End of September

And just like that, it's October!  Here are a few pics during the end of September:

Dave had a work event downtown on the USS Midway so we gave him an early birthday present and we stayed the night downtown and Sydney & Cole had their first sleepover!  Sydney was SO excited to pack her backpack full of clothes and her toothbrush!

All ready!

Cheese!

Sydney let Cole borrow one of her backpacks.

They were waving bye to us before we left our house :)  Poppa was out of town for work but Nani graciously took them in for Saturday and Sunday.  We are SO very appreciative.  They had a blast...and we did too!

Walking/riding to the park.  Sydney saw her balance bike she got for her birthday (that she wasn't into) in our guest room and decided she liked it and wanted to ride it!

She's getting good at it (it has no pedals... you pedal with your feet which is supposed to make the transition to a 2-wheeler easier)

Daddy and Cole

We had a playdate last week and there were 8 moms and 18 kids!  Surprising, it was one of the easiest mornings ever - everyone got along so well (this is only a portion of the group)!

Cole loves walking on the sidewalk now... just like his big sister!

She asked him if she could hold his hand :) 

Both kiddos went to the dentist this month - it was Cole's first visit.  Sydney did SO great!

Nani offered to come along since she wasn't working that day and I am SO glad she did.  I would have been doable, but crazy, by myself!

Sydney is loving drawing these days!  She is over at her easel all the time now!

Can you see the people she's drawing??

We got out our fall decorations last week and this is the outfit she chose!  She makes us laugh! 

She was in rare form - I wish this picture came out better.  And those Halloween socks... she wouldn't let me wash!  She wore them for 4 days straight!!!
