More Halloween Pictures

Brayden's Class:
Miss Rachel (as herself), Brayden (as Bob the Builder), Cooper (as a Fireman), Ryan (as Woody), Izzy (as a princess), Sophia (as Snow White), Kaitlyn (as Jessie fromToy Story -Ryan's big sister)

This afternoon we watched Teya and Brayden had to get into his sister's car seat, just like Teya.

Really excited for Trick or Treating!! Gotta bundle up!

Across the street with neighbor Avery

Happy Halloween!!

Tuesday Brayden had his school Halloween Party. It was so cute to see the kids all dressed up, listening to spooky music and painting pumpkins. It was so beautiful out, 75! Today, I am sitting in the office handing out candy (and updating this blog) while Daddy and Brayden are out
"Trick or Treating". Brayden is "Bob the Builder" but his costume is a little covered up since today's high was only 50! This is "Trick or treat" heaven here, kids in abundance. We are not used to this as the most we ever had was 15 kids. This year, we ran out by 7pm!

Just call me BOB

Working on some projects

Hurray! It's Halloween! I am painting a masterpiece pumpkin!

Miss Rachel is helping us paint our pumpkins

We like to "Move it, Move it"!!

End of October

Days are getting shorter, the Rockies did not win the World Series, and I am getting bigger. I love the feeling of fall. It's a little different here in the sense that it's mostly sunny rather than the mostly cloudy that we are used too. Which is nice. Here are some pictures from the last week:
Refusing my nap, but crashing on the couch!

I was thinking Teya could be my tool assistant?

Good Job, Sweetie!

I decided Mom's jacket looked good on me too!

Here's Mom, 38 weeks!! Almost here!!!

37 weeks!

Here I am, 37 weeks! Wow, it's going so fast......I have a feeling that she's going to be coming earlier than that. We'll see......I was right with Brayden so you never know.
Saturday my neighbor Becky threw me a baby shower with my family and friends. It was so nice and we got lots of cute things!! All PINK!

Let it snow!

Today we had our first Colorado snow! It was very pretty coming down and of course, we were out playing at 8am. I think we got around 6-8 inches. Funny thing, it doesn't last here. Yesterday's high was 80 and today it snowed, by the end of the week it will be 70 again. Here are some pictures from today:


Getting all ready!!

Mom, I love sledding!

more Birthday pictures...

"Bob the Builder" never looked so cute!

I'm a cowboy!!
(Nana gave him a cowboy hat for his birthday)

My Little Man's 2 years old!!

I can't believe that we have a 2 year old! Time sure does fly. I feel like we just brought him home, until he starts telling me to "Stop it" and runs around in circles naked trying to get away from me. But anyway, still doesn't seem like he should be that old. He's quiet the little character, his personality is so much fun. I think he's got Momma's wild side to him and his Dad's ability to tune me out. We are just amazed everyday at the things he says and comes up with. It's so much fun!

For his birthday yesterday we hung out in the morning and for lunch he wanted to go to "Donald's" (aka McDonald's). Then we came home and took a nap and woke up to go to his big party. We had it at a place called "House of Bounce" which is a play area for kids that has all inflatable bouncy things. He had his friends from school and relatives there. It worked out perfectly. Of course, the theme was "Cars". From now on, parties will be held at places like this......the kids just love it and so do the parents (less to clean up before and after)! The party ended at 6pm and we came home to open of course, more presents. He was wild up until he went to bed! Here are some pictures from his big day:

This is so much fun!!

Happy Birthday, to me!!

They are all singing for me!
(this was so cute, he was singing along)

Yes, I get to eat cake and ice cream too!!
(mom found an egg-less cake recipe-thanks Lisa-and ice cream)
Present time!!

Uncle Jamie and Angie are here!

Jamie and Angie came to visit us Thursday night- Sunday. We went up to Boulder to a few micro breweries (humm, must be nice to have a DD), and how weird is it that their absolute favorite was called "Avery Brewery"! Must be a sign ;) Joel, Angie and Jamie attended the Great American Beer Festival downtown on Saturday night, I can't wait to go next year!!! Sunday we had brunch at Tom and Mitch's house before they left. We had a great time!
