Cecily's New shoes

We've been in a constant battle between Cecily's feet, Cecily's opinions, & Cecily's enormous shoe collection.  

So, we went to Nordstrom to have her pick out one pair to replace all her old shoes.

I tried to push her towards the sparkly sneakers, but she chose the "princess boots like Gracie's"

They're actually pretty awesome, turns out they go with everything, and she can always put them on herself.

Bowling

Everyone was getting a little squirrely, so we went down to the bowling alley. 

I'm not sure it was worth the cost since Cecily looked like this the entire time:

You try bowling with TWO children hanging on you the entire time.

But, Parker & Jared had a good time.

But, I did narrowly beat out the 3-year-old, so there's that.

Darcy has a rough life...

That would be three blankets, if you're counting.

We're ready for the first day of MOPS!

Good thing we bought her that fancy new bed

Reading

Parker loves reading to Cecily.  He has many of the books memorized, so he's actually doing a decent job of "reading"

Trip to the Pumpkin Patch!

We had our Fall Fest for church at Craven Farms in Snohomish.

These photos do not do justice to the amount of rain falling down.  Just imagine you're standing in the shower with the water on full blast...it was like that only wetter and colder.

But the kids didn't care, they had a great time.

Actually, Cecily enjoyed it notably more than last year.
