October Update

Another month has flown by and people are already talking about Christmas!! Before we know it, we'll have a new addition to our family! Still seems surreal!

Corinne and Ayla finished soccer this month and we're happy to temporarily have our Saturday mornings back and less hectic week nights. Corinne loved soccer and is going to play on Saturday mornings in Topsham on a 4th/5th grade co-ed team. She's also looking forward to basketball starting at the end of November.

Ayla is officially a Brownie Girl Scout. She had her induction ceremony a few weeks ago and did a great job with their first fundraiser, selling candy, nuts and magazines. She's looking forward to a sleepover this month and earning more badges.

Sophie had a great time celebrating a friend's birthday at Pineland Farms. She had a chance to see a baby calf that was born just that morning, collect chicken eggs, pet pigs and see geese. She was too scared to milk the cow, but agreed to come in and watch me do it. She loved it when one of the calves licked her.

For Halloween, Corinne was Artemis, the Greek Goddess of Hunting, Ayla was an angel and Sophie was a dragon. We had a great time at the parade checking out everyone's costumes. When Trevor got home from work we all went trick or treating in a nearby neighborhood that turned out to be a great spot. The girls came home with a ton of candy that we'll probably still be eating at Christmas time.
