My sister was in town (sans her family) from Indiana this past weekend. On Friday night, the kids and I hung out with my sisters & parents at my parents house. I put the kids to bed there and played cards with my mom and sisters. I loaded the kids in the car at about 1130pm to head home. Isaac stayed awake on the ride home and silently watched out the window. When we got to the stop light just outside of our development, I looked over my shoulder and whispered, "We're home."
He looked at me, dazed, and said in a sweet little voice, "ohm".
Melt my heart!

Apple Orchard 2012
We have made a yearly tradition to visit the apple orchard with the Burback family. The girls always have a fabulous time together and, right now, all Isaac needs is some room to run and he's a happy camper! Next visit, I'm sure that baby Adam & Isaac will be stirring up trouble together!
tractor/train ride
hayride (Isaac and I decided to forego this one and do some running in the field)
seriously, never stops moving!
do you think he's having fun?!
besties :)
Tumbling
Gabby started tumbling a couple of weeks ago. This class was a perfect opportunity for her to get some exposure without a big investment, since we weren't sure she'd love it. But, she's having a great time! We go once/week for 45 minutes. Seven little girls and one teenage instructor (who does a fantastic job with the kids). So much fun!
Say What?!
Last weekend, we had to grab a gift for my cousins daughter's birthday party, so the kids and I made a run to Target.
I should preface this by saying that I bring the kids to Target, but we do not frequent the toy section. We don't avoid it, we just don't have a need to visit that area of the store.
Anyway, so I already had it in my mind that we were going to buy a teeny, tiny baby doll. When we got to the doll aisle, Gabby was AWE. I don't think I can put into words.
Seriously, jaw dropped open, touching every single doll.
"Mommy! This baby has a car seat!" She then proceeds to tell me that she's "getting this one", as she's pulling a large box off the shelf.
I said, "No, we aren't buying a baby for you today, you'll have to ask for one for Christmas."
She continues to touch each baby on the shelves then turns to me and says, "No, I'm going to get this one instead!" (she's too enamored to even have heard what I said previously).
I said, "Well, you'll have to ask Santa for it, we are not buying a baby for you today."
After a very short pause she says, in a what in the WORLD are you talking about tone,
"WHO'S SANTA?!"
(we had a refresher at home) :)
