Apple Picking

We had a fun weekend!

We took Kaylee and Matthew apple picking on Saturday.

They had lots of fun running through all of the apple trees. Matthew loved pulling the apples off the trees, while Kaylee liked picking the ones off the ground and throwing them into the basket!

Surprisingly she didn't put any of them in to her mouth. Hey this is so much fun!

Kaylee also liked taking the apples out of the basket and throwing them back onto the ground...too funny!

I found a good one!

Ummmm can't wait to go home and bite into one of these apples!

Can we eat them now???

We're hungry!!!

Look at all of our apple's!

We had a fun day! After apple picking, we stopped at the outlet's had lunch and did a little shopping...fun fun!!!

We hope everyone had a nice weekend as well!

Made it...

So Matthew has made it through two weeks of pre-school and he's loving it!

He's been learning shapes which he already knows really well and he's been having fun with the glue sticks at school! He loves playtime and his teacher said he loved the tube that they climbed through the other day!

Here are his first two weeks of projects that he's made. All about shapes!

He's sooooo proud of his work...Lol:) Hope everyone has a really nice weekend!

We plan on going apple picking tomorrow, since it's gonna be the only nice day of the weekend, rain in the forecast for Sunday! :(

XOXO

My Favorite Season...

Today is the first day of Autumn!

This is my favorite season! I love the smells of fall, the cool nights, and looking forward to going pumpkin picking with the kids.

Halloween is just around the corner and we're all ready! Matthew has decided what him and Kaylee will be. He was too funny when I asked him what he wanted to be...He told me "I'm gonna be Elmo and Kaylee can be Abby(Abby Cadabby)! There was noooooo changing his mind, so Elmo has been bought and I'm hand making Kaylee's Abby costume and I really think it's coming out cute! I'll post a picture when I get it all together, I could use some opinions!

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of their week!

Never Forget...

Take a minute today to remember all of the families who lost a loved one on September 11th!

Can't believe it's been eight years already!

I can still remember that day like it was yesterday! I was at work and Jason called to say a plane hit one of the towers. That was the start to a very sad crazy day! I was soooo worried that he might be in danger being in Brooklyn, not too far from what was going on!

I was soooo glad to see him home before me that day. I just ran up to him and hugged him tight, knowing he was safe!

Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone on this somber day!

Matthew Goes to Pre-School...

Today Matthew started his first day of Pre-school!

It was so crazy to be bringing him to school. I remember the day he was born like it was yesterday!

Our Baby boy is now a "Big" boy! Wow does time fly!

So Matthew did really well with his first day. He left the house pretty happy to be going to school! We went to orientation on Tuesday, he met his teacher and saw his classroom, so he knew exactly what was going to happen, which made things easy for him to go.

I on the other hand was sad to leave him. I'm sooooo used to him being home all the time, so it's kind of a transition for me too as well as Kaylee. After dropping Matthew off we came home and Kaylee was calling for him, too cute!

Thankfully he only went for an hour today and next week...a slow transition to get the kids used to going to school. I think its for the parents too...LOL! After that he will be going Tuesdays/Thursdays for two and half hours!

I took lots of pictures and so many came out too cute, so I made a slide show of Matthew's first day!

Our Summer in Pictures

It's been over three months since I last wrote a post...Memorial Day to be exact!

Summer was busy and went waaayyyy too fast!

So instead of doing various posts, I made a slide show of our summer.

Here is just some of what we did this summer...

We went to Sesame Place with our friends Melody, John and their twin girls Hailey and Mackenzie which was really a lot of fun!

We took Kaylee to her first Mets Game, she really had no clue what was going on, but she was amazed by all of the people.

We went to a few carnivals/festivals...Matthew had a blast on all the rides, actually so did Kaylee Lol:)

We spent lots of time in the pool...thankfully it finally got nice and warm. It looked like we weren't gonna have a summer for a while, it started out very rainy and cool!

Matthew graduated from a toddler bed to a "Big Boy" twin size bed!

This was a our summer in a nutshell!

Enjoy our slide show and I will be posting more often again now that things have slowed down a little.

Matthew is starting his first day of preschool this week!

Stay tuned for pics of his day!
