Silly girl...

Bailey was so funny the other day. She is becoming so independent and she wanted to get dressed by herself. She had to be the one to pick out her outfit for the day. So I let her with the idea that if we were going to go anywhere I would just change her. Well, after about 10 minutes she came walking out of her room with the look that definitely said, "Look at me, I did this all by myself, and I love it!" Need I mention the extra little hip in her giddyup.:) The top is actually a dress that she has obviously outgrown and yes, it is on backwards as are her...I mean...MY shoes! She came right up to me and then she started prancing around while saying "I so cute! I so cute! I so cute!" She is a little ball of fire, constantly keeping us on our feet, never ceasing to amaze us and we love her.

My boy is growing up...

So I was going through Jayden's folder the other day when he came home from school and I was looking at one of his homework pages and Jayden gives me this "uh oh" look and says "Mom don't look on the back!" His smile made me even more curious. So I turned it over and this is what I found.

I was relieved to find out that Amanda was a high school girl that came with a group of kids to do the assembly for Red Ribbon Week. Jayden had come home saying that he had fallen in love with one of the girls. I can't believe he is already talking let alone thinking about that. At least it's just a crush!:)

Halloween!!

Okay so I had every intention of getting these posted right away, but once again I have fallen behind. Halloween was pretty fun this year. The kids have been so excited about it and have been counting the days. It was kind of nice that they didn't have school so we didn't feel like we were rushed to get anywhere or do anything. We had a lot of fun and the weather was perfect, making it even more enjoyable. We didn't do a lot of trick or treating and I was kind of glad because it seems like I am the one who ends up eating all their candy. I have another picture we took of Chris and I as well, I will have to post that one later. We went with a couple of friends. They were Edward and Bella. We were Alice and Jasper. Yes we were Twilight characters and we had a fun time!

Earlier on in the week we had a playgroup and afterwards Bailey was so tired and this is how I found her...fast asleep on the coffee table!



Jayden was Superman and all day I caught him flexing in the mirror. It was too funny! He also kept making comments like "I'll just 'fly' down the stairs and get that!" He loved it!



Halle was a "Bratz girl". People would ask her what she was and she would answer, "I'm a brat!" They'd have to ask her again, thinking they had misunderstood. We all got a good laugh out of it.



Bailey was Cinderella. Ever since we got this for her, we had a hard time getting it off of her. She LoVeD it!! I wanted to get a cape for her because that is just the way she is...loves to be cute, but she's got to give it a little something extra. She definitely keeps us laughing. She is our little fire ball for sure. Don't let the sweet smile fool you! :)



Maddy was a cheerleader. She was a good sport while everyone went about their way getting all dressed up and running around trying to get all of the visiting done. She let people oooh and aaah at her and I think she had a pretty good time!:)



All of our kids together. I'm suprised they were all looking at the camera at the same time. It's a good thing we took their pictures BEFORE they loaded themselves with all that sugar! They were wired until midnight.
