Halloween Flash Back!

Halloween #1
Halloween #2

Halloween #3 
They are Gnomes! Garden Gnomes to be exact. However they think they are Elf's or Dwarfs.




"Hi Ho, Hi Ho"... yes they do shout this as they skip around the yard. What do you think neighbors think of me?

More pics to come later of Trick or Treating!

Sneak Peek!


Lastnight I had to snap some shots, just in case tomorrow is crazy busy, and I have a feeling I have will have a timid boy on my hands with all the costumes walking around our neighborhood!

Hurricane Sandy Virus

Charlie got the virus first, but seemed to kick it a lot quicker than Ms. Lilly.
Her immune system got rocked by this virus, just like how Hurricane Sandy is rocking the east coast, right about now.

Lilly loves "mommy's bed." Although it is really "mommy and daddy's bed" she calls it "mommy's bed"


She really made herself at home in our bed on Friday night.


Let's hope this Hurricane Sandy Virus takes a hike before Wednesday so we can enjoy Halloween.

She eats the chocolate frosting off the top and leaves the rest.

First Snow Of The 2012/2013 Season


Lilly can FINALLY wear her Boots that she has patiently been waiting to wear, and she told her dad today that she planned on building a snowman as well.

Happy Hump Day


It should be SLUMP DAY in our house. The twins have been dealing with a "virus" and all 4 of us are in kind of a "funk" this week. Charlie not so much, he had his last week.  Let's hope things go UP from here!

There's A Place For Fun In Your Life!

Mall of America!

This is about a week late. LAST weekend we met Gma Pam, Auntie Karrie, and the boys at the Mall of America.
Charlie's love of LIVE animals showed through again!





It's Nemo!
Charlie's expression above makes me smile. I love "wowing" my kids by the cool things in life. Even if it costs an arm and a leg, or even involves a crazy mall crowd and a double stroller. It's a  lot of work up front but the  rewards and memories are priceless to look back on.
Now, onto something my kids ARE NOT a fan of. Huge Ass creatures that get in your face.
Their fear of  life size cartoons, gives me another year or two to save for the infamous Disney Trip that I have planning in my head.
The twins stressed Walker out so much, he had to meditate mid afternoon.

Watch Out!

Germ Season Is Here!

This little girl has dodged it for the most part so far. Just runny nose and cold stuff.

This little boy below, got "the croup."... You know the cough that only comes when he wants to sleep that sounds like Sparky The Seal From the Como Zoo?!

Him and I hung out today at the walk in clinic. The bonus for him was... 1. Perkins Pancakes 2. Target. He never leaves Target without a new DVD or Toy.


He is handling it like a trooper. Even if it is manure spreading season and our house smells like POO!


Charlie even asked me today "Mom, what that smell."

Strollin'

This little boy loves to "go outside." Sister is much more OK with watching movies... him..not so much.


There is no way around it. He will ask for something until he gets his way. Look at that determination in that face.


Tonight I took a stroll with just Charlie and the dog.

He is quite bossy...
We had to go back and get gloves..it was THAT CHILLY.


I forgot I scored these cute bear gloves at the end of the season last yet.


November 6th is FAST APPROACHING!

Get Out And VOTE!

TGIF!

That's Flashy!

I really like outdoor pictures. They are easier to take, too.
I am not very good at indoor pictures. I tend to give them scary red cherry eyes!
Tonight I came home with a new flash where I can control the flash and not have it blast off right in their face.


I have a lot to learn about it. The twins are sure good Guinea Pigs.








Kissing at the Diner. This picture is missing a milk shake!


She proceeded to spit the mouth full of water here, onto the table. Naughty girl!
