More Halloween pictures

Here is Lexi, Kamree, and Liv. We went to Nampa downtown for trick or treating. Yeah, we wont be doing that again! Too many people and not worth it. Luckily Ashley and Dani came with me because we had 4 kids and it was crazy. We waited in line FOREVER to see McGruff the dog and Lexi, Liv, and Kam all freaked out and wouldn't touch him. Kam literally started shaking. I only did it b/c I thought we'd get some neat safety stuff, but nope just 3 dumb pieces of candy!

Here are the girls before we went to knock the neighborhood. Lexi, aka Hannah Montana, was in her 3rd costume for the week. Yes, I finally gave in and let her be Hannah. She loved it and didn't want me to take off her 'hooker' makeup at the end of the night. Kam was happy to go trick or treating and was better at the doors than Lexi was. Shelby was a lady bug, but of course stayed in the stoller bundled up.




Here is our yearly photos of the pumpkin patch. Shelby kinda put a damper on us this year...we didnt get out and do much. Both times we went to the patch it ended up being cold and dark. But Lexi did get to do her bounce houses and the hay maze. She loved it

Trick or Treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat!!

We had our "Trunk or Treat" last night. We had so much fun dressing the girls up! Kamree was a pumpkin...she even let me paint her face. She loved every minute of it. Mike and I were laughing at her the whole time, it brought back some memories of when Lexi was that age. Lexi has wanted to be a variety of things so last night she was a fairy. We painted her nails sparkly and put glitter on her. She clammed up during the trunk or treat part and was too close to tears. Halloween has never been her thing. Today was her Halloween party at preschool. She went as a cowgirl. She was way cute and as you can tell in the pictures, a great poser! She wore my belt buckle and carried her hobby horse around. I was even able to find a pink squirt gun to add to the costume. Lexi really wanted to be Hannah Montana and I just can't bring myself to do it, so when we showed up to the trunk or treat and her friend was Hannah Montana she thought that was way neat. We still have one more night of costume fun coming up...we'll see what costumes we can come up with next! Im hoping Mike will pull out the Mullet again!

Shelby's Blessing

We had Shelby's Blessing this weekend. It went really well and we had lots of fun with family. Friday was spent all day at the mall looking for dresses for Jeremy's wedding. It was successful for my mom and the girls, but not me or Amber.
We loved having everyone here and Shelby looked so beautiful in her Blessing gown!

This weekend...more to come

Here is Amber and I with the kids. Crazy how our family is growing!


Sunday before church, Kam just came up to Mike and layed on him. It was soo cute. I love moments like this!

Here is my AWESOME bargain from the weekend! I got this way cute sling for $3 at a yard sale!! yay :) I was so excited I ran immediatly to Emily to show it off. Later that day at Kohls, I found my cute jeans that I've been wanting on the clearance rack, $8! Yipee...what a great day. (except the pants are a bit tight, we wont go there though :()

Gardening Skills

This year was our first garden and I do not advise planting one while being eight and nine months prego!! It was hard for me to keep up the weeding, then I had Shelby and REALLY let the garden go! It became a game to us to see how big everything would get. So when my dad was here this weekend I had him dig up my carrot I'd been waiting on and here it is! I'm sure it would win some kind of contest!! But this was my trial year, now I know what to plant, what not to, how much, and to really plant things three feet apart when it says to on the package...there is a reason! :)

some new pics

During dinner Shelby was crying (this is an every night thing!) so I look to Kamree and she's just sitting there with her ears covered. She's done this before in the car as well.

Yesterday I gave the girls cereal and ran upstairs to change Shelby's bum, when I got back down this is what I found. I swear this girl is a mess ALL THE TIME! She does the craziest things and is into EVERYTHING. I figured I should take a picture because after if was picked up I would laugh about it. Kam is so cute and fun right now, I love this age. But she's been a wild one lately, very demanding, independent, and stubburn. She knows now though that the blue chair is time out and its kinda cute to see her pout all the way to it, thats about the only thing she's obedient at. :)

Thanks to my wonderful friend Emily, I was able to can applesauce! It was extremly messy but fun to do. (Im still a bit bummed about my peaches not being as tasty as last years) Maybe next year I'll try to conquer Pears!(

Shelby is 2 months old now! I can't believe how fast its going by. I took her in for her shots and she was 10pds. I spoke with the dr. about her 'fussy personality' and he said she has some colic, it should go away in the next month or so. The last few nights have been ruff with her. I cant wait til shes sleeping more than 5 hrs. Im dragging most days, but was able to nap yesterday cuz Shelby slept ALL DAY after her shots. It was kinda nice.

Gummy Bear

Here is a video the girls love to watch on youtube. They ask for 'gummy bear'. Today Kam was watching it and the bear shakes his bum...Kam said "he need a diaper on". I just laughed. Sometimes I wish others could hear some of the stuff she says, it cracks me up!!
Im not sure how to post videos still, so hopefully this link will work!
