Nanny Cam
I came home one day last week and found the girls dressed up in one of the adorable outfits given to them as a birthday gift by my Grammy. Our nanny Tamarah had dressed them up in the dresses, complete with bows and socks, and taken pictures of them! It was SOOOO cute! Anyway, I keep telling Sean how unbelievably cute the girls were in these outfits and so I promised to post the pics for him. Enjoy!

Halloween
Again, you will have to click on the picture below to see ALL of the adorable pics from Halloween. As you can see, I decided to go with a different costume theme than planned. Originally, based on the votes, the girls were going to be a ladybug and bumblebee, but then I found these adorable girly flower fairy costumes on ebay and I just fell in love with them! I also wanted to do something really feminine and beautiful to celebrate having two gorgeous girls.
Our Halloween did not quite go as planned. We were supposed to drive up to Tucson and spend the night with my sister's family so the girls could go trick or treating at the mall with their 10 month old cousin Logan. Instead, I ended up having to stay here and care for my injured grandmother. She took a nasty fall last week, possibly caused by a mild heart attack, and broke her wrist and fractured her back. She was released from the hospital after her surgeries Thursday evening and I was the only family member that could care for her over the weekend. So leaving town was not an option and our plans got revised!
We were invited to go over to our nanny Tamarah's house with some of the other kids and families she occasionally cares for. We could not stay long because I didn't want to leave my Grammy alone, but we enjoyed the great decorations at her house and the treats! The girls were cranky because it was past their bedtime AND they had also had their one year check-ups earlier that day and gotten their immunizations (appt. details in an upcoming post!) Poor things just weren't in the trick-or-treating spirit! We went home early, but left AIdan there to trick-or-treat with the big kids.
We also really missed Daddy! I wish he could have seen them in their costumes and been there to share their first "real" Halloween (they were only a week old last year!) He gets to come home from training and visit next weekend so we are very eager and excited to see him!
It wasn't quite the Halloween I had pictured or planned, but the girls were adorable in their costumes and they got a small taste of Halloween fun!

Pumpkin Patch
Click on the picture below to view all the pics from our pumpkin patch excursion last weekend! It is so much easier to upload them to Photobucket all at once and link to that album than to upload them five at a time here. I have a slow computer and I am not patient with technology.
The girls had a wonderful time at the pumpkin patch. We met my parents and sister Hannah, as well as my sister Jenna with her husband and son Logan at the patch. It was great to spend the day with everyone and have the extra help with the girls! We went on a hay ride, picked out our pumpkins, and ventured through the challenging corn maze! We made pretty good time through the maze considering we had three babies with us in strollers.
Cassidy loved looking at and touching the pumpkins, trying to eat the dirt, and don't let the pictures fool you, after it got going she loved the hay ride also! Candace on the other hand was NOT impressed with the entire outdoorsy experience. She did not want to get dirty or touch anything, just like her mama!
