All Caught Up

Wow...I think I am actually all caught up on my blog posts. I was so far behind. We have been so busy.

Halloween cont....

We went trick-or-treating with a ton of our neighbors...in these photos you can't even see our entire gang that went. Notice...no coats...it was so warm. I can't even remember another Halloween that was as warm or warmer than this. It was so unreal. This is right when we started out...on the street we live on.









Wait a minute...wasn't Madison Belle? And now she is wearing the princess outfit from her birthday??? Was there a phone booth on our route? No...she stepped on her Belle costume too many times and she was not happy that she couldn't run faster. This costume wasn't much shorter but she was happy after momma ran her home to change. Hmmmmm..maybe she wanted to go to some of the same houses again? :o) KIDS!!!! But, in this photo where she is wearing something different..it is dark now...the kids went full force from 5-7pm.

23 Weeks

These pumpkin slippers were Madison's when she was a baby...crazy that they fit Ethan.

Halloween at Dance Class - October 25th

Every year during the week before Halloween the children can wear their Halloween costumes (or dress up in whatever) to their dance class. They practice their Halloween dance for weeks. Here are a few pictures of Madison doing her Halloween dance.







22 Weeks


Ethan Started Solids - Cereal - October 19th

We had started Madison on cereal when she was 4 months but Ethan seemed content so we didn't start him at 4 months. He has been sleeping anywhere from 9-12 hours since he was 8 weeks. However, he woke up early on the 19th...really early and we decided it was time. He was 3 days away from being 5 months. His doctor had said he was fine without solids but if he starts waking than he probably needs something more. Wow...well he was ready. We couldn't shovel it in fast enough.

Here are pictures of him having rice cereal.


All ready to eat sitting nice in his bumbo.














More From The Little Farmer

As you can tell...it was hard finding the perfect pumpkins. Looking at these pictures...the fields look empty.






Our Visit to The Little Farmer - October 19th

As always we made our annual trip to The Little Farmer. I believe it takes about 45 minutes or so to get there. Well worth the trip.

Madison loves feeding the goats.

A cute picture of all of us. (This is our first picture together unless you count the one taken at church when Ethan was baptized.)

Our adorable children.


Momma & Maddie.


The perfect pumpkin for Milo (he actually ended up eating it the next day...why would a dog eat a pumpkin? But, we did find him eating it..and there was hardly anything left.)

Madison's Birthday Party - October 18th

Madison wanted a princess party and since she wanted to invite boys as well as girls she turned it into a fairytale party. The kids dressed in their favorite princess, prince, or knight costumes.
