Our 1st Snow Day of the Season!

Isn't he a cute little snow bunny!?

or should I say spunky?

 Darren gets the credit for this cool pic.

You never get too old to lick snow off the outdoor furniture ;)

Davis just chillin inside with Dad.

mmmmhm... he's already moved up to the BIG BOTTLES... they make him look so tiny... if that's even possible for one of our kids to be tiny.

Oh my adorable boys

They don't have to do much to make me fall in love with them all over again every day!



Bumbo


Looks like he's ready for the Bumbo!


Just Playing

Trying to get one last good use out of the sand box before it has to be packed up for the winter.

Fixin' stuff like dad!

Happy Halloween!

I just love Halloween! Not the blood, guts, scary side of halloween... but the playful, carefree, child like fun side of Halloween. I think it's fun to imagine something you could never be in real life and pretend to be it for a day.

This year we were all characters from the disney movie " Rio "






Damon loves Aedyn to pieces!
Minnie and Blu got to trick-or-treat together and had so much fun. Really! They got so in to it! They ran from house to house and as soon as one house was finished they would promptly inform me that we were going to go to 1-4-16 more houses!
Here's Damon's bird cage full of lute!


I love my 'hi-pod'

We decided to give Damon my old ipod and he loves it! It's just crazy that he's old enough to enjoy just sitting down listening to music.

If only it were always like this...

Damon was watching cartoons while I fed Davis and when I was done I decided to sit Davis down next to his older brother without saying anything to see what Damon said.

Much to my surprise he didn't say anything he just put his little arm around him...
...then decided to pull him closer and hold his hand.
What a cute lil' pair.

California Dreamin'

Some friends of mine decided to take a girls trip to California.... and last minute one of the girls backed out. When they asked me to go I originally said no because although everything in me wanted to go I knew it was selfish and unpractical.

Anyhoo... I kept thinking about the trip and how much fun they were going to have and I couldn't get it off my mind so I decided to ask Darren if I could go.

Keep in mind this is his favorite vacation... California, Magic Mountain, the Beach, the Food. We go every year about this time but I told him I didn't want to go this year with the baby. I knew it wouldn't be fun having to pull over and feed the little guy every two hours on the drive. Plus I wouldn't be able to have fun at Magic Mountain because I'd be feeding the whole time.... and well... you get the point. And hopefully now you can see why I was so nervous to ask him if I could go on his favorite vacation without him. The very vacation I told him I didn't want to go on.

Long story short... I HAVE THE BEST HUSBAND IN THE WHOLD WORLD! He let me go and it was just what I needed!

We had more fun than I can put down on paper. I haven't laughed that hard in AGES! Here are a few pics from the trip (sadly I was a terrible photographer and only took 2 pics... I know crazy!) Luckily Lana took a few on her phone.


This is us at the restaurant we never ate at. Ha Ha. We asked some locals where to find good food and several people told us of this place so we figured it must be good. We got in, sat down, looked at the menu and about died... the food was so expensive that we told our waitress we were sorry but we were going to have to bail. We felt so stupid but we certainly weren't going to spend such a ridiculous sum of money on food.
Oh Magic Mountain! Too bad we didn't take our pic in front of one of the crazier roller coasters.

Me and Jena... and yes... I ate that HUGE burger!

Our day to day according to my cell phone

I did this post real fast so I apologize ahead of time for not turning some of the photos the correct direction. And like I said... they're cell phone pics so the quality is a bit... well... non-existent.

Davis' new snow hat... can you tell he just loves it. ha ha
Won't you be my neighbor?
What's up doc?
and yes, he dressed himself that day.

You can call me rolley bones
Damon loves himself a good road trip... nothin' like relaxin in the throne!
Damon also loves a good pancake!
As for Davis... he prefers his hand to just about anything


Sometimes he even tries to get both hands in there... ha ha.
One thing he doesn't like so much is tummy time... so we try to spruce it up by doing it 'airplane' style.
Damon is just like his Grandpa he loves his green 'hi-pod'
ut oh... trying to be a cool cat already.
'CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS' Someone gets to wear big boy underpants when he goes to grandma's house and he loves it!


A quick day at the park




On of our last park outings before it gets too cold for mom and Davis
