one last time to the pumpkin patch to grab a few more photos of them before Halloween ended. The "golden hour" was in all it's glory!

When we got home I put the girls in their matching skeleton pajamas. Yes, I'm that mom who loves dressing there children up in matching outfits but they look so cute :) Of course my girls can not sit still for more than a 1/10th of a second so getting a sweet, smiling photo will NEVER happen...but that's ok:)

Day 302 | October 28, 2012 - Sunday
Finally...a beautiful day at Seaworld!
Every time we made it over this summer it has rain but not today. Hurricane Sandy is long gone and she's left behind blue skies and crisp fall air. Weekend during the month of October at Seaworld means their annual Halloween Spooktacular event. I dressed the girls up in their costumes (Connor brought his but decided not to put it on) and trick or treated through the the park. The kids were great--for the most part--and we even took in a couple shows we'd never seen before. Can't wait to go back to see what they have for the Christmas holidays.
