September summed up!

Here is what we squeezed in between all the soccer in September!


Brinley is such a good big sister to Marlee. She is always playing with her and helping he take care of her. Brinley loves Marlee, and Marlee LOVES her big sister! She gets excited every time she sees her :) It makes me so happy... just hope it lasts forever!


The kids usually make organized messes when they are playing together. They made this color organized staircase while I was trying to shower one day :) I love it when they work together... but didn't love when they pushed it all to the bottom and we had one giant mess to clean up!



After being gone to NYC and University of Pennsylvania for a week, Ryan brought home gifts for the kids. Casen LOVES the white truck and green john deer trailer that he got, and sleep with it every night :)


Marlee was pretty excited about her gift too. This little things mouth moves and makes sounds, pretty funny! Brinley got a microphone and a fun new coloring book, but I never grabbed a picture.


I felt like making breakfast one morning and so decided to have a couple friends over. The kids enjoyed eating outside in the nice weather!


Brinley grabbed a shot of us Mommies, good job Brin :)


Marlee is now 7 months old! Crazy! Brinley is making her smile in all of these :)






WAY back in June, Jess, Michelle and I tried to plan a girls night and have bee trying ever since! We finally made it happen in September and it was so fun! They are both amazing gals and I loved chatting with them all night! Hopefully it doesn't take 3 months to plan our next night out!


Casen organized hi toys.. quads, motocycles, tractors, cars, big cars, monster trucks... I love it when he does this stuff. Cracks me up! I just thought boys pushed their cars around and made engine noises?


Casen loves tomatoes, I think it's so cute when he eats them like apples!


Green smoothies are a family favorite, I love how colorful they look before I blend them up. The beats gave this one a nice purple color!


We ordered a 20 lb box of peaches fresh from Utah and it was amazing! Our little family went through 15 lbs of peaches in a week! We just couldn't stop eating them :) Then I boiled the rest, Brinley peeled ALL of them for me (go Brin!), and then we sliced them up to save for smoothies! Worth every penny!





Beautiful grasshopper we found in the backyard. My kids love this kind of stuff.

This is Brinley posing on picture day! She was so excited, but apparently something happened before the picture and now we have $40 worth of pictures where Brinley has a sad, pathetic look on her face! Lesson learned - don't waste a lot of money on school pics! It was my first kid's first pics, I couldn't resist... but now, I know!


Casen has started having playdates, and I am loving that he is old enough to do this now! Tre and him have a lot of fun together!


We had a full week of rain in September and it was wonderful!


Brinley insisted on my doing pig tails in Marlee's hair one day, and I thought it actually turned out pretty cute :)
