September 2011

In August, my Dad, sister Michelle and brother Daniel came to visit from Malaysia. They were here for a week and we kept them busy. Took them to a Twins game, a Vikings game, the Minnesota State Fair, the Minnesota Children's Museum, the Mall of America and we went out to eat quite a bit. Here's a picture of them with Jack.


My sister and I took the kids to the American Girl Bistro for lunch. I love this picture of Jack taking a drink from the tiny doll cup. Sophie picked out a doll to sit next to him.


On Labor Day, Sophie and I went to the Minnesota State Fair together. We stayed there all day and had a wonderful time, eating our way around, checking out Little Farm Hands and going down the Giant Slide. I can't wait for next year!


Here's Sophie on the tractor at Little Farm Hands. She enjoyed the experience on our first visit to the fair that she asked to go back again.


Sophie starts ballet tomorrow, swimming on Sunday and then preschool next week! Jack is still too young for most activities, but maybe we'll sign him up for gymnastics when he's 2. Fall is one of my favorite seasons. I love the cooler weather, beautiful colors of the trees and Halloween.
