Happy Halloween

Trick or Treat.

Can I have some candy, please???

Wickedly Witchy Sydney strikes a pose.

Miss Laurena "Clown" Beana strikes her own pose.

Aren't they cute? I love Hot Chili Pepper Wyatt.

Well, it's all over. Now we set our sites on Christmas. Anybody want some candy??

Boo at the Zoo

We went to the zoo on Saturday. It was the perfect day with beautiful weather. We always enjoy a day at the zoo. Here are some pics.

Trunk or Treat

It is tradition to have a trunk or treat at church and the kids look forward to it every year. It's just one more opportunity for them to bring home gobs of candy. Here they are in there costumes. Aren't they cute!

Meet our newest member of the family.

Little Red Riding Hood is the name of the day. I don't think it will stick. I think she deserves a better name than that. This is one of Sydney's birthday presents and definitely her favorite. She loves her! I was skeptical about keeping this little creature in my home, but she is definitely growing on me. Right now she is running crazily around in her new home. I think she likes her new setup. I like it, too. Now that she is all settled in, I am feeling much better about keeping her. Although, I knew I didn't have much choice when I mention to Sydney that we may not be able to keep her. Sydney proceeded to lift up her guinea pig, look her in the eyes and cry "I will not let them take you from me." It was quite pitiful. She loves her new pet and she would hold her and pet her all day long, if she could.

The Painted House

We painted our house. I think it looks much better. Here is the before picture from our only snowfall last winter (Feb 2007):

And here is the after picture (Oct 2007):

What do you think??

Wyatt is 3 months old!!!

Isn't he cute? That's not really a question. I know he's cute! He is so sweet and adorable, especially when he smiles. He loves to watch his sisters dance around the room. He's stubborn and he'll let you know when he is mad, which, I'm sure is all in the genes. I sure do love him!

Happy Birthday Miss Sydney!!!

Sydney turned 5 years old yesterday. My, how time flies. She was just a baby and now she is a beautiful, sweet, kind little girl who is mommies BIGGEST helper. We are so proud and lucky to have Miss Sydney as our daughter.

She had a wonderful birthday. Thank you to everyone who made Sydney's birthday so special. She is a very lucky girl!

Here are some photos from her Glamourous Birthday Party:

Sydney, Lauren and Wyatt

Thank you Aunt Pat for our Grow-A-Heads. They are loved. Lauren even fixes their hair, sometimes. Here they are after their first hair cut.

And finally...a tutti ta, a tutti ta, a tutti ta ta. Sydney learned this new song in preschool today. I thought it was darn cute, but, of course, I am her mother.
