Shout Out
A Shout Out is going to Jodee over at Follow the Leaders! She hosted a giveaway for her 3 year bloggervisary and for the first time ever since I started blogging, I won a giveaway.
I was able to choose a custom banner from A to Zebra Celebrations. Nancy does wonderful work and has some great party planning ideas. I love looking at all of her stuff in her etsy store.
I of course chose a Happy Birthday Rylee banner for her birthday next year. We are going with a Pink, Orange, and Brown Giraffe Theme! I am so excited to see Nancy’s work! :)
Thank you so much Jodee! Head over to Jodee’s blog and see all the fun stuff she does with her kiddos. She is an amazing mom and equally amazing at documenting their every adventure.

Apparently this was an exhausting day. This was taken almost a year ago. Look at the round chubby face she had! Awe!

Storytime
We have been attending the storytime at the local library. Although Rylee really doesn’t care to sit and listen to the stories very nicely, She loves the dancing and the craft time.
At the end of the storytime they always sing and dance to a song. And after that there is a simple craft that they get to do. We have made necklaces, a picture frame, a weaved pumpkin and colored a picture.

Pumpkin Patch & Apple Orchard
We are back officially! After 3 weeks of adjusting and getting a new routine settled in, we are back. Adding 2 extra girls to the daily agenda is quite a bit.
So now time for some catch up. October has been filled with pumpkin painting, pumpkin painting, museum visits, zoo fun, painting, playing, photo-shoots and doctors trips. Lots to catch up on here about.
At the beginning of October we headed to an Apple Orchard and Pumpkin patch with the girls and their mommy. The patch is about an hour away and it was hosting Harvest fest. They had train rides, hay rides, pony rides, inflatable's, yummy apple turnovers, cotton candy, balloon animals, a petting zoo and of course apple picking and pumpkin picking.
Right away we jumped onto the horse drawn hay ride out to the apple orchard. We picked a small bag of apples and Rylee had her first taste of an apple straight off the tree (Well as straight off the tree as it can get after mom wipes it off with a baby wipe). Next we went and looked at the pumpkins. They were a tad overpriced so we held off and just snapped some pics with the pumpkins.
Next up was the all the fun. We saw the animals, watched the balloon animal guy and ran on the hay bails. We also enjoyed some yummy apple turnovers. Yummo!
It was quite the day and Rylee was exhausted but refused to give into a nap. I think she was officially in bed by like 7:30pm. Now that’s a record in our house!
