Loosing Teeth

Spending some time with friends and my little man at the Chelsea treehouse... a fun place

And another one gone :(...

I had him in LONG pants but only due to an accident and I had only long pants in the car to change into :)... he wouldn't want to take a picture and as soon as we got home he changed into shorts... it's cold and he is cold all the time but he refuses to wear long pants or long-sleeves... oh well... he has to live with it

Rocking Dustin's Shirt for Zoe's swim competition ;)

And we're on again... got some cool chairs that makes it easier to sit there for the 2 hrs... cheering on our little fish

Pumpkin Patch ...  forgot to take pics when they actually picked out their pumpkin... they wanted to play as well

Pumpkin Soup... yum

My new glasses... with glitter :)... I got used to it. Henry doesn't like them but I get compliments everywhere I go so I guess I picked out good :)

Trick or Treating at the Henry Ford Estate. This year we're having a Tinkerbell aka a fairy and Batman

Carving Pumpkins.... they did a great job this year... I have to do less and less each year ;)

I made some pumpkin bread last night too and another pumpkin pie. Pumpkin Quiche comes next *yum* problem is... who will eat it? I really miss my teenagers when it comes to my cooking and baking days... at least they ate all of it with joy... at least Henry ate the bread. They both didn't like the soup, Frank only eats the pie... I need somebody else I can cook and bake for... ;)

Ears pierced...

A fun day with friends at Greenfield Village on Monday and my little man :). We went today again with other friends... it always is an amazing time. 

So Zoe and I had a deal... since she really wanted to get her ears pierced I told her (hoping that it won't be for a long while) that she would have to stop biting her nails. She bit her nails really bad and it looked scary for her future and for manicures etc. so she was on a mission... I think we made that pact in May/ June or so... now it's October and even without the disgusting tasting nail polish on the nails started to grow and I was actually already able to cut her nails twice!!! So I had to follow up with my promise and let her get her ears pierced. She was very brave and she's so proud showing off her ears... it's the cutest thing and I'm so proud to be her mom... she's such a great girl.

She was over the moon and back when it was done and she had her ears pierced, even this morning when she got up and when I picked her up from school... she still cannot believe she has earrings :)

Henry is 5!

It seems like every time I want to start a post I complain about how fast time flies ;)... so I should just stop doing that... the fact is... it is flying and I totally dislike the fact but we're having a ton of fun :).

Orchards opened up for the fall fun and sure enough you can find us there enjoying a wonderful fall day out on a hay ride or in the corn maze or just having a blast :). 

We mastered the corn maze with 5 kids. Woohoo... we had a blast though.

Meanwhile Henry turned 5 already! How did that happen? No idea... I cannot believe that that little munchkin of ours is already 5 years old! He had an amazing birthday party and we enjoyed a great time on his birthday

Birthday Boy, 5 years old with his chocolate chip pancake and whip cream (his breakfast wish)

For dinner we went to Chuck E Cheese to play games, fly jets and eat pizza

House wise we have some great and sad news... great news is the house appraisal came back sooner than we thought but it came back actually way less worth than we were agreeing on paying for the house. Which is good you would think and we were really excited about it however we don't believe that the seller would entertain even the thought about selling us the house for the price but we don't give up hope yet... we could still get the house for the market value if they agree to it. Or we will end up not moving into this wonderful house... so I can tell you with this house hunting experience now I think we've taken every single rollercoaster corner with us and every single loop there is... but if we will get the keys in the end it was all worth it... wish us luck... it ain't over until it's over and Frank and I really hope they'd sell it to us but we would also understand if they decide to maybe wait another year and put it back on the market next year but we don't think they would get the $ that they're hoping for, even in a year... but it's not in our hands at this point we can only hope we will get it... wish us luck...
