Trunk or Treat at church

On Wednesday, the church had a potluck dinner and then Trunk or Treat in the parking lot. People decorated their trunks and handed out candy as the kids trick or treated. It was a fun time, other than being very hot! We had to come up with another costume so they wouldn't be too hot!


Haley, Ellie and Charlie trick or treating at the Dyson's trunk. Courtney is the little ladybug!


Kiptyn and daddy!


Haley will do anything for some candy! She went in the decorated trunk bed and got some candy out of the coffin! Good thing for mommy, it was three musketeers!


So proud, she grabbed three of them!


Kiptyn waving hello!


Haley checking out this trunk with the smoke coming out of it!


Look at that bowl getting filled! Good thing someone forgot their bowl one night, cause I didn't bring anything for her to trick or treat with!

Not so haunted hayride

I signed Haley and I up for this hayride at Frying Pan Farm. It was a waste of my money! There was really nothing exciting about it. But we got to see some cows!


Kiptyn enjoying his ride!


Haley checking out the scenery!


Arria with the girls after going through the arch!


More cuteness of Kiptyn.

Arria has all the good pics, I'm sure!

mainly music Halloween edition

We have had our 4th mainly music session and it was a Halloween edition! We had a great time. All the kids were dressed up in costumes. We had lots of ladybugs! I made some jello jigglers in the shape of skulls and pumpkins and they were a hit! I think Ellie and Haley ate most of them! We had a craft and it was fun! Haley and Kiptyn just wore their matching skeleton shirts, they looked so cute. I had to sell the third shirt at the consignment sale....it made me sad knowing that I had to only put on two shirts that day instead of three. I think Kylie was still wearing though!



This is what happened when I pulled out the camera...they were sitting together so nicely until then.


This is what happens with pictures together now.


So cute! He's clapping to the music!


Tired from all the dancing!

Haley and Ellie....again hard to get pictures together anymore!


A better picture of the two of them.


Kiptyn and KB playing footsie. So cute!

FCMOM Halloween party

Haley and I went to the FCMOM Halloween party. First we did some coloring of a trick or treat bag, then we went on to play dough and then onto to eating! After that we saw some show, Haley didn't really care about that she was too busy running across the gym floor.


Coloring


She looks dangerous with that rolling pin! ha


Crawling on the floor!


Scary kitty!

Way behind!

So its been a long while since I have last blogged. What a horrible mom! But that doesn't mean we dont have pics from those last months!

Kiptyn has 8 teeth now and is 24 pounds. He is wearing 18 month clothes! He got back last week from his first trip to California with daddy. He came back waving the royal wave! It is pretty cute. He made many friends on his trip, no surprise there! He of course has solid poops when he was in CA and then came home back to his normal diarrhea. He and I have started seeing a chiropractor hoping that is will help his torticollis in some way. He is still favoring one hand over the other when eating. He is crawling all over the place, pulling up on everything, babbling up a storm and taking some steps while holding onto things. Little Kiptyn sure does know how to get into trouble! :) Such a boy.

Haley is doing well. She is coming up with new words and phrases every day. She goes to preschool twice a week for 3 hours and loves it. She is shy, but is aware of everything! She is a little mother as well. H helps me with Kiptyn all the time, but only when it's convenient for her! She is also the typical almost three year old attitude! She once told us at dinner one night that is the food was friggin hot! Talk about a mouth dropper on that one! She loves to play with play dough, coloring and dancing. She starts gymnastics on Monday, so hopefully I can get some good pictures of that!

Now for some Halloween event pics to start off our Halloween weekend!

It's official!!

Kiptyn is now crawling!

May chaos begin.

Video to come at some point!

4th of July festivities

We started out bright and early with a Walk to Remember in honor of our loving little Kylie. It was a walk through the Compassionate Friends organization, which supports families who have lost a child. We walked two miles!
Then we met Mimi and Papi for brunch for Mimi's birthday. It was an interesting time as Haley had pooped in her undies! Fun times. But it was yummy and we left full of course. We then had a great nap when we got home.
After we woke up, we went the wonderful McCabe's house for some delicious food! We surprised Jennifer with an ice cream birthday cake! :) Haley enjoyed it of course! Then we came home and went to bed.
It was a good 4th, other than missing Kylie and her matching outfit that the other two kiddos had on.

Haley cheesing in her 4th of July attire!

One stop along the way.

Mommy and kids with pretty scenery!
