Christmas Tree



We went and got our Christmas tree today. We always go and get a real tree. We usually cut it down ourself, and that's what we did this year. We took advantage of there being no snow and headed out to Allendale! Abby made the final decision on the tree this year. We got it home and found out how big it is!! It's tall and wide! But it looks pretty with all the ornaments and it smells great!

Time out

Olivia was put in her room yesterday for a time out. She was screaming for quite awhile in there. When the crying had stopped for awhile, I went in to check on her and found her sound asleep on her window seat. I knew if I moved her she would wake up, so I left her there. She slept for about 2 hours on that narrow window seat!! Crazy girl!! (yes, she's sleeping in that position!)

Halloween


My sister, Laura, and her kids were able to come over for halloween this year. The kids always like being with their cousins, so they were extra excited to go trick or treating! We went around the block in our neighborhood and they got more than enough candy. Abby was Violet from the Incredibles, Brooklynn was Tinkerbell and Olivia was a lady bug. They all looked very cute!


They were very cute, running from house to house. It seemed like there were so many of them this year because the two little ones were out there too!!
