Tommerup's visit and it gets cold in Midland!

Time for the warm pajamas--my favorite time of the year!

 

 

we sure miss "Ms. Leslie" (and Dustin & Hayes) :) 

 

time to get bundled up... apparently we still need to get some mittens for these girls..Oma, that's up to you!  :)

 

ice everywhere, tree branches broken everywhere..=. no fun for Brian...

 

and delicious to eat apparently....

Violet Marjorie

Somehow with all the happenings--my poor little niece got neglected from her announcement!  Well, no longer-- proud to announce a new niece--Violet Marjorie (named after her old Oma) arrived October 8th, weighing in at 7 lbs 3 ozs with tons of hair.  What a beauty, we can't wait to meet her. 

 

 

the new Walcott family

 

with Oma and Opa

 

with Gianna... wish Helena could be in this picture, maybe we should photoshop her in it.  :)

Evelyn is growing up--she looks like a little girl, not a toddler in these pictures! 

 

 

Savannah's new boots/outfit... pretty thrilled with them even though its not a dress

 

bedtime routine--and time with daddy

 

Evie practicing being sweet

 

and Helena--not quite so little anymore, but still has quite white fuzzy hair

 

Karolyn, these are for you--had to put her in the outfit on the 80 degree day... she wore it for awhile and then proceeded to spit up all over it so off it went already.  :)

Fall happenings

We went to our very first trunk or treat.  Evie was a lady bug and Savannah was a medieval princess.  They were both pretty enthralled with the whole experience--and surprise surprise Evie had no issues going up to people and begging for candy.  It was actually pretty fun though--will probably do this again next year!

 

 

Brian carving pumpkins again--the girls were absolutely no help of course.

 

...but they sure loved the results!  Savannah requested a nice one and a scary one. 

hehe... love these two pictures... he's not going to be thrilled when he sees I posted them.  :)

 

ahh yes and the dramatic dancing that goes on in this house on a daily basis now.  if you feel so led to see this in person, let me know, they love to show their "ballet" on skype

 

Thanks Laura for the super cozy and adorable duck sleeper!  She almost fits in it

 

wide awake--and still having huge cheeks
