Fall Break

This was the 6th fall break I've had to look forward to, yet I was far more excited for this one than any other fall break I've ever had. I got to spend it will my favorite little girl!

I unfortunately failed to take pictures of many of the things we did, but here's a little recap!

 

I started the break out in classic Brittany style, celebrating with my friends at Oktoberfest.

 

Ellie and I went with two of her favorite aunties to the Farmer's Market (we may or may not be becoming Farmer's Market Junkies), out to lunch, and shopping!

  

The weather outside has been ridiculously beautiful, so we spent a lot of
time at the park by our house.

 

 

We went shopping and out to lunch... more than once. We met Daddy for lunch a couple of times. Ellie and her sweet friend Peyton got to have their very first playdate!
 

We went to a couple different story times at the library.

 

We signed up for Gymboree play and music classes and we are SO excited!
Deciding to hire a nanny to take care of Ellie was one of the best parenting decisions we've made. We feel so fortunate to have found someone that cares so much for our girl and Ellie absolutely adores her! However, because of this Ellie doesn't get the interaction most kids get in a day care type setting. Hence, operation play date, story time, and baby classes has begun!

 

We went to the Sea Life Aquarium and little Miss Observant loved every second!

 

 

 

 

We went to Ellie's first pumpkin patch, Schnepf Farms.

We worked on crawling and she is OH so close! I was really hoping it would happen while I was home this week because my biggest fear is that it will happen while I'm at work. :(

 

We met up with one of my long-time girlfriends who is expecting her own little spring 2014!

 

I had an hour AND a half massage. It was uh-mazing!

 

I was able to go out with some girlfriends for lunch and a movie to celebrate a birthday
for one of my best friends!

We got our Halloween costumes! Stay tunes for some fab-ulous pictures!
 

JP took a couple days off of work, so it was really nice to such a great amount of uninterrupted quality time with our little family. I treasure these moments!

 

I seriously had the best, best time. Now, I've gotta get it together because I have to go back to work tomorrow. Wish me luck --- I need it!
