Random Sampler

Since it's been a while since my last post and a lot has happened, I am just going to give you a few cute pictures.
Austin is just over 5 months now and his personality is really starting to show. As you can see in the picture above he is jealous of my teeth and trying to take them. Since that didn't work, he decided he would grow his own. His first tooth popped up just today.
Autumn, Austin and Elizabeth at Thanksgiving with the Lafferre's. Autumn is oldest, born on May 5, Elizabeth next born on June 29 and Austin came just 24.5 hours later on June 30.

Ethan playing Wii at the Higginbotham Thanksgiving. He really got into that skateboard game.

Enzo, Isaiah and Megan having a good time together.

Austin tried solid foods for the first time the other day, yum!

Autumn Leaves

We have this beautiful tree in our backyard that just dumped a bunch of leaves all over the ground. Ethan was so excited to rake them up but I said, no way, lets get some pictures in them first. Three weeks later we finally got some pics...











Happy Halloween

We're off to Neverland!
Happy 1st Halloween Austin! Doesn't he look thrilled? At first glance you may think that he is dressed like a lion, but actually he is a lost boy from Peter Pan, dressed like a lion. As you all know, I like to have family themes for Halloween and this year, inspired by Megan's sudden love of Tinkerbell, we were all characters from Peter Pan.

Thank you Jennifer for letting us use Kaelyn's Tinkerbell costume. Megan was so happy to wear it.
Here is my home-made version of Peter Pan... I did sew the hat myself.. thank you.

Not pictured is Joel and myself. I was Wendy and Joel was Captain Hook. We had lots of fun at out Ward Harvest Festival and then took the kids trick-or-treating around the block in our neighborhood.

I made 72 cupcakes in less than a week this Halloween season. For the school bake sale, Ethan's class and then the Ward cupcake walk. I decided to get a little more creative this year and this is what I came up with.
