She literally climbed in the drawer by herself and wanted to hold all of the lotions... with only two hands, one had to go in the mouth...
This is how Mattie colors.... partially on paper, mostly on herself....
This is how Mattie takes baths now... her goal is to eat all of the bubbles before they go away...
We got a few pics of Mattie in her halloween shirt before it melted off...
Alyssa was quick to pick out a pumpkin, Mattie checked it out but decided against lifting an orange ball that weighed more than her....
Mattie always enjoys giving Sylvie hugs, even in 90 degree + heat....
She quickly lost her shirt... then her jeans, socks, and shoes... if only mamas could walk around practically naked maybe we would have stayed longer ;)
The pumpkin patch had a cool corn maze for us to get lost in...
At the end of the day, Mattie just needed to rest on a pumpkin.....
Our last day, we went to a fun park... the girls rode the slide together....
And Mattie was surprised to see her BFF Tatum in AZ! They were visiting family as well, so they came by for a play date before we headed to the airport.... what a fabulous weekend! By the way, that was the short version (3 posts)... I had 120 photos to choose from!
Mattie was missing her dada so she decided to give him a call...
The girls played some more.. this time at a mall playground (indoor)... they had a blast climbing and sliding on everything they could find... and yes, we dressed them in overalls together on purpose ;)
Later that day we went to the pumpkin patch... Mattie tried to climb in to see the goats!
But then one jumped out, so they got to pet it up close and personal...
Seistors and cousins...
Mattie and I went to AZ to visit Auntie Amy, Uncle Jason, and cousin Ryan on Thursday night. After surviving our first flight together we rested up for the next day of fun. We went to the zoo and saw lots of animals....
And even got to run around a water play area in the 95 degree heat....
By lunchtime the girls were getting tired, so we headed home for naps...
After naps, it was more play time! Ryan's room was full of fun stuff to explore!
But first, there were horses to see.... too bad they were behind a fence....
Trying to get three kids to pose at a pumpkin patch proved to be impossible... here is the only group shot I got... Alyssa takes the lead, followed by Mattie, and Sylvie hangs out with Nadine in the back... You'll definitely need to click this pic to enlarge it...
Alyssa and Mattie had the same idea... climb over the fence so we can go run around with the goats! Let me in, let me in!
And Mattie really tried to get friendly with the animals, here, she is trying to kiss a goat!
What a great day! Trains, pumpkins, horses, and a zoo... Can a kid really ask for anything more?
The "big girls" played at the park on Sunday evening... seriously, check them out, they are such little kids now!
Mattie shows Tatum how to go down the slide all by herself at a different park on Monday evening. Their personalities haven't changed much, Mattie is still the brave one, daredevil child, and Tatum is still more on the cautious side and takes her time.
When did my baby become such a big girl???
