Falling into Fall!

Life (as many mommies warned me) continues to get busier and busier with each day. No matter how prepared I am for the week, I can never quite catch up!!  Seanna started back to school again and is loving it.  She is doing even better this year now that she has the routine down and even has a little pack of friends (I've been told by the teacher that she is the ring leader).  It's quite funny to see these four little girls all together.  The kids all get super excited when I come in to pick her up with her baby sister...  Even though she loves hanging out with these little girls, sometimes I pick her up and she is hanging by herself as well.  Not only that, but she normally makes me wait anywhere from 20-40 minutes until she feels that she is done playing.  


We are all getting ready around here too for Halloween.  She decided that she wanted to be a pirate this year so she and her sister have matching tutu's being made right now.  Can't wait to see how they turn out.  We are going to trick or treat again with the same crew as last year.  Should be fun for all!!!!!!  


We unfortunately had ANOTHER flood in our house and are going to lose all of the hardwood floors downstairs and have a huge project ahead of us to get the house back on track.  We've been in and out of the house due to construction stuff and have been put on hold for a few days while they order some supplies.  


She is still absolutely in love with her sister and still loves to mess with her whenever she can.  They have a ritual each night of playing outside after dinner and love to play in the toy cars (Seanna drives and Nola tries to chase after her on foot).  It's very fun to watch.  Seanna has an extremely STRONG personality which is sometimes a challenge to manage but it's also extremely charming when she wants to be.  She is definitely one of the smartest three year olds I've met (of course I'm a bit biased).  


Happy Halloween and Fall to you all!
