What a month!! Started out strong with all the festive things and ended with a raging ear infection. 
Gotta get use to being back in school and cold/flu season. No wonder why I felt like my head was spinning a little extra on Halloween. 
Still a fun month with my favorite people, bring on the rest of the holidays 
but please oh please not all the sicknesses!!!
-We went to lots of fun things in October like Gardner Village to see the witches 
, Boo Lights at Hogle Zoo! 
-The girls chose pumpkins at Grandma and Grandpa Strongs pumpkin patch (their backyard) Violet chose the biggest and Olivia chose one of the smallest ones! 
-Violet has been OBSESSED with makeup, ALL the babies and baby dolls! 
-Boo Baskets
-Violet loves to be involved with anything and everything we are doing!
-Liv and Violet love to be outside.
-Violet copies Liv a lot. She can’t put on the swimming goggles all the way in the bath tub but on her head is good enough! 
-Violet and I have been going on daily walks every morning after school drop off and it’s been really wonderful.
-Liv’s first Fun Run at school! She thought she had to win the whole race! Grandma Warner came and I’m pretty sure she ran the whole time trying to catch up to Liv and find her!
-Violet really is my little wild flower. She took a chunk out of the bar of soap while I was doing my makeup right by her one day. 
-Violet and I watched the eclipse from home while Liv and Dad had a Daddy Daughter date to Richfield!
-Crib Chats and snuggles still happen, all with incredible hair!
-Violet loves to put all bowls on her head after she eats, no matter what is in them! She also loves to say hi to everyone! 
-We had a fun fall break with a lot of relaxing, going on walks in the mountains, treats in the mountains, opening Olivia’s Donut Shoppe 
, decorating sugar cookies with the Strong cousins, painting pumpkins and having our monster movie night/apple nachos with the warner cousins! 
-Trick or Treating at Dallin’s Work 
-Liv was noticed at school for her excellence in accepting others and finding beauty in diversity!
-Celebrated my birthday! Liv asked me what I wanted weeks earlier and I told her about wanting a journal that was blank that I could write recipes in and that I could draw pictures in of upcoming things I want to do or post and she made me the cutest tiniest little book of what I wanted with blank pages. She is so thoughtful!
-We haven’t seen Cody much this month and every time Violet sees him she just cuddles right into him. It’s the sweetest thing. 
-Ward Halloween Party
-School Parade and first school party as Liv’s Room Mom it went a lot better than I expected!
