We started our day off with a trip to the dentist. That went pretty well, Emma did very well, and they said her teeth looked very good and there were no problems to report. So, that was good news. After the dentist, we headed to Hy-Vee for some breakfast. Emma had a chocolate donut with some chocolate milk, and I had some coffee and a muffin. It was wonderful.
We decided to get haircuts after that, and Emma got a cute little bob and looks adorable. After haircuts we made a trip to the library and picked out some new books and movies. Next was lunch. Emma and I had a lunch date at Noodles and Company, which was delicious. Last, but not least, we headed to Walmart for a few essentials. Emma loved spending the day just the two of us, but was pretty beat after all the stops around town and she took a good nap.
After naps, we went and picked Elliott up from daycare, and then spent the evening playing outside and enjoying the beautiful fall weather. It was a great day with Emma, and I loved spending some quality time with her.
I also had Thursday off, so I kept both kids home with me on Thursday, and we had a beautiful fall day to enjoy together. We spent some time playing outside, and jumping in the leaves again. We also went to the zoo, and enjoyed running around there for a while seeing all the animals. They also had all their decorations up for Zoo Boo, so we got to see all the Zoo Boo decorations without all the crowds, it was awesome. To top it off, it was sunny, about 68 degrees, and just a perfect fall day.
We also spent the evening carving some pumpkins. John and I each carved two pumpkins and then Emma decorated and colored one pumpkin. Emma really enjoyed the pumpkins.
Friday evening, we invited Grandma Barb and Grandpa Jim to come with us to Zoo Boo. It was another gorgeous evening, so there were a lot of people at Zoo Boo. We had to stand in line for quite a while, but it was a fun evening. Emma really enjoyed it, and had been talking about Zoo Boo for about 2 weeks before we went to it. So, she was very excited, and she enjoyed all the candy and treats she got while she was there as well. Since it was so nice, and apparently we hadn't had enough sugar yet, we went out for ice cream after Zoo Boo. We had some hyper kids after that.
I worked all weekend, so John spent some quality time with the kids and it sounds like they had a nice weekend. Right now, the kids are at daycare since they are having Halloween Parties today, which Emma was super excited about. After that, we are going to John's office to do some Trick or Treating, and then of course coming home and Trick or Treating in our neighborhood. It should be a very fun evening :)
