Claudia is 3 today. We kept reminding her yesterday that is was the last day she would ever be 2. It is kind of sad that my baby is growing up so fast. She helped mama decorate her butterfly cupcake this morning.

Claudia decided she wanted to go bowling on her birthday. Friend Margo and family met us but we forgot to bring the camera. We headed back home for pizza and butterfly cupcakes.

Claudia loved the mermaid tail she got from Isabel.

But she is super cute in this great jacket from Miss Emily.

Claudia got a ride in her new big bag.

And she had lots of fun opening all the presents from Aunt Jane.

Last week Isabel celebrated cousin's Madeline's birthday by going to the nail salon and getting their nails done.

Madeline turned 6 years old!

Fancy, Fancy!

This year we went to a friends house and the girls got to go trick-n-treating with a group of kids. Isabel is the butterfly and doggie Claudia is right next to her.

Friend Sami leads Lulu to the wagon for the fun to begin.

We had never experienced trick or treating like this before, the girls were pulled by a John Deer mower from house to house.

They even had rigged up lights on the sides of the trailer.

Mommy completed her first 1/2 marathon the day before Halloween. My running group all dressed up in "Where's Waldo" outfits. Izzy and Nana hold out their hands for a high five.

Here we come!!!!!!!!!!

It was fun because we all stayed together as a group. Don't we look alike?
