November 2020

Another month has flown by and we had a blast. Here are a few highlights from this month. Griffin loves it when anyone will sit and talk pokemon with him. 
Colson rolls everywhere and often gets stuck under furniture. So cute and sad when he cries for help.
Griffin was invited to a birthday party at "Blue Zoo" and he loved it. It's an indoor aquarium where you can pet sting rays, star fish, and turtles. You can feed birds, turtles, lizards, etc. It also has a small indoor playground and is a fun place for the kids to play. 
Colson turned 7 months - he is still as happy as ever and is just the best little buddy we could have every asked for. 

We finally got all of the extra branches and limbs cut and piled from last months ice storm damage. Now waiting on getting it picked up. 

4th child problems. We found him fussing because he tipped his playgym over onto himself but I made sure to snap a picture of him before helping him. 
Colson loves the fireplace. He just gets so excited when its on and tries to climb up and touch it. 
Best walking buddy. 

We snapped a few family photos  to use for the Christmas card this year. These 2 were our favorites. 

Griffin turned 6 this month! He has been waiting for this day for a long time. He was beyond excited to get the switch game he wanted (Luigi's mansion) especially because his siblings convinced him the present was a chocolate bar.
 


I took the kids to Blue Zoo again for Griffin's bday. 
I love baby turtles and maybe snuck a photo with it. One day I might have one as a pet. 
Happy 6th birthday buddy! 
Peanut Butter s'mores cake by request. Delicious. We sure love you Griffin! 
Quick nap for these boys. 
Zoo day with Daddy the week of Thanksgiving. 


This sweet baby is so close to crawling but hasn't quite put 2 and 2 together. Well now he is starting to pull himself up on thing like the coffee table and his crib. He was so proud when I found him like this yesterday after his nap. 

October 2020

Colson turned 6 months in October. Time is sure flying by! 
First taste of rice cereal. He liked it for the most part. 
Colson is the best walking buddy. Loves to hang out in the stroller and just be happy. 
We took the kids to Great Wolf Lodge in Texas during their fall break. The loved playing in the water all day and were excited to have bunk beds to sleep in at night. Kids dream! 
We drove down to the magnolia silos to check them out. The bakery did not disappoint and it was fun walking around the shops. Bucket list item done! 

Avery's answer when I ask her what her favorite part of the school day is. 
I took the kids to a pumpkin patch on their last day of fall break. Petting zoo & pony rides were the hit. 


Tractor ride. 
Hay bail maze 
We picked out a mini pumpkin at the end - what a fun oatch! 
Griffin is our little snuggler. 
We had several days of ice storms where the trees all froze before the leaves dropped and it caused a lot of limb damage.... our trees and trampoline took a beating. Glad our house stayed safe! 
Colson loves to chew on these silicon tubes - his fav. 
Napping on Daddy. 
Colson is really learning to sit up well and is rolling around like crazy. 
We had a lot of fun having Dallin & Teesha coming to visit for Halloween. 


On Halloween morning I ran a 5k in the neighborhood. I got 22:36 and am super grateful for a healthy body that allows me to exercise! 
Avery the pretty mermaid and her jack o lantern pumpkin. 
Halloween feast! 
Teesha made these delicious apples. 
It was fun dressing up and going trick or treating with the family!
