Trick or treat

Valencia was sure to personally give every kid a piece of candy. Every time people came to the door she would scream with excitement. For over an hour she watched, waited and handed out candy.

Pumpkin carving with Grandpa

Guts!!!!!

Grandpa

Valencia and Grandpa spent the entire day together. Eating, sleeping, diapers and cleaning up the yard. Then she helped us book our flights to Chicago, note the size of the monitor Daniel is using while Valencia, Grandpa and I are using my phone.

Some work, mostly play

Valencia went to work with Mama today and played with bubble wrap for the first time. Then she got to go play with her friend Jonah and his new little brother Jacob. She had a blast rocking a real baby in his swing.

Pass the hug

Valencia gave Noni a hug the other day and asked her to pass it along to her Great Grandfather

In the zone

Apples

Valencia had fun playing with Uncle Daniel and Auntie Monica tonight. It was to dark for a picture but her favorite part was picking apples off the tree and throwing them across the yard.

Bedtime story

Valencia is getting so big she just reads her own story now.

Pumpkin Patch

Valencia mostly liked to run around and try to pick up every pumpkin and put it in the wagon. Her favorites were the ugly bumpy ones. She took time to wave and say hi to everyone that she saw.

Snack time

Always the gentleman

Valencia had a fun day with Charlie. He pushed her in the car and even tried to open the door for her. After a few dozen times down the slide it was time for lunch and a nap.

All you can eat pasta

Better put your hood up this could get messy

Long day

Valencia and I had a long day running errands. She was very patient with all the sitting and waiting.

Grammy

Valencia shared her snack with Grammy today. You smell it and ill eat it.

I want this one

Valencia came to work with me for a little bit today. I thought kids started looking for their first car when they were around fifteen years old. Not mine, she picks out a Bentley at fifteen months.

Polish playpen

We had a ton of stuff to do around the house so Noni and Grandpa got a bonus Valencia day. She has been a bit wild lately so Grandpa confined her to a more manageable area. As you can tell she had a blast playing in the dirt.

Lazy morning

This morning Valencia just wanted to lay around with a few friends. She's the third one from the left.

bye bye Kanye

Our new realtor wants us to change a few things around the house. When I told Valencia we had to take down the pictures in Abbots room she was so upset she ran in to give Kanye a kiss. Thankfully she got over it when we gave her a few treats to give Abbot.
