Happy Birthday Great Grandma!

We had an excellent time helping great grandma celebrate her 82nd birthday!


Keira enjoyed exploring grandma's yard- especially the bird bath!






She loves to stomp around in daddy's work boots!



Thanks to ebay, we have finally chosen our Halloween costumes for this year! Hooray! Keira is a chicken and I have two costumes for Quinn- a frog and a pumpkin. Total spent- $18! Love that!! (pictures to follow soon)
I'm also always looking for toy suggestions- I'm cheap and don't want to spend much money on toys- which is why I make most of our toys, but we came across some great ones (these were actually gifts for Keira so even better on the budget!) The "My first words" building blocks with sliding windows is perfect for Keira! They stack, slide, help learn words, and come in a neat box with a strap that can be a pretend purse! They also keep her entertained for more than 5 minutes! The other is a tea set that comes in a clear plastic backpack. Keira loves taking things out, organizing, putting things back in, playing "tea" with Quinn, and wearing the cool backpack around the house. Minutes of fun!!!
