Car Wash

Rett and I try to make it a habit of going through the car wash but he still just cant get used to it.  I had comforters with me today, but he still got upset with all the noise.

Pretty soon he will be trying to figure out how it all works instead of being afraid!

Arco Cousins

Rett had some cousins over on office day while grandpa and grandma were at the hospital.  What a treat!

These are Mark and Paige’s kids, Paxton and Sicily.  They were so good.  They reminded me of our kids when they were little, just quiet and nice.  (well who am I kidding, they were better than our kids when they were little!!)  It was fun to have some playmates for Rett, he enjoyed them too.

New Shirts

Aunt Lain created some new tiger shirts for us.  It was like Christmas morning at our house when they arrived!

Lots of silly jumping pictures!  Lots of energy going on in our house!

Off Days

I (WE) LOVE our Fridays off!  It is such a blessing for us!  I have never had much of a hard time sending the kids to school, but this year I have had an eye opener realizing they are all there! (except Rett, thankfully)  I am glad I can have them all home on Fridays to make up for them all leaving me during the week!  We have had a few projects, fun and not fun on our fridays.  This Friday I got some good deep cleaning done in my kitchen.

I got a nice little fence put up for Mack that is attached to the chicken coop (we don’t currently have any chickens so its his dog house) so he can go in and out.  Well it wasn’t two minutes before he dug out of it!

It didn’t work for the puppy but somehow managed to cage a kid??  Justin crawled through the tiny back door (fit for chickens not boys) and couldn’t get back through.  I wasn’t about to cut down my hard work so I made him crawl back through.  Certainly if he could get in, he could get out!

A few scratches and torn shirt, but he is no longer in the chicken coop/dog pen.  Fun adventures at home!

November Pumpkin Carving?

Halloween snuck right up on us and we didn’t get the pumpkins carved!  We couldn’t let those expensive beauties go uncarved so we carved them a week late, bet late then never??

Make It.

Rett is starting to get a bigger vocabulary.  We are seeing that he has a teasing personality.  imagine that.  He is quite mischievous.  He asked me this morning to “make it” after he gathered all the lincoln logs.  How can I say no to that!

Im so glad I have my cute boy at home with me.

Justin’s Show and Tell

Back in the olden days I would have (and did) haul the puppy in to the school.  Im not so nice anymore, Justin had to settle for a picture of himself holding the puppy for show and tell.  He was happy with that.

Trick or Treating

It was freezing on Halloween of course, that is always kind of a downer to wear a coat on top of your costume, but I guess that’s just how its done in Idaho!

We got to bring Jace and Conor along, their parents were out of town.

No Rett you say, he fell asleep before we even got to the first house.  He had worked with Ryan earlier while I was at the school and missed his nap.  The mexicans were sure worried about his face.  I had put some “dirt and grease” on him and they thought he was pretty beat up!  Ryan couldn’t explain to them (in his farm spanish) that it was makeup and they just kept asking over and over about the babies face!

IMG_0863

We drove, Ryan wouldn’t let me get out at every house, I guess my kids are getting big enough to take themselves…..

Ryan’s eyeball is falling out!!!

The kids love trading and separating and even included weighing their candy this year.  Funny kids.

Each one got about 6 pounds of candy, yikes!

Happy Halloween!
