October Fun

Well, it's been way too long since I've updated the blog. So much has happened so quickly. I can't believe how quickly time flies when you're enjoying life.

Daniel is growing like a weed! He's so big and he's really stretching out, just like Sarah did. The poor boy will never know what a fat roll is because he'll just stretch and stretch some more. I guess it is in the Resch genes because Jorda is way tall...then again I'm pretty tall for a girl too. I guess my kids get it from the two of us.

Sarah is adjusting to the life of big sisterhood really well. There are times she struggles with splitting Mommy's attention, but overall she's a real sport. I do try and make time for her and just her as well. I know how hard it is to go from 100% attention to 50% attention. But, we're doing really well and Sarah is very independent and plays with her toys by herself when my time is being occupied with Daniel.

I love October. One of the reasons is the smell of fall. I just love it. I also like the cooler days as well. Almost every day Sarah, Daniel and I walk to the park the "long" way which is about a mile or a little more. It's great to get out in the fresh fall air and walk. Daisy comes too and is very good about not pulling me too (as long as her gentle leader is on, anyway).

The second reason I love October is Halloween. I've been very busy making the kids costumes. Sarah is Cinderella this year and Daniel is going to be Gus-Gus. Sarah's costume is finished and I'm currently working on finishing Daniel's. If I have time I'll sew myself a Fairy Godmother costume. But, we'll just have to see how ambitious I really am.

The Pumpkin Walk is this week. Sarah, Jordan, Becca, and I went to the park to carve pumpkins for them to display around the Pumpkin Walk. Jordan's not into Halloween or decorating or anyting, but he was awesome and helped Sarah carve her pumpkin. He even enjoyed himself, I dare say. Nana watched Daniel while we went, I wasn't about to let him get chilled and sick.

So, just around the corner I'll post all the Halloween pictures! I'm so excited!!
