Fall Fun

Fall is my all time favorite season of the year! I love the cool crisp air and all the colorful leaves. I love the pumpkin patches, hay rides, apple picking, candy apples, and the apple pies. Oh and of course Halloween and all the festivities! A couple days ago Evan and I headed out to the front yard to rake all the leave into a big pile so he could jump in them.. After we got out there he maybe helped for about a minute or so, then he found a big tree to go climb. He climbed way up and then was afraid to climb down. After about 15 minutes of giving him step by step directions he made it down :) Then he wanted to turn around and go back up lol.. Elaina sat in her stroller for most of the time chewing on her hands and smiling away! (she is getting 2 teeth by the way)

Wordless Wednesday

1 year ago today...

I found out I was pregnant with baby #2!! Elaina Marie :) It's crazy how fast this year went by..

So CUTE.. It's SCARY

Elaina had about a weeks worth of Halloween outfits that we had bought, and some that were given as gifts.. Here is a couple of them .. I did not gets pics of them all, because before I could take a pics she had spit up all over them.. Evan had a few Halloween shirts too.. but he has not been letting me take pics of him lately...

Is it time for Trick or Treating??

I think I heard Evan ask that about 50 times on Halloween! He was so anxious to get out and go Trick-or-Treating as I know all kids are. We were invited to a Halloween block party that started at about 4:30. We brought some YUMMY dirt cake I had made earlier and it was delicious! We headed out for trick or treating around 6:30. My mom, Kathy(Dave's mom), my brother Chris and his girlfriend Courtney all joined us! We walked around the same big loop that I trick or treated in every year when I was little.. I love our neighborhood! He had fun running from one house to another.. Lainey was great.. She slept for most of it.. Evan is already picking out his costume for next year! :) He asked tonight if we could go trick or treating again tomorrow haha.. These pics are not in order at all.. and I don't feel like moving them around ;)

Lainey-Bug

I kept trying to get a pic with him.and he was not having it! . I finally told him no candy until he took a picture with me..lol
