We love Anna's hair!

Ready to go!

Anna's photo shoot

Here's our little angel.

Halloween

We hosted a little Halloween party for our babysitting group on Friday. The kids had lots of fun and were so cute.
We also went to Daddy's work to trick or treat. The girls have been waiting for this all year. Here's Daddy's new office. He has a window!

Pumpkin patch and ward Halloween party

Our local pumpkin patch was a big hit.

Usually Anna calls Austin "my friend the baby." Tonight, she said, "The baby is my friend the bee!"

The costume parade:

"Belle" interviewed the girls, "Which princess are you?"

Anna's Third Birthday

A few days ago, Anna changed her mind about having a "pink birthday cake." She requested a "rainbow cake with a rainbow duck." Here's what we came up with:

Anna got a new baby dolly, a Bambi book, and a stroller from Grandma and Grandpa. We sure love our grown-up Anna!

Austin's one-year portraits

Austin was pretty somber for his photo shoot. After lots of clapping and singing, we coaxed a few little smiles out of him.

Here's the winning shot. What a sweet little boy we have.

Swimming!

Our rec center has a fun little toddler swimming (more like splashing) area. The girls loved the kid-size shower. On the way home, Mary said, "Now I smell like a waterfall!"

Mary summed up the day, "Quack, quack!"
