I've been caught...

Uh-oh my mom found me raiding her closet and trying on her shoes!!! I find it funny that Mara will wear everyone's shoes but her own. Payden has a pair of sponge bob slippers that are way to big for him and she walks around in them. I can't believe that just a couple of months ago she wasn't even walking....my baby is growing up way too fast!!!

A Tea Party for Stella

Kristen called me and asked if I could help put a baby shower/tea party together for Kira. She has this great idea to make it a tea party where everyone could dress up and our little girls could all be involved. We decorated with various tea cups and tea sets. I had some tissue paper flowers from Mara's birthday that we used also. It turned out great and was a lot of fun to see all of the cute things that she got for the baby. I am so blessed to have Kira as my best friend and was more than happy to help her sister out!!!

Leaves are falling all around...

One of our families favorite fall traditions is: raking the leaves together, making a huge pile with those leaves, and then jumping in the leaves. Mara loved picking them up one by one and helping put them in the trash bags. However, she wasn't much into being sat in the leaves with her brother and sister throwing them around. We have raked and cleaned up around 7 big bags of leaves already a big accomplishment for 3 small kids.

Happy Fall Days to all our friends and family:)!!!

Trick-or-Treat

As always, we had a fun and exciting Halloween week filled with lots of parties and enough candy to last till next Halloween. The kids enjoyed being around their cousins and seeing their costumes. We had a total of: 3 army guys, 1 candycorn witch, 1 Leopard, 2 fairies, 1 purple dinosaur, and 1 little chick. Our week consisted of: 1 ward dinner, 2 school parties, 3 trunk-or-treats, and visiting 2 grandparents!!! We had a busy Halloween and were pooped by the end and went home Halloween night and were all in bed by 9pm. Which for all who know us this NEVER happens. We are hoping that next year is just as fun!!!

Happy 7th Birthday Paige!!!

Lil Mischievous Girl

Mara I have a feeling is going to be our mischievous child. She has mastered climbing onto the couch from our little trampoline and thinks that she is all that. She is an expert walker and just wanders around constantly. She loves to help mom unload the dishwasher and get into anything and everything. She has the funniest faces and has us constantly laughing at her. She is definantly keeping us on our toes and we love it.

Happy Birthday Mara!!!

I can't believe that you are "1" already!!!
