Our week began Tuesday because Pete and I were away for the first couple of days of the week....
Tuesday: We went with our friends to Drumlin Farm to see the animals, go on a hayride and eat a fun picnic outside. Braden loved running around with his buddies and Gracie was thrilled to show off to my Mommy friends that she can walk a little bit now! Pretty soon she'll be standing at the fence and running with the boys just like her "little sister" friends!

 |
| Poor Gracie can't keep up on foot yet - so she gets a ride in the stroller. |
 |
| The kids climbed all over this long tree after our picnic! |
 |
| Gracie was ready for a nap and not pleased that she kept falling while attempting to walk after lunch (she's also probably jealous of the older kids running around when she couldn't do it!) |
Thursday: Braden had swim lessons in the morning (he did AWESOME again!!). After nap time we played outside in the sunshine. Gracie loves the "wee" (slide) and the "wing" (swing) in the backyard. Braden loves sliding down the slide with Gracie on his lap. He also had learned to pump on his own big boy swing! Yay!

Friday: It was a plan free morning so the kids and I went to the playground and had it all to ourselves! Gracie crawled around and enjoyed all the equipment! She's getting so big! The three of us had a blast on the swings together. I even showed off by jumping off - which resulted in me ripping my fleece jacket - oops.

Saturday: We went to the Fall Festival with my parents (Nana and Granddad), Aunt Crista and baby Anna. Braden rode the pony, fed the animals at the little petting zoo and got his face painted. Gracie loved playing on the toys they had set up. It was fantastic!
 |
| Gracie enjoyed a cookie while watching her big brother's face transform into a tiger |
 |
| I'm shocked he let someone do this to him - he's such a neat freak! |
 |
| He loved it until he saw it - then when we got home he made us wash it right off - I knew he was a neat freak! Ha ha! |
Sunday: It's quiet day here at the Fox household. We spent the morning sleeping in, watching Tangled and doing yard work. Gracie found some chalk to entertain herself while her big brother rode around in circles on his bike.
 |
| Just a little chalk drawing in her socks while Daddy did the yard work and Braden rode is bike- no big deal! |
So that's our week. I have been looking forward to doing this "week of iphone pics" ever since I began reading
this blog. She does it weekly and I love it! Hope you enjoyed and I'll see you tomorrow for my big 31st Birthday!! :o)
