Daddy look-a-like

"I'm David!" Max declared as mommy prayed he would reconsider adding an overnight diaper to his pajama ensemble.

Kira has something up her sleeve- an apple slice that she happily gnaw-smiled on.

Milk does a Kira good

Kira and mommy went to Trader Joe's to get some milk- for Kira!  She loved sharing the shopping cart with Minnie and her milk.

The milk was a hit!  She has drank water from this cup for a while, but she enjoyed the milk much more.

Max and daddy left the house for a few hours and Max was so excited to see Kira when he got home.  She was pretty happy, too!

While Kira napped, Max and mommy went on a bike ride.  Even with the absence of Kira's 18 pounds, it was incredibly hard to tow Max around the hills of Reston.

Mr. Knick Knack!

Sadie and Max could hardly contain their enthusiasm for the outdoor concert.  

Genuine, unsolicited sharing!

Say "close your eyes!"

All mommy wanted for her birthday was a  family picture with everyone's eyes closed.  Check!




...and Bar Taco for the third time this week!

This chair is obviously a time machine.  It made Kira grow up in an instant and mommy never wants her to go near it again.  

Today Kira and mommy went to the first Sunday Punims (Mommy and Me) class.  Kira had a great time!  She made an apple tree, played, and flashed her perm-a-smile to everyone in sight.

Fall fun

Typical morning shanigence 

Breaking out Kira's fall wardrobe 

Bounce house!

There were not many pumpkins left at the patch, but the flowers were pretty!

TGIF

Kira is obsessed with Max and Max is obsessed with being insane.  They are a sibling match made in heaven. 

Good morning, Sunshine!

Mommy read a book at Max's school.  All of the girls hugged him when we left and he even got asked on a play date.  Bringing your mom to school is still cool at this age!

Legos!

Finding old toys after a long time is the best.  Max used to love this gator and he still does.

Apples and bananas

Kira's daily dose of Advil must be working; despite her cold and teething she is still all smiles!

Little Einsteins in the wee hours of the morning 

Max really wanted pancakes this morning so he woke up extra early to make them. So nice of him.


Max likes to eat, eat, eat, apples and bananas!

Max randomly positioned himself on this stool and said [you guessed it], "cheese!"  His school photo shoot must have really stuck with him since he so humorously reenacted it.

A bicycle built for three

Helmet heads!! Kira wore a helmet for the first time and she did pretty well considering it kept falling forward and covering her whole face.  Luckily Max was quite close by and lifted it up when his driver begged him to.

All three of us were so excited for our first bike ride together.  These two giggled in the trailer, while mommy panted her way up the many hills in Reston.  Truth be told, there were a few times that the bike, and it's 50+ pound load, got walked up hill.

Fall cleaning 

Kira could hardly wait to get in the bike trailer 

Just a taste...

Diaper cream and hydrocortisone- Kira's morning beauty regime

PAWLEY!

It is fire safety week at Max's school and he had the perfect outfit.  

The amount of outfits that Max goes through is as insane as...he is.  

Score!

Swim suit and shirt...what's two more pieces of laundry for the day?

Sweetest girl in the world
