Fall and Thanksgiving






It has been a wonderful fall season. The weather has been great! There have been many outside playtimes, especially in the leaves. Bella and Morgan love the leaves. Morgan loves to rake them into a pile for Bella to play in. Too cute! Bella loves this mild fall weather. Everyday, when we come home, Bella wants to play outside for a bit. She loves walking around the yard, playing in the leaves, and playing with the rocks. Morgan loves just hanging outside :)

Thanksgiving was very different for us this year. This was the first time in 10 years that we did not travel to NJ or PA for Thanksgiving. Instead, we stayed home. Greg's family joined us for a Thanksgiving Feast. The girls had a blast with all of their cousins.

Bella continues to amaze us with her language. She knows so much and has so many words in her vocabulary. She looks through her vocabulary books and names things like "jack," "eagle," "refrigerator," and "yo-yo" to name just a few. She blows our minds. He is our little terror, though. She is into EVERYTHING! She climbs on EVERYTHING! She touches things she is knows she is not supposed to while saying "no no." She takes things she isnt supposed to and runs with them and hides in the corner. She is NOTHING like Morgan was :) But we love her to bits! Oh, she has 4 molars coming in at the same time!

Morgan is doing great, too! She made honor roll her first quarter of school. We are so proud of her. She continues with her violin and has her first middle school orchestra concert this Friday. Look for a video soon :) She is taking a break from swimming until after the first of the year due to an injury. She was diagnosed with Severs Disease which is a disease that will pass but is quite painful for her right now. It is an injury to the growth plate in her heel, causing pulling on her achilis tendon. She continues with karate, in moderation. Oh, while Bella has teeth coming in, Morgan is losing teeth...2 in the past week!
