Mess Maker

I felt bad for leaving Madison out of the last couple post.  She is now the offical biggest mess maker in our house.   She likes to get into everything that she knows she isnt suppose to.  Gerald put locks on all the kitchen cupboards after she broke a glass bread pan in her lap so she goes to the silverware drawer and gets a hand full of spoons and a hand full of forks and they go all over the floor.  By the time you get them picked up she has another hand full and does it again.  She likes to pull everyones clothes out of their drawers and throw them all over. (we have all learned to keep our bedroom doors closed)  She likes to pull all the movies out and scatter her diapers all over the living room floor. (clean ones)  She is very good at changing the channel when your watching your favorite show and its in the best part of the show.  Even though she is a little stinker we love her to death!!!  She gives me a pretty good work out every day.  




Cookes Cookies

I am late on getting this posted but oh well.  About a month ago we invited my friend Lacie over and her kids to make sugar cookies.  I gave them each a ball of dough and let them roll it out themselves and cut out their own and decorate them by themselves.  They all had alot of fun and did a good job.  

Poor Maddy was left out again.  I am going to have to start thinking of things that she can do too.  She had fun picking on them all trying to steal a cookie here and there.




Rainbow

I just wanted to share these pictures i thought they were really pretty.  They are taken out our back door after a rain storm about a month ago.

The many ways to have a nap

I just have to say i have some of the craziest sleepers in my house. Kenedi talks in her sleep and is not a good bed partner she is all over the place and moves non stop I don't know how she even gets any sleep. I'm sure glad my kids love their own beds. We have been finding Madison in some of the craziest positions having a nap. One day i found her laying in the middle of the kitchen floor sleeping. That just does not sound very comfy to me. Gerald was babysitting the other day and this is how she was having a nap. Crazy crazy kids!

I went in and checked on her one day during nap time and found her like this. Sometimes she has her arm or a leg stuck in the bar standing straight up in air in between the wall and the bar. I guess as long as she is comfy that's all that matters.





Halloween

MONKEY MADDY
LITTLE MISS WITCH KENEDI
Halloween was definitely different this year. Madison did not like it one bit. She screamed at just about every costume and was scared to death most the night. We went trick or treating by Gerald's moms house so he ended up staying there with Madison while i took Kenedi. Kenedi had so much fun. The skirt on her witch dress lights up and she thought it was the neatest thing. She got lots of candy and shared it all with her sister who was to scared to go. Hopefully next year Madison wont be so scared i felt so bad for her.

Pippi Longstocking

Today Kenedi had her Halloween party at school. She is actually going to be a witch but i didn't want her to wear her costume to school and it get ruined so we dressed her up as pippi longstocking. I thought she looked so cute. Gerald says she looks more like the girl from the Wendy's commercial which she kinda does but oh well.
She had lots of fun at her party. When Gerald picked her up from school she took her hair out in the truck because she said that it looked stupid. She is so funny and always keeps us laughing.





Carving Pumpkins

Tonight we carved our pumpkins finally. The girls were very excited because last year we just painted them. They each picked out what they wanted on theirs. Gerald's was very cool. He put it over my lamp to light it up. (Darn guy)
I didn't get a picture of Nikki's finished but it says BOO on it. It turned out really cute she did a good job.
Kenedi got stuck with me carving hers out because i don't think that i trust her with a knife just yet. Maybe a few more years. I don't do the best job but i tried my hardest to do what she wanted. She was happy with it.
Madison didn't get to help she she stood up there and had fun watching us. She sure is a cutie.
