Meeeooowww . . . .

My son makes me laugh really hard at least once a day.

 

Today he was at therapy and he had an accident.

Very typical for an Asperger's kid so they always have extra clothes lying around.

When I came to pick him up I could see him a mile away.

His occupational therapist was yelling at me "I had nothing to do with this!!!  This was his choice!  Not mine!!"

 

 

 

 

Oh man, I bet they had a great laugh at therapy today.

I know I did!!

 

 

 

 

 

You probably can't tell from the picture, but these are very girly, tapered leopard leggings :)

 

The whole way home he was saying:

"I look like a leopard!"

"Leopards are very cool."

"I am going to be a leopard for next Halloween!"

"I am going to wear leopard all weekend long!"

"Can you get me some leopard pants for school!"

 

 

He is wearing them right now and I am still laughing.

Lately . . . . .

What have we been up to you ask?

 

A lot.

 

Davin got a new job and we will soon be moving to Idaho Falls.

So happy for my Davin, but dreading the move for us and especially for my Christopher.

 

 

These two are so in love.

At least Andy is.

 They watch shows together, (holding hands of course).

 

Andy dresses him up and comes up with all sorts of things to play together.

 

 

He is very creative considering all the baby can do is lie there.

 

 

 

 

We had a fun Halloween.

 

 

We made pumpkin shaped pizzas.

 

 

We painted and carved pumpkins in our underwear and the boys went trick or treating with Daddy.

 

 

 

 

 

I have been taking pictures for friends.
 

 

I used my brother's camera (Thanks Rob) and have decided that I need this camera. 

We got some beautiful shots.

I love this picture of my friend's little girl and her Curly Shirley :)

 

 

 

This baby is the love of all of our lives right now.

He is sweet, cuddly, smiley, and just plain adorable.

He just started eating rice cereal and loves it.

 

 

 

He is definitely NOT a bottle boy.  He also hates pacifiers.

So different than my other boys.

 

 

What have you been up to lately?



Did you vote?

It's time!  The poll is closed.  The contest is over. 

The most votes went to Scooby Doo, Shaggy, and a monster.

Unfortunately, the least votes went to Spiders and a fly.

Meet my scary spiders

 

 

and my scrumptious fly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Happy Halloween everyone!!!!!

Get ready . . . . . .

 

 

 

 

It is time for the annual

WHAT ARE MY KIDS GOING TO BE FOR HALLOWEEN CONTEST! 

Yaaaay!!!  The wait is over!!!  The poll is to your right!

We are adding a new guy to the mix and it is going to be fun.

Good luck!

 

See the fun we have had in previous years here, here, here, and here

Love notes . . . . .

Chris has been having fun writing notes.

I love finding them around the house.

Some are so great I just have to share.

 

This one I found on the door to his room.

 

 

 

"No girls allowed.  Only girl friends."

(And, let me tell you, he has A LOT of girlfriends.  I'm serious.)

 

 

 

 

This one I found in his backpack ready to take to his teacher.

 

 

 

"I am in your heart.  You're in my heart. Name Chris."

 

I have no idea where he comes up with this stuff, but no doubt his teacher will love it.



Things We Love Lately . . . . .

I love that fall is in the air. 

My favorite time of year. 

We have started to get a bounty of food from our local farm. 

 

 

I looooove having all of this fresh food in our fridge. 

Makes dinner so much easier.

 

 

I am loving these two.

 

 

I have a feeling they will be good buddies.

 

 

 

I love that my grandparents get to see my kids every other week.

 

 

 

I love that they will have memories of their great grandparents.

 

 

 

I love this kid. 

 

 

He is talking and smiling and . . . . . losing his beautiful hair :(  Ha ha

 

 

I love this picture of Matty and his cousin Iva.

 

These two are so adorable.

This might be my favorite picture at the moment.

 

What are you loving lately?

The first day . . . . . .

Andy had his first day of preschool today. 

 

 

 

He was pretty nervous.

When we got to the school he said "No, I will go to school later."

He did fine though and had fun.

Probably didn't speak a word, but had fun :)

His teacher is a recent widow with 5 children.  Amazing, amazing woman and friend.  We feel so lucky to go to her preschool. 

I think he will have a fun year!! 

Can't believe how much he has grown.
