Wheely Big Trucks

This past weekend we went to a touch a truck event in Downers Grove. You get to climb on all these big trucks, we had a great time. Matthew even got to beep the horn on some of them.

Here Matthew is driving a tractor.

Driving a bus.

Grant said this was some kind of lawn mower I think.

Matthew called this one a scoop truck.

What Can You do in 15 Minutes?

The other day since it was nice out Matthew, Molly, and I played outside. That was an experience because when we play out front occasionally Matthew will change activities quite quickly. This was a little harder this time since Molly was with us too. See if you can do this much in 15 minutes or less and clean it up. In addition to what you see here we also played a little hockey.

Ride a bike with helmet.

Hula hoop

Bounce on a ball.

Do some leaf blowing.

Cut the grass.

Hanging Out at Home

How cute are they? They sleep in the same position.

I had to include this one. Barbie was very nice and gave us the present of getting Peyton groomed and look at the cute bows they put in her hair. Apparently Peyton likes to look at herself in the mirror the groomer told us.

We walked into the living room and saw Matthew reading to Molly.

Our new family in front of our house.

He loves to hold her.

Little hands

He set his puzzles up all organized like this for some reason.

Every time I take a picture he wants to take one of him and Molly.

Pumpkin Patch #2

Here we are at our second pumpkin patch of the season. This is actually still September and it was also almost 90 degrees (That's pumpkin patch weather). Hey you may make fun but we could be laughing when it is 30 degrees when you go. This is Goebberts Pumpkin Patch.

Miss Molly in her Halloween attire. All the Halloween clothes I have are for cooler weather, so here she is wearing an orange sleeveless onesie.

Bath Time

Here are some pictures of Molly's 1st real bath since her umbilical cord fell off. Matthew and Molly now have bath time together. Grant watches Matthew and I'm in charge of Molly. As you can see from the pictures she did not enjoy the bath that much. But you will also notice that Matthew really loves his bath time.

Bubble Beard

At least here she wasn't crying.

Fashion Model Molly

Molly is quite the little model. She is already much more trendy and up to date on fashion than I probably will ever be. Here are a few of her recent outfits and accessories.

First Restaurant/Mall Trip

We promised Matthew before Molly was born that we would go to Rainforest Cafe after she came. Well he has been asking about it since she was born so we decided to take them today. This was Molly's first restaurant trip and then we also walked around the mall so it was her first mall trip as well.

Matthew, Mommy, Molly before we left. I don't know who is more excited to get out of the house Matthew or I. Although he has been out more than I have.

He had a great time.

We had a good table right next to the fish tank.

Matthew looks scared because the big frog was just at our table right after we had finished telling him that no big frogs walk around the restaurant. He of course said they did and I guess he was right. Molly slept through half the meal, but while I was feeding her she did watch the fish swimming in the tank.

Miss Molly

I love this outfit.

Grant loved the headband.

Matthew wanted to take this picture with Molly.

Girls always have to accessorize.

Enjoying Baby Einstein.

Looking like a little angel.
