ABC's and DIZZIES!

video

Thats my little smarty pants! She will beg us to do this with her all day and if you say yes she does her happy dance! This girl LOVES to learn! Shes got pretty much all of her ABC's, numbers and colors and shapes down it is amazing!!

She also is still quite the dare devil! She loves to get tossed up and spun... but once you start she never wants to stop! I forgot to add these to my earlier post!
**No babies were injured in the making of this video!! Also please ignore my comfy Sunday clothes!

Its official...

... its winter. I am not a huge fan of cold and snow! I like the kind of cold and snow that disappears the same day.. luckily living in CO that is usually the case but on mornings where I wake up and find 6 inches and its still coming I have a hard time finding the fun in that. Well until I see my kids having a blast in the snow.. it makes it almost worth it!! ALMOST LOL!
So these pics of Malia are to funny.. she was wearing this Santa had and dragging around this blanket it was so cute, so I thought hey lets get some pics!! She sat right down and was saying a prayer.. maybe for Christmas gifts?? Then she was playing with Maddie it was lots of fun!






I often find Malia with Rich's ties.. she loves them, she will run into our room and come back with a tie around her neck.. I might have to do a shoot with his shoes and ties rather than my shoes and jewels, cracks me up!

After church we went right outside to play in the snow, Maddie had been begging Rich all throughout our conference to help her make a snow man so they did! He cheats and uses a shovel.. no rolling for us!
She was pretty proud of hers, though the head kept coming off!
Kaden had to keep protecting his from flying snow balls from dad!
And then the snow ball fight broke out!




Maddie decided to feast on some fresh snow... we dont have any pets so I said go ahead even though it really grosses me out!
K shes cute huh! I could just eat her up!

YUM!
Snow angel
After a cold day of playing we ate a delish chicken pot pie.. I make the BEST pot pie hehehe! Actually I might have to head to the kitchen for 2nds!

Halloween

We had a fun fun Halloween, being on a Saturday we decided to hold off our pumpkin carving until Saturday to help pass the time.. I knew the kids would go nuts waiting for it to be time! Its so nice when they get to an age where you dont have to de-gut all of the pumpkins! Sadly a few of our pumpkins got icky from the snow even though I had brought them in the night after our storm came.. Owell less clean up for me!! Malia wasnt sure what to think of the pumpkins especially after dad drew a scary face! So then on the other side he drew a nice face and she told him that meaning that one.. instead of the scary one! So funny!

Maddie was pretty grossed out with her guts but was a big girl and dug it all out and then even carved out her face, she did a great job! Kaden also did his all by himself even the top.. kinda sad to not have to help but like I said pretty dang nice too!!




Working hard!

Scary side.. she really didnt like that!

She was ok with that happy side!

even decided it was worthy of a kiss


Malia kept telling them ewww

Finally when it came time to get ready, and thankfully we ended up having a pretty decent night weather wise, I start making everyone up! Kinda was in a flurry since I had to do all 3 of them with makeup! I could not believe how well Malia did sitting through her makeup she was a trooper and was even laughing.. the pictures look like she was tortured but she was really loving it I promise! And I think they all turned out pretty dang cute.. or cool!

I promise I am not squishing this baby!

This was her first look at herself.. she took about 1 minute of checking herself out and then she started smiling at herself like OO YA!! She loved it!

How cute is she I mean for real!


Heres my crew, Malia was freaked by the fog machine.

K for real I have some cute kids!


Ya shes a stunner SO CUTE!!

She obviously got over the fog.. Kaden was making her laugh for me!





Miss Maddie was the cutest Pirate ever!!

We even knocked out some teeth to make it more realistic. lol

The Im ready for candy dance




Kaden my boy you look good with eyeliner!! He was Trey Cool for Green Day we dressed him up and did his makeup and I realized he actually looked like someone so I googled rock bands until I found the right one LOL kids at school even recognized who he was! HAHA




Rich was a gorilla so he could scare some kids it was so funny! Malia wasnt to found of it at first!




On our way! Malia again did awesome she got into it and caught on pretty quick.. the best part for her were the houses with dogs! She got really good at saying trick or TREAT! And of course she was so cute that people were giving her extra candy! Same with Maddie!




Her first house.. then it clicked CANDY!!

All done and ready to eat! She was so happy she pee'd her pants while she was sitting there.. for real.. I wasnt so happy to find that!

But man is she cute

Candy high

Maddie spent most the night out with Rich scaring our trick or treaters.. so fun!! And then I put Malia to bed!

We let Kaden host a party since they are getting a little to old to be out, we did let them trick or treat but they came back after about 45 minutes.. WHAT!! So then they hung out down stairs until 10 when I called it a night! They had lots of fun though!

They were tasting Harry Potter Jelly beans and we kept hearing OOOO EWWWW GROSS





Here is 1 example of how Rich scared some kids.. he tried not to scare the smaller kids.. he would sit with the bucket of candy with his hand moving like a fake one and people would act pretty cautious.. OR the dumb boy teeners would act like they didnt care..but then still jump LOL!! We sure had a lot of fun making fun of them! The teener girls would just sit there and try to get the other one to go first it was pretty funny!
