3 Years, 11 Months, 3 Weeks, and 5 Days
Ruby & Charlotte are 3 years, 11 months, 3 weeks, and 5 days old today. I am in the midst of preparing everything for their birthday party that will take place on Saturday afternoon. They are extremely excited and talk about it daily. We went to Valley Orchard near Rockford on Sunday, and while it was much smaller than the one we normally go to, we had a wonderful time. Enjoy the photos!
Sitting on bales of hay:
They discovered pumpkins growing, and were in awe of how big some of them were:
I chose this farm because it was the only one that had raspberries to pick since the drought ruined so many other patches:
Picking raspberries together:

They watched this praying mantis eat a beetle, then named it "Sticko":

3 Years, 11 Months, 2 Weeks, and 5 Days
Ruby & Charlotte are 3 years, 11 months, 2 weeks, and 5 days old today. Preschool began this morning, and they are so excited to go. They are now in the 3s classroom, and will have another year of preschool after this before they can start kindergarten due to the cut off date here in Illinois. Enjoy the photos!
New socks & shoes for school made them quite happy:
Ready to leave for preschool outside our home:
They needed to dress in their current favorite colors for the first day, Ruby's being yellow & blue (she later changed it to rainbow stripes like her socks) and Charlotte's being pink & blue:
We arrived a bit early, so they wandered over to the river and looked for dragonflies:
