A picture says 1000 words...

If so, with this post, I'm probably saying about 50,000 words! Good thing I only post once a month, if that. :-)

Here are my princesses. We don't have Halloween pictures but, these are their costumes.

Sweet Cinderella with hair in her eyes.
Belle in curtsy. (Is that how you spell curtsy?)

One princess helping another.

Have I told you that Mia is a big shot? She gave up on the high chair and now sits at the table.

The big shot with her big shot breakfast.

We had a spectacular fall this year in Chicago. These are the trees right by our grocery store.

While Olivia is in dance class, Mia and I go to the park (weather permitting).

The big shot getting off the horse on her own.

The big shot in her big swing.

Tony chasing girls in the corn pit at the pumpkin farm.

"Yes, mommy, I LOVE my sunglasses!"

Olivia on the jumping pillow at the pumkin farm.

Olivia showing off that her skirt has built in shorts (thank goodness!) I've seen those shorts in public so much I was beginning to worry about where this kid is headed in life.Tony and Mia on the jumping pillow.

Olivia and Mia in the corn pit.

TA-DAAA!!!

Yes, Mia. That ear has feet.

Typical pose, Olivia making faces and Mia sucking her thumb. Both of them looking away from the camera.

Tony took Mia all the way to the top of the hay playground.

Mia would not let us ride with her on the cow barrels. She screamed and screamed until we let her go alone. Did I mention that she's a big shot?

Mia made friends with the big boy next to her and after helping him fill his shirt with corn, decided to fill her own. Notice how they are sharing the same pose?

Can you guess how much corn we found in her diaper later?

Mia and her favorite hat.

Mia doesn't sit at the table to eat, she stands on her chair.

Mia's last night in the crib. Again, stuffed herself into the corner of her crib for her last night in the crib.

Mia's big girl bed

Look! Mommy and daddy got their first bed frame. It only took 8 years of marriage to actually get a bed frame. Have I mentioned how long it takes us to make a decision?

My two little girls, reading together. Olivia was pouting and wouldn't look at the camera.
