A Funny.

Last night, Mike and I took the kids to the doc to find out what their crazy rash is all about. While I was checking in, Connor walked up to a 7 or 8 year old boy and said, "Have you seen my mommy? She is pretty cute. This is my daddy, this is my sister, we are best friends." Too funny. I love this new age of talking in full sentences that we can understand!

Crafty Gifts

 Knitted Flowers

Taylor's first doll: Raggedy Ann

Taylor has been spoiled recently with homemade gifts. Taylor's Great Grandma Theresa made her some headbands and knitted flowers to wear :D Raggedy Ann was homemade by Great Grandma Sundberg and Great Aunt Anna. Thank you, she loves them and so do we. It is so special to receive things like this in the mail - your love shines through!

A tired, yet happy family at the end of the day!

For my birthday, we decided to spend the day at Disneyland. It is a whole different ball game with kiddos. I love fast and crazy rides, but it was even better to see Connor and Taylor's eyes light up to all the colors, sounds, characters and rides...It was the best way to celebrate a birthday!  After 9.5 hours in the park, we were one tired, yet happy family!

Heat Wave equals...

the introduction of popsicles.

Tunnel.

 

Connor loves to pretend his blanket makes a tunnel. We frequently hide under the blanket, our tunnel, to sing songs. Today he wanted to play "tunnel" with his sister. I wish I had this on video, but it was fun to snap a few shots as they were having so much fun.

One tired little piggy

Halloween was sure a lot of fun this year. The whole month was excitement for Connor as we decorated together, did halloween crafts, went shopping for costumes, to a halloween partay, carved a pumpkin and did his very first trick or treating. Connor was determined to be a piggy from the start. He loves Hamm from Toy Story, not sure if this is where he got the idea, but he came up with it on his own as there was no piggy costumes in stores. I finally ordered it online...once it came in the mail, I barely could get it off him to change a diaper. Tay on the other hand was a peacock bc mommy saw it at the store and love love loved it. 

Trick or Treating was awesome...I have never seen Connor happier about anything in his whole life. We told stories about trick or treating over dinner and then headed out the door. He totally got it! Mike and I just stood from the street as he tackled all the other kids and stairs to get some candy. It was awesome to watch him be so brave and have so much fun. Our neighborhood is awesome for trick or treating...real size candy, glow sticks, goody bags, playdoh, drinks and goodies for adults...I was impressed!

Hope everyone else had a fun and safe Halloween!
