More Snow and Bath Time

Wednesday we got more snow, actually 10.5 inches and it was just beautiful!



Also this week, we gave a bath to Connor and Sydney together. Typically she is in a smaller tub within the bath, but she is sitting up so well that we gave it a try, she did great!

Connor making a house out of his letters.

And Sydney chewing on the letters! Sorry for the odd combination of posts but I wanted to get all caught up on what has been going on with our family!


Happy Halloween!

This was the first year we carved pumpkins with Connor. At first he was not very excited so taking a picture of him was not something he was happy with.

Auntie Shannon tried to help!

Once daddy and Connor started carving it was a lot more fun and someone got a lot happier!

The finished product!

Connor loves the show Jake and the Neverland Pirates so Connor wanted to be Jake the pirate this year. Greg calls Sydney "bug" so we decided she should be a ladybug!



Connor was very excited to go trick-or-treating. Greg said he said trick-or-treat at every door and said thank you after he got his candy, making mommy so proud! He got so much candy the handle of his bucket broke, so I would say it was a great Halloween!

Connor and his buddy Brayden, also a pirate, having a great time!

Sydney, Auntie Shannon, and I passed out candy while the boys were out, we had a good night.


Catch Up!

So I'll warn you ahead of time this is a long post because I was way behind on posts and it covers all sorts of things!

Sydney is growing by leaps and bounds, too fast for my liking but unfortunately I don't think I can do anything about it.

Sydney is sitting in Connor's high chair and Connor is in his booster seat, although when Sydney isn't in it he still likes to sit there.

Since she is crawling she doesn't sit well for her monthly pictures so I think from here on out you'll be getting action shots!

Silly Connor, plus he loves getting his picture taken!

We have started solid foods and she hasn't liked much thus far. She finally like sweet potatoes so I had to capture her enjoying something!

She is starting to pull herself up on things, including Cam (her favorite), and he is so good with her!


Tulo cut his paw on lawn edging last week so I had to take a picture of him all loopy after Greg fixed him all up!

She loves her Cam!

So proud of herself!

She too is starting to love the camera so the moment I get it out she starts crawling towards it, at least she smiles for her pictures!

Fall Fun

It is officially fall but the more you look at this post you will think it is winter!

Over the weekend we were raking leaves and enjoying a very nice day!

Even wearing sleeveless!


Connor even went topless!

Days later we got snow again! The slide is even more fun in the snow! The weather in Colorado changes daily and I love it!



My Birthday

I turned 32 this year and it was a great birthday! I have two beautiful children, a wonderful husband, three fun doggies, health, and happiness.....plus I got snow on my birthday!

Connor wearing my boots!

My sister and brother-in-law were away for the weekend so we were watching their dog Captain and this was his first snowfall, he loved it!



Connor loves the snow and shoveling it even more!

Me with my sweet kiddos.

Greg made me my favorite cake, never that pretty but oh so yummy!
