Fall Festival

Happy Fall! Our church did the Fall Festival a night early to avoid a mess on Sunday morning... oh boy there were sooo many people! Ready to go... will I ever get a photo of all three looking and smiling?

The games are always a hit!

Note the ear protectors...a band was playing in the parking lot and he never took them off.

Mommy and son enjoying a "fudge puppy"... this is bliss on a stick... fried dough, dipped in fudge and rolled in treats like fruity pebbles, nuts, coconut.... oh my I have 366 days to wait for another!!!

Posing has become a chore...that they should know by now is coming!

OK, OK GO!!!!!!!! A fun evening and wonderful outreach to the community!

Muscle Man

Today was the Fall Festival at preschool. Oh boy he was so excited. Mommy was a little under the weather so daddy took him to preschool and stayed for the fun. He was so excited to tell me all about it this afternoon. Muscle Man melts my heart! That smile...

This was what he told me was his favorite... I think someone left out the water!

The bowling was his favorite last year!

Once again they did an awesome job making preschool so much fun!

Pumpkin Patch....again :)

Today was a special day for him. His class visited a pumpkin patch... out on the soccer field!! Now that's a perfect field trip for me!!!! It was a great morning. They played games, ate a snack and picked the perfect pumpkin. The sweetest punkin out there!
So handsome!

Pumpkin Racing

Look mom! I found it!

Sweeter than pumpkin pie!!!

3 Months Old!!!!!!!

Look at how she has gown in one month! Today she weighed 17lbs.! Sept. 24th - 2 months

October 24th - 3 months

She continues to bless our lives daily! It seems as if she has always been a part of our family! Bath time is her favorite part of the day... she also loves to see someone come in her room to get her. She is a "talker" too... our conversations bring tears to my eyes. She had "chosen" a blanket and wants the paci only to help her fall alseep... once I lay her down she spits it out... very cute! I think sometime soon we will try a spoon!

Spirit Week

This week was spirit week at her school! Here she is showing good Knight spirit! School colors day... navy, gold & white.

Goldilocks for fairy tale day... thanks Granny for the costume!

Western Day

College Day - Go Pirates!

More to come after the Homecoming game tonight. She is so excited about the "teenage girl" getting a princess crown!

Sweet Sibling Love

This melted my heart this morning. You can just see how much he loves her!

Big Helpers

The transition to 3 children has been smooth because of the help the older 2 are... here is proof! Focus
He is helping her learn to hold things. She's sort of got the grasp but forgets quickly and drops.

She was up late Friday and really enjoyed watching hockey with us!

We sat her swing upright for a bit and they had a blast showing her "her" toys!

Happy, Healthy children are such a wonderous blessing!

Atlantic Beach Fall 2009

Our fall beach trip was later and shorter this year but tons of fun! We returned to Atlantic Beach last Friday to Monday. Saturday was a summer like day and the other were good for October. The children got one more swim in the ocean and pool. On the way through Jacksonville daddy talks to the children about the trees planted in memory of the victims of the Beirut bombing. This trip we stopped by the memorial. Look at him holding the Marine statue's hand... he was so proud!

Her first experienc at the beach... not too crazy about the breeze in her face!

Sweet or Sassy?

The beach is our favorite place away from home!

AWESOME!!

She LOVED looking at everything... especially the huge tank.

Our little climber... so thankful this developed later in life for her.

NC Aquarium

Playing Wii for the first time with Aunt Anne Marie.

The water slide is always fun... but should daddy have really gone down with both of them at once? They were saying "bad idea bathing suits" as they came down.

Angel!

The boys love to wrestle...anywhere works!

Beauty!

The view from the condo was breath taking... especially when I saw my children in a pool in mid October! They promised it wasn't too cold.

Her favorite part of a present.. the ribbon!

Sweetie!

Getting ready for Lil' sis' first night away from home. She did so well!

We had a blast!
