Pumpkin Patch- Trip #2!

We headed back to the Pumpkin Patch with some friends and it was a little chilly and windy. They only let us do the swing and petting zoo at first... but by the end they opened up the slide and the kids LOVED it!

Tre, Kylie, Lexi, Brinley, Casen, Dresden, and Madison. Thanks for a fun trip!

Cupcakes!

We have the sweetest neighbors, they always bring treats for the kids. Our kids were really excited when they got Halloween cupcakes!

Somewhere along the way Casen destroyed his cupcake... and wasn't too happy about it.

Pumpkin Patch- Trip #1!

On Monday the 25th we headed down to the Pumpkin Patch with some friends. The kids had SO much fun going down the giant slide... over and over and over! It was a fun night to let the kiddos play and catch up with some friends!

Kayla and Brinley loving the swing!


This is Casen before the swing started... he laughed for about 30 seconds and then didn't love it so much. Mandi always tells me that Casen looks just like Koda did when he was little... I definitely think they could pass for brothers!

Casen just loves animals, he kept chasing them around and anytime he actually got to touch one he would yell "Got it!"

Courtesy of Mandi :) Brinley insisted in standing on this pumpkin and posing :)

Afterwardswe headed to the park and had pizza. All the kids had fun running around, it was fun to see all the cute little girls in their circle :)

23 weeks!

So I am actually over 26 weeks now... but ofcourse I am just now getting around to posting this picture. One day I will catch up! This is about my favorite stage of prenancy.... from 22-30 weeks. You look pregnant, you're no longer nauseated, you're not too uncomfortable yet... and you get to feel the baby mover a ton! Feeling the baby move has always been my favorite. It truly is a little miracle growing inside my and I love it. It has been fun more recently because Brinley and Casen have both been able to feel the baby move. Casen loves to hug my belly and talk to it. He will lay his head on my belly and say things like "Hi baby... uh hug?" and "Baby go night night." Or he will say "Tiss Baby" and the kiss my belly :) I am sure he doesn't quite understand what is going on, but he definitely knows there is a baby in there and he is excited! Brinley is still excited as ever... but wants her to hurry and come out!

Morning at the Park!

We were supposed to go to the Pumpkin Patch the week before Halloween... but we had to cancel cause of weather. So we decided to head to the park.

I love this picture... do you think someone wants to be just like their big sister?





I choose this park since it had padding under it... no sand, dirt, etc. It has rained the night before and a little that morning, so we definitely wanted to avoid muddy, wet kids! Didn't work so well...


"Watch this Mom!"

The JUMP

The LANDING :)


Well apparently when it rains mud from the hill behind the park gets washed down into the sidewalke by the playground... and ofcourse Casen found it... and got COVERED in mud! We had to strip him down and put Brinley's jacket on him.

The victim trying to sneak off and keep playing!


He thought he was pretty funny :)
