happy halloween!

BOO!!

i find myself saying this all the time, but really, can the time go by any faster?? isabella will be '2' in 40 days. . . if i could lock her away i would seriously consider it. just this past week she's changed overnight into a little chatter box. she's trying hard to carry on a conversation with us, even if that means speaking in something that resembles chinese. she puts 2 or 3 words together then fills in the rest. there's never a dull moment around here that's for sure. sometimes i just stare at her & wonder 'could i be any luckier'. . .

chilly fall friday. . .

it's friday! so looking forward to spending the day with bella & enjoying a nice fall day! it looks like the rain is gone & it's going to be very chilly all weekend -yay! now off for a yummy cup of coffee, plan our day & wait for the little pumpkin to awake. . .
almost forgot to mention - wait until you see bella's halloween costume! after much begging & bribing last night, she finally allowed me to try it on her & then didn't want to take it off. if it's possible, she may have looked even cuter than last year!! ;-)

patch -2008

the pumpkin patch. . .

sunday turned out to be a beautiful day, so we headed over to the local pumpkin patch. bella rode another pony this year with no fear. she 'belly laughed' once she realized she was actually riding a 'real' pony! the bunnies were a big hit too.
she was promised '2' pumpkins & we left with '5'. . . of course!

i know she's mine, but really. . ?? could she be any cuter?! please!
