Fall!

October is here! This is my favorite time of year. The kick off is Halloween and finally I have people to enjoy dressing up with. Albert has never really liked to dress up and sometimes knocks the wind out of my sails. This year Izadora is a little good witch and Olivia will be a flapper. She is hopefully going to get a hair cut this week. We are going to the Base because we had such a good time last year.

Izadora is on the verge of walking. She pulls herself up and takes a few steps holding on to things. She is getting her first teeth also. Two on the bottom and in front. She loves playing in her room with her big sister and has been having a blast with the Dora tent. She has been enjoying strolls at the College with Mama in the evenings and cooking in the kitchen. We started potty training Izzie too. She has had several potties in the potty. Olivia even tells her, "Izzie no peepee en pisuo (piso)" when she goes in her diaper. She sleeps all through the night now and is no longer nursing. This has made her a little grouchy at times.

Olivia loves riding bikes, "wunning", and the trampolin at Abuelas. She flew her first plane today. It was amazing as soon as pilot Roger showed her the controls she said, "coz a door." and was off! It helped that one of the planes was amarrillo her favorite color. She has been taking really good care of her sister. They play so nice together. Olivia and Izadora both love bath time and Olivia tells Izzie what the toys are in the bath.

We are so excited about the up-coming events this season. I hope we can make a trip to a pumpkin patch this year and we want to take some more photos of Izzie. We are going to Phoenix for Christmas and every time I think about it I am so excited because it has been a long time since we spent Christmas there. Then we have fun filled things happening every month until March. It's going to be a good, expensive, happy next five months.

Love and miss you all,
Mama
