November Happenings...

We didn't have internet for the month so you get all the picuters at once. Mya was busy...

...jumping in her jumper

...playing with her stuffed animals

...learning her vegetables

...playing with her toys

...spending time with Raquel who came up for Thanksgiving

...playing with new toys at Grandma's house

...looking foward to next year when she can join everyone at the table and eat some turkey

...playing with Elijah

...mastering her piano skills

...watching Packer games...everyone loves Brett Favre

...practicing sitting up

...helping daddy finish painting our hall

...discovering her toes

She also can now go anywhere she wants. She is starting to crawl but if she really wants to get somewhere she arches her back and scoots across the floor on her head. She is quite entertaining.

HAPPY 4th ANNIVERSARY DYLAN and ANGIE!!

The last days of October!

For school yesterday Isaac dressed up as Anikan Skywalker. He looked so cute. All the parents were very impressed with his costume. Allyssa did a very good job!


This is the last daisy of the fall!

Dad was very tired Saturday afternoon because he stayed up late the night before. He took out his teeth and fell asleep while working on the computer.

Mya is starting to get teeth and I can't wait for them to come in because everything is covered in drool! She doesn't quite get the hang of the Jonny Jumper but loves chewing on it.


I forgot to put this picutre on the last post.

A weekend with dad!

Saturday afternoon I (Kristen) got the bright idea to paint our hallway. So at 3:00 we went to the paint store and at 11:00p.m. we finished the trim. I'll post pictures when it is all done...

Mya had fun playing on the floor while we painted...Derek thought she looked so cute!



Mya was helping daddy get ready for worship team.

Somehow Mya managed to get her teething ring all the way up her arms. She was so proud of herself.

Sunday afternoon we made another trip to the pumpkin patch. This time though Derek could come with us.





On the way home Mya fell asleep in the car with her two fingers in her mouth and she just looked so cute. This is the best picture I could get from the front seat but it just really doesn't show the full amount of cuteness!

Fun weekend with Aunts and Uncle

This weekend Grandma and Grandpa went to go visit aunt Tonya in Georgia and for Grandpa's 20th class renion and the school's 100th anniversary so I got to help mom watch Aunt Lydia, Uncle Nathan, Aunt Jenna, and Aunt Elise. We had so much fun!!

We started the weekend off by taking Aunt Jenna to the bus stop.

Aunt Jenna and Aunt Elise thought I looked so funny with my teeth.

Then Aunt Lydia helped give me a bath.

Saturday we went to the Pumpkin Patch. We went on a hay ride, picked pumpkins, and went through the corn maze. Aunt Jenna, Aunt Elise, and Isaac bounced in the big pumpkin. Maybe in a few years i'll be able to join them. I had lots of fun picking out a pumpkin. The corn maze got a little boring and I was fast asleep by the end. What a fun weekend.

Fun times

Mya, and I joined Aunt Elise and Grandma on a field trip to pick apples. We got to ride on a hayride and climb the ladders. We didn't have enough boxes so we filled Mya's stroller with apples.






Mommy turned 24 on the 4th. We had a fun time with everyone.



The leaves are falling so we raked a pile and had a fun afternoon of playing in them!


Elijah is 2! We sang happy birthday and had a brownie in his honor.

Elijah wanted to make sure Mya wasn't bored on the car ride!!


Daddy started a volleyball team and I like going and watching him play.

It was raining out so we made some jello jigglers with all kinds of shapes. Elijah didn't like them so he had cheetos. Isaac enjoyed Elijah's as well as his!
