Kid update!
So the biggest news is that Maddie is going to be a big sister! Her baby brother is due in April, and we are all very excited, especially since this will be my parents’ first grandson and my first nephew!
Halloween was exciting….it was Hailey’s first Halloween and she was Minnie Mouse!
I’d love to see this face at the door.
And right before Halloween, Miss Hailey started walking!
Maddie is a veteran trick-or-treater now but this year she helped mom pass out candy. The whole family got into the act and were….the Flintstones!
Maddie’s other grandpa calls her “Pebbles” because of the way she wears her hair, so….halloween inspiration.
“All the candy is for MEEEEEE!”
Maddie has also been taking swimming lessons and loves them! My parents went to visit a few weeks ago and they had fun taking Maddie to the parks, the zoo, and sharing Maddie’s Miss Rachel obsession (which Hailey also shares). Maddie also loves rubber ducks!
Down south, Patty was Cinderella.
Cinderella with a banana and a piece of pizza.
It was cold for Texas trick or treat, so thankfully Cinderella could wear a fleece under her gown.
And baby Maggie got into the act as a giraffe.
Hailey, like I said above, is walking and also babbling up a storm. Maddie is getting a “big girl room” and knows where “mommy’s baby” is, and also enjoys playing with her baby doll as practice for being a big sister.
I also have yarn for the new baby’s blanket!
For my readers who like Yarn Alongs, there is a big one coming this week—stay tuned!
Also keep your eyes peeled for my signed book special!
