and that was October

Enough is enough.  It is almost December and I am still in October in back blog.  So, here is the rest of October- in fast forward to get us into November.   

Mr. D. bought this cute jar for me.  I was going to make a new snack mix every couple of weeks and post the recipe on my blog.  PLEASE STOP LAUGHING.... nah- go ahead, it is pretty much hysterical to think I would have time to do that.   OK- so here was my first mix.  But, by now I can't remember where I got the recipe and it wasn't all that good anyway.  So, disregard. 

Here is a cute decoration that I had out- it was Shelby last year around Halloween time.  Precious!

We had a crazy week where all of Shelby's three Fairy Grandmother had to come and take a turn spending the day with her so Mama could work and Hanny the Nanny could be off too.   Of course, I didn't take a picture of My Mom and Shelby (oops).  Here is Becky (Mr. D.'s step mom) and Shelby.

 Here is Linda (Mr. D.'s Mom) and Shelby. 

 We went to Gymboree..........

 Mr. D. built Shelby climber that she got last Christmas.....

 In the living room where it still remains to this day. 

 We went to the fall festival at CMS. Here is Shelby and her cupcake (Kate). 

 I just LOVE this fabulous outfit! 

 For Halloween Shelby was a ladybug. 

 This little guy is my new neighbor Andrew.  He moved into the Lovell house next door. 

 And of course, Avi, Ki, Shelby, Noel and Bethany

I was a witch.  This is Audrey--- she was my inspiration in my outfit.  

Shelby loved playing in my tutu. 

 and this was my broom. 

  But.... instead of making one big tutu-- I made 5 smaller tutus, and tied them with ribbons and bows......

And after trick of treating.. untied the bows and gave out the goodies to my guest....

Before the end of Trick or Treating... Eden and Alice stopped by! 

 This was Shelby's sweet little trick of treat bag.  

Shelby, Brady and the Gigi's cupcake

Every Saturday after Gymboree we go to Gigi's and get a cupcake to bring home.  Here is a photo shoot I did of Brady trying to scam the cupcake from Shelbs. I can not even express to you how much these two love each other.
