Attack of the “kids”

I would be referring to the big kids here…..Captain and Daddy! They like to play as much as the others do and it makes my heart happy!

 

Rylie and the Beast!

This is Beast....

 

She is vicious looking huh?!?!? And yes Beast is a she, the kids named her before knowing that and didn't want to change it.

 

 

She has quite the personality and most everyone who meets her loves her! But probably no one quite as much at Rylie! She oohs and ahhs over her little Beasty kitty aka her baby!

 

 

Halloween 2014

So I know what your thinking???

It’s December! Christmas not Halloween!!!

Yes I know, however, between life being busy and having trouble uploading pics on here I haven’t blogged much lately so now I am playing catch up.And we will start with halloween!

First we had school parties!

And we can’t forget that this was a special halloween because it was Luke’s very 1st one ever!

 

The best pic I could get of the entire crew (surprise....a certain little 2 year old wasn't cooperating!)

 

Rylie left us after this, she went with some friends. Her friends were Dorothy and the Tin man and she was the prettiest scarecrow that I've ever seen. Love her costume so much!

 



My boys.....Batman and Robin! Evan loves Robin....he kept saying "i'm the sidekick, Robin"

which makes since because he loves being Owen's sidekick....he adores his big brother!

 

This girl was so indecisive but finally decided to be a monster high doll, the hat is my favorite part of her costume!

 

This girl! I did not buy her a costume because I knew she wouldn't wear one so we borrowed from a friend. She wore it a few times for a few minutes for a few pictures.....and that was good enough for me!

 

And my sweet sweet baby boy...not your traditional 1st Halloween costume but he made such a perfect biker baby that I couldn't resist. And I could dress up with him! We shaved his goatee shortly after this because slobber and marker do not mix!

 

We went to our friends Paul and Debbies house. It was cold cold cold so while the dad's took out the bigger kids we stayed in with the littles! No Ry in this pic but it's a sweet picture!

 

They love being with their friends!

 

And since it was October when my sweet baby turned 5 months I had taken a few Halloween themed pics......

 

So here's the deal.....I got my blog cooperating again so I am going to blog and post as much as I can to catch up before Christmas (which is in 1 week) so stay tuned to hopefully quite a few post this week!

Rylie's new do!

 Rylie looking absolutely gorgeous with her highlights!

I'm thinking it may be time to lock her in the house, she is growing up way way too fast!

Polar Express 2014

 So Polar Express was a success this year......we started out by going for a train ride in Baldwin City.

The kids!

 She wasn't too sure at first and didn't want to get on the train but once we were there she was okay!

The boys watching the scenery! 

Luke snoozing.....absolutely adorable! 

Santa and the Mrs. were on the back car and we got to go visit! 

Guess who woke up? 

Yeah she was comfortable now and wanted to hang from the handles over and over again!

We went home had beef stew, opened jammies and ornaments from Grammy and watched polar express, of course!

 

November leftovers!

If you mustache? yes he is the cutest little chub you ever did see!

Another football season in the books!

This girl.....she is wearing Luke's shirt (yes it is a 12 month shirt) and Katelin's jeans!

Such. a. good. big. bro.

Fun in a basket!

Little itty bitty tiny pigtails that she won't leave in.....but they were cute for 30 seconds!

Big boy riding in the cart!

The night before having new carpet installed....had to eat in the living room because the majority of our belongings were in the kitchen!

Snuggling our friend Saylor!

1/2 a year went by so fast....

this little man has stolen my heart!

I'm going to miss this when he's all grown up!

My sweet Katy Rae!

Rolls upon rolls upon rolls....

and I love every last one of them. 6 month checkup.....24lbs (above 100% on growth charts)! What can I say..... he is well above average ;)

She loves daddy's power tools and he has taught her how to use them!

Quick family pic at my Grandma's house on Thanksgiving....so much to be grateful for!

Luke isn't too sure about this food, he will just stick to his milk for now!
