Trick-or-Treat Video

Halloween 2011

Halloween was SO much fun this year! It started out with pumpkins! We have had our pumpkins for a while and Lexi loves them! She would drag them everywhere. She would even try to get Tip's 20 lb pumpkin off the ground but as in her words "it stuck." We carved pumpkins the Saturday before Halloween and Lex thought it was so awesome. She kept licking the lids, yuck! I never got a picture of Tips, opps.





 
I worked on Halloween, so I hurried home to get Lexi ready. She was absolutely the cutest lady bug ever. She loved her costume and never once tried taking her hat off. Our plan was to only got trick-or-treating to a few houses. We didn't think Lex would care or understand it, boy were we wrong!! SHE LOVED IT!! After the first 2 houses she realized if she knocked they would put candy in her bucket, so she literally ran from house to house. She would go right up to the door and tap with her hand and say knock knock, then just wait. The minute they opened the door she would stick out her hand and say please. When she had her candy she would wave bye and off to the next. We ended up going for an hour, and she could have gone much longer but we were done. It was so much fun to watch. She was not scared one bit! We laughed at how much she loved it and we had to keep up with her. Our friends Ashley and Callaway came with us. The girls looked so little at the doors. It was way fun! We got some hilarious video!  Lexi is getting so much fun! We loved our Halloween and are looking forward to next!!

We are having a baby BOY!!!

We found out today that our new little addition is a baby boy!! We couldn't be more thrilled!! When they started the ultrasound this morning she started at his head and scanned down. He was laying spread eagle with his arms and legs both straight out. It was very obvious right away that we were having a baby boy! Tip was so excited. Although, he hasn't said it I knew he really wanted a boy! I've been dreaming about a baby boy and since this pregnancy has had such different symptoms I was feeling that it was a boy but wasn't positive. We couldn't be happier! Everything is measuring perfect with him. He looks prefect!! He didn't like being poked at because by the end of the ultrasound he had curled into a little ball at the bottom of my uterus. We all laughed at how much room he had but he was snug right in a tight ball holding onto his legs.

It still amazes me how much I love this little guy so much! I don't have a clue what to do with little boys but I am sure I will learn quick! I know Lexi will be a great big sister! She already loves babies so much! She kisses my belly and says baby. When we listened to his heart beat she said WOW!  I don't know what I am going to do with 2 kids but I can't wait!!
 
Here are his cute little feet, and toes!
 Still can't believe we are having a boy!!

Pumpkin Patch and Farm

We went with our friends the Griffiths and the Broadhead's to the pumpkin patch and farm. We had an absolute blast despite the wind and cold. Lexi loved it!! They had a petting zoo where you could go in with the sheep, goats, lambs, mini horse and pigs. Lex has loves animals lately but never has really seen any. I thought she would be a little nervous, instead she loved it! She chased them, and petted every animal. She was in heaven! She went down the slide, played in the corn, and crawled through tunnels. We went on a little wagon ride and she waved and said hi to the cows with huge grin on her face the whole time. We got a ride out the the patch and picked a 20 lbs pumpkin and a little one for Lexi which she kept calling a ball. We then went out to dinner and had a fabulous time. I didn't get one picture of all the adults and we attempted at getting one of all 4 girls. It was a fun night with friends!

Here are some of her latest talents:
~She Loves babies and doesn't go very far without her doll.
~She still loves movies.
~She loves playing dress ups, especially wearing tutus.
~She loves getting her hair done and sits and smiles at herself the whole time.
~She is very chatty and talks all day long. Her favorite words are:
Mom, Dad, Oh no! no no no, yes, hi, bye bye, ball, baby, Bamba (grandpa), backpack, Jadi, boon (balloon), moo (cow), baaa (lamby), hee (hourse). And lots of jibberish.

~Loves to go down for a nap and to bed at night.
~Loves to wait in the window and watch for Mom to come home from work. She waves like mad as a I drive up. I look forward to seeing her face in the window.

I could go on and on about her. She is so fun. She loves to help. When I get out of the shower she always hands me my towel. She loves to help Tip clean the cars. She also can be quite dramatic and often falls on the floor when she doesn't get what she wants. She loves snacks and all food. Her favorite is fruit snacks! She is getting so big. I can't believe it! It goes by way to fast!!

Here are some random pictures I've taken over the last month with my phone. We still haven't purchased a new camera.
