Weir River farm

Our playgroup went to a farm in Hingham today for story hour. All the kids had a lot of fun seeing all of the animals and being outside on a nice fall day.

Sophia and Silvia

Looking a little shocked!

Madeleine really liked the horses. She especially liked it when they would eat.

Molly and her daughter Lauren

Madeleine A thought it looked fun so she joined her.

Silvia and Madeleine were more interested in the dog then the barn animals.

Oklahoma

Madeleine and I spent a week in Oklahoma. Madeleine had a lot of fun playing with Grammy and Granddad and all of their toys. I asked her if she wanted to go home and she said, "no." Good thing we come back in a few months for Xmas.

She really like walking along the little wall in the backyard.

Looking at all of the pretty flowers.

My parent's adopted a three year old wheaten named Phantom. Madeleine liked playing with him but he was not too sure about her.

Madeleine really liked my parent;s big driveway because she had lots of space to push her stroller and ride her bike.

Playroom

We turned to sun porch into a playroom for Madeleine. She has really enjoyed having her own play space with all of her toys, books, and a table.

Here is a picture of Madeleine "helping" Paul put together a chair. She is wearing her apron because she had been "helping" me cook.

Madeleine sitting on Byron. One of her favorite places to sit. Poor Byron! I am including this picture to prove I am such a nice wife! Paul slept in so I made him breakfast in bed. Unfortunately he got up right as I was bringing it to him. Oh well, I tried!

Labor Day BBQ

Elizabeth, Lee, and teh kids came over for a BBQ on Saturday.

Playing with chalk.

The kids had a picnic on teh ground.

Girls Weekends

I have spent the past two weekends with some of my girlfriends and Paul has been super Dad and taken care of Madeleine.

Two weekends ago was Katie;s bachelorette party in Marshfield. Madeleine helped on Friday during the day with some of the prep work. Below she is pushing the beer cooler around with her bunny on it.

Madeleine even helped make sangria by adding fruit. Connecticut College friends. On Saturday night we took a limo to Provincetown. Last weekend we had an Australia reunion with the girls I traveled abroad with. The reunion was at our house but Paul was still in charge of M. We basically just sat around all weekend stuffing our faces. We did make it out of the house once to get our nails done.

Our one trip out.

Piggy Piggy

I have started putting Madeleine's hair in pigtails.

I think she looks so cute and so grown up.

Here is a picture of Madeleine running.
