Happenings

Andrew spent 4 days in the hospital because he had a bleeding ulcer. The kids are out of school for the next 2 weeks. Hopefully we survive. Night likes to climb the Christmas tree and also knock off the ornaments to play with.

Reading and sleeping

Reading his Sonic book.

He fell asleep one the floor.

Look what I did

I was bad and cut my hair


Mommy fixed my hair.

Happy Birthday

We celebrated her birthday today with family. At Enrichment night a couple of weeks ago we had an service auction and I won a cake, which you can see is wonderfully done.

blowing out the candles. I will be 5 on Thursday.

Presents

Strawberry Shortcake cake.

Once again

Happy Veteran's Day. R is doing good at school. He is starting to talk more and we are starting to understand some of what he says. L will be turning 5 next week. Time sure does fly. P is growing so fast. He doesn't like to drink milk out of his sippy cup but he will drink juice out of it. Andrew is training to be a school bus driver. I am still looking for work..so far nothing.

He loves the camera

Halloween

We had a combined party for all the October birthdays. He didn't like the cake and only got his fingers in the frosting. Then he sat on mom and ate dad's ice cream

He likes to stick out his tongue

What a cute cow


Ninja all the way


Clowns are cool

Carving pumpkins

Having fun with pumpkin guts

1st hair cut

My printer and computer decided it was time to start talking to each other again. So weird. We decided he looked like a girl and needed a hair cut he didnt even cry.

He doesn't like to sit down in the bathtub since he went in the swimming pool
- is the biggest momma's boy
- likes soda
- isn't crawling yet
- is slowly getting better at drinking out of his sippy cup
- loves being outside
- loves the goats
- has 3 teeth and working on the fourth

Growing so fast

Our new van 2004 pontiac montana

Look at me

I know that I am cute.

See my two teeth.

I like to JUMP!

Aunt Lydia let us borrow her exersaucer and this is what he loves to do in it.

1st day of School

She was being silly. Really excited to go to school.

This was actually the 2nd day of school. I couldn't find the camera on the 1st day of school.

Harvest Time

We just harvested 17 carrots from our garden.

Update

School starts next week on the 20th. I am so ready for school to start. The kids seem excited to go back. Our van died again. This time it is something to do with the timing belt. Hopefully not too expensive. We are watching the Signing Time videos and are learning a lot of sign language. They are fun and informative videos. If you are interested in sign or want to teach your kids these videos are great. Our cat Night still likes to attack our feet. We also want to breed Jumper but we havent found another Nubian Buck to breed her with. We are partial to nubians, I like their ears. The kids are all growing up so fast before I know it I will have teenagers.

Cool..
