Good-bye October, Hello November

Another wonderful Halloween night. We hit up our favorite little neighborhood again this year - and the kids literally ran from house to house. This was truly our first year "Trick or Treating." Kara and Jace were champs and really got into the whole experience. The neighborhood we go to is so great - every house is decorated and a lot of the homes are having Halloween parties. Its so festive! Bryce was a champ too, as he didn't fuss once.


It was so hilarious when we got home and Bryce wanted to play with all the candy. He didn't go to bed till after 8p that night (that is really late for him).

This past Monday I worked from home as Grammie visited Taylor, Stephanie, Kaitlyn and new baby Alexis in Idaho. What a great day Jace and I had, with Kara at school it was a lot of one-on-one time for Jace and I. We had our first messy finger painting time.

We also had Bryce's 6 month check up (although he is now officially 7 months old, he technically was 6 1/2 months at the time of the appointment). He is doing great and I was reminded that we can start feeding him Cheerios so here is his first munch-session. His face says it all. He absolutely loves eating them now:-)

Same day as the above finger painting, Jace found Jamin's new hunting hat and sunglasses. He wants to be just like his daddy:-)

And here he is wanting to "exercise" with Jamin. How ironic or fitting that he was wearing his Superman costume again (let me tell you - if I would let him - he would live in that costume). Thanks Spencer for the Bowflex:-)

Life with children is so great. I can't believe two weeks has went by since my last post. Things continue to get more and more fun and challenging. Bryce is really trying to crawl (trust me - I push him down all day) and I am sure by Thanksgiving will be semi-mobile. Although he can roll himself around the room fairly quickly already. I just keep thinking Jace will be 3 in 7 weeks, Bryce will be celebrating his first Christmas and Kara is already months into Kindergarten. AHHH! It's going by so fast.
