Things have just been nonstop since Jeff got back from Cleveland and Natalie and Julia started their fall activities. So, here is what we have been up to - in no particular order!
My cousin got married. Jeff stayed with the kiddos and I went solo. They had a photo booth instead of a guest book and since I didn't have a "date" I decided a photo with my brother would be OK.
Of course we still get donuts. Julia has milk free ones that I bring from home.
We still love to go to the zoo. Here the girls are waiting for the train. One of Natalie's favorite things to do there.
And here she is on the train.
Julia and Ethan at the zoo.
Natalie started gymnastics. She is in the same class as Emily. Here they are getting ready to head in for their first class!
Everyone is always asking us what we eat with all the food allergies in the house. With a little more shopping at the health food store and a lot of substitution, we come up with some pretty tasty things!
Banana Chocolate Chip Pancakes
Meat and Vegetable Pizza with Cheeze made from vegetable protien
Harvest Chili
The weather has been so nice that we have been playing outside a lot. Some days the girls even get to wear their super cute new jackets.
Natalie got these braids as a party favor and she just loves them! This day she wore them to Target.
Julia got to attend her first music class and Natalie was happy to be back. Here they are playing the drum. That is Chloe, in between my two girls.
Julia loves little chairs and anywhere she can find one she tries it out, even if it is in the middle of music class.
Finding their own beat.
Natalie went to gymnastics class again.
She does really well on the balance beam. Here is a little video of her trying to do a back bend.
To get out and enjoy the great weather we got a bike trailer for the girls. Now, Jeff put it on my bike and after just 20 minutes my legs were burning! I think we are going to have to work up slowly.
Natalie has gotten really good at riding her bike. I am so proud of her!!
With the weather being so nice we have had many picnics on the deck.
Here are some new sounds from Julia.
