It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

We have put out a few decorations around the house to get in the spirit!

Santa Sammy!  he let's us do what we want with him!

Kiley loves having a tree in her room!

We started the Elf on the Shelf tradition this year,

welcome to the family Willie the Elf!

That crazy elf!

Is this not love!? Melts my heart seeing this!

Park time

I think we enjoyed our last park visit for the year! Kiley loved the slide!

Boogio's

Back in September my parents and Katy came out for the weekend, we tooled K out to Boogio's (orchard/pumpkin patch) for a short little visit. Kiley hadn't napped- so she was a little crabby and did not want to do much there- but it was still fun !

Tub time!

After a short weekend trip to Iowa- I got back just in time to give K her bath Sunday night! Even though it was only about 36 hours away from her- I missed her like crazy!

Happy Halloween!

Our little ladybug!

 

 We started out visiting Tami! Tami spoiled her with some Halloween cupcakes! Yum!

Can't believe we got such a good little smile out of K!

 (must have been the cupcakes that did the trick!)

then we visited Hailee! 

Hailee spoiled Kiley with a whole bucket full of goodies!!

 

After stopping at Tami and Hailee's houses, we met Daddy at Hy-Vee and trick or treated in the store!  We made a few more stops at friends houses (again Kiley got spoiled by them all!)  And then made our way to Utica to Chad, Mary and Lydia's house.  Kiley and I trick or treated at a few houses in their neighborhood, and she loved it!  She would walk up to the door and say "trick or treat" "happy halloween" and "thank you!"  We ended the night back at Chad, Mary and Lydia's.  The girls had so much fun playing together!

 

 Lydia and Kiley

Her loot! I'd say she had a pretty successful trick or treat!
