Our little Tiger!

MESSY BOY!!

This guy loves to feed himself!!  And unfortunately yogurt and pudding are two of his favorites!!

This guy also immediately goes to the bath tub after dinner!!!!

Our Halloween in Pictures---LOTS of pictures!!

Well, needless to say, we had a very fun Halloween!  It all started on Friday with the Pumpkin Party at school!  Brooklyn was very excited for this!  She dressed up as a Princess for her school party!

 Brooklyn got lots of great treats from her friends at school!  Including a witches hat which she tried on before going to church on Sunday morning!

 She was actually dancing around the kitchen with it on...here she is 'striking a pose'.....

 Jamison was good ol M-ELMO!  He is loving Elmo these days!  And with this guy running around we needed a very practical costume! 

 On Halloween evening Brooklyn decided on a costume change, and went as a fairy/flower.  She was beautiful!!!  Her little sister joined in the festivities as well as a little ballerina!  What two cute little girls!!!

 This little girl just makes me smile!!

 Brooklyn always wants to take pictures...here she got momma and two of her little ones!

 On Halloween night instead of trick or treating we went to the church where the kids go to daycare and went to their Fall Festival.  We had a great time with food, fun, games, treats, chasing Jamison, balloons, and even mommy and daddy won a gift card!!!  YIPEE!!  This was a great, safe, way to celebrate Halloween!

Here is the back of Brooklyn's costume as she was standing in line for a game.

 Our little fairy with Snoopy!

 This picture CRACKS ME UP!!!  Its our little Linus!!!  Oh if he just had his blanket with him it would have been PER-FECT!!

 Raegan enjoyed the evening (for the most part) from her view in the stroller.  This girl LOVES her fingers!

 The fairy in candyland!

 Elmo tearing apart candyland!!

 Our little fairy doing a "cake walk" which was actuall a treat walk!  And as she was doing this I looked at her and realized was a big girl she is becoming!!! 

 This little guy just wanted to run around and play with the balloons!!

This is one of Brooklyn's teachers, Ms.Maureen. 

I really need to get pictures of the kids with all of their teachers!  I need a special post just on our teachers and daycare!!  We LOVE THEM!!!

What a great Halloween!  No one was spooked!   And no one was tricked!!  Just a fun day of dressing up, games, and treats!!

TU!! TU!! TU!! TU!!

What a win this week for the Golden Hurricane!  Daddy got to take a trip with the team to NOTRE DAME!! And better yet, THEY WON!!! 28-27!

They got to visit briefly the College Football Hall of Fame.

Touchdown Jesus at night...

And during the day...

What a great win!!  The biggest win in school history!  And daddy was there with the team!  It was a "Great day to be a Hurricane!"

Good 'ol Brooklyn

Brooklyn got to bring the "story" from her class home recently.   The question was "If you lived on a farm and had a big barn, what would be inside....

Brooklyn's answer:  A cow, a pig, a dinosaur, and a big family!

So glad that she included her big family!!!  Not that I want to be in a barn, but glad that she thinks of us!!

A couple other funny things that Brooklyn has said recently...

1-She calls babysitters-babysinners.  I hope there isn't any irony in that!

2-She calls the copy machine the coffier, and that she needs a coffee of something instead of copy!  Make me laugh every time!

3-She continues to have atleast one, if not multiple boy friends as school.  However today when we got in the car she informed me that Landon didn't want her to be his girlfriend anymore, so he was not going to be her boyfriend any more either!  But Drew is still going to be her boyfriend!  Oh playground drama in the Busy Bee class!  (I told her not to worry about the breakup--boys aren't worth worrying about!)

As usual Brooklyn has continued to be a great big sister!  She says sweet things, gives sweet hugs, and is a great helper. But boy oh boy--she is a TAURUS as many people have reminded me!  One minute a ball of joy, next minute a tsanami of head strong terror!!!  We love her, but she sure does try us at times!

This little girl....

Is 3 months old!!!

Wow, three months old already!  Raegan is a smiley little girl who is talking (cooing) more and more all the time!  She is doing very good on the sleeping schedule and will sleep from 8:00pm-6:00am, with occasional wake ups..but otherwise doing GREAT!!!  She does really well at holding her head up, and is enjoying her bouncy chair, swing, and play gym these days!

I am SO glad that we have just survived the past three months!!  We have went through the good, the bad and the ugly that is for sure!  There have been times where we are all smiling and laughing, and times when we are all crying (all three kids and mom!).  We have had chicken nuggets and peanut butter and jelly numerous times as mom searched for a quick meal, and have cherished the few times when we were all able to sit around the dinner table.  We have missed Daddy when he was away, and put our arms out to reach for him when he was here.  We have had late nights and early mornings. We have changed many many diapers. And through everything, we survived!!  And I look forward to every day that is ahead of us!

Cousin Katherine is ONE!

Cousin Katherine turned ONE earlier this month, and we were lucky enough to get to help her celebrate with a post birthday party! 

Party time!!!

Looks like everybody loves ELMO!

All the girl cousins with Aunt Angela and Uncle Jason!

We enjoyed a great Saturday with family!  Daddy was off this weekend from FB, so he got to enjoy the day with as well!  What a relaxing fun day!  Katherine is getting so big and walking around!   Can't wait to see these kids grow up together!  Many fun times ahead!!!

Playtime and smiling faces

Jamison and Brooklyn have been enjoying each other to play with lately.

 Oh....if they could just always be this happy....

Jamison had been sporting a mullet of sorts for lack of better words!  His hair was getting a little long in the back, and with picture day at school upon us, mom had to take action into her own hands.  So on the kitchen floor mom attempts Jamison's FIRST hair cut!

Jamison didn't do too bad sitting on dads lap, but mom had to work fast as it didn't last long!  Luckily she just had the back to do!  Not sure if she will do all future hair cuts or not, but I don't think I did too bad for the first one---you will have to wait for the school pictures and decide for yourself :)

We Love You Aunt Julie!!

Come back to visit us soon!!
