Dress Up!

Can I just say, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE having a girl! Why didn't anyone tell me it was so fun! It's like I get to play dress up every day. Sometimes when I am bored (ok, really when I just don't want to do any more laundry or pick up any more toys, I am never "bored"...) I just dress her up in all her different outfits and take pictures. She doesn't love it, but she is a pretty good sport! I absolutely love these outfits! I think hats are so cute on babies, you gotta love the accessories! Thanks to all my great friends who supplied me with so many cute outfits to play dress up with Madilyn!!!

SERIOUSLY???

Ok, so the other day I am inside feeding the baby while the boys are playing outside in the backyard. Once she is asleep, I go outside, and this is what I find! Seriously, Peyton, where do you come from??? He had taken off all his clothes and was riding his horse buck naked just smiling and laughing and having a grand old time....I said, "PEYTON!!!" and he looked at me in all honesty and innocence said, "what?" like he didn't know he had done anything wrong. Ok, this kid is worrying me, he loves makeup and loves to be naked, anyone else see a problem with this?

Halloween Night

Halloween

Halloween was crazy this year, it seemed like a blur. Trying to get three kids in costumes, and then trying to take their picture all together turned out to be impossible. The baby was a good sport about wearing her costume multiple times...once I replaced the antenna hat with a bow (thanks Laura!) she was much happier! Halloween night we had our families over and had a big dinner. Everyone really got into it this year, even Shawn dressed up! (He's the santa) That didn't last long though, after about 15 minutes he was too hot and took it off! We had so much fun this year, but are glad it's finally over! Onto the next holiday!!!

Pumpkin Carving

This year we only carved one pumpkin...thank goodness! This tradition is a love hate relationship! I hate cleaning them out, but I love carving them, and the boys always look so forward to it. This year Riley chose to do a joker face. It turned out pretty cool, even though I never got a picture of it with the lights out, so it's hard to even tell what it was! But it didn't really matter anyway, becuase it was moldy and rotten the next day, and didn't quite make it to halloween. Oh well, it was fun anyway!
