Ever's Antics

This little girl is so advanced, it's a little ridiculous. She took her first steps on the day she turned 9 months and it's all been downhill from there! She is into everything, is a climber and a general trouble maker, though you'd never suspect it from that beautiful little angelic face and her quiet, still nature.

 These pictures are from a blow out. One morning I heard Ever wake up and start playing in her crib. In the back of my mind I had a thought, "go change her diaper, she probably pooped." And of course I ignored it, enjoying the quiet time she was having in her crib, and then I got busy getting kids off to school. Then I went to get her...YUMMY! I'd say I learned my lesson, but I'm not so sure that's true. :)

Just the other day, I knew Ever was over by the pantry. I was busy sweeping when I heard things begin crashing to the floor. This is what I found. She had climbed onto a box and was dumping everything from the first shelf onto the floor. Doesn't her look just say, "Look mom, I'm helping you reorganize the pantry! The pickles do NOT go next to the Nutella!

Halloween

We had a great Halloween with lots of trick-or-treating and WAY too much candy!

 Annicka was Anna from Frozen, Park was a power ranger, Indie's pirate costume still fit and so he insisted, and Milo also insisted on the Superman costume again. Ever was a China doll, though she wasn't pictured here.

YAY for Fall! Pumpkin Carving and Cornbelly's

I seriously love fall and the weather it brings! We've had some good times together celebrating and enjoying festivities that come at this time of year. We were able to spend time at Cornbelly's playing.

 Milo is in that up and down stage right now where he is learning to moderate his emotions. His highs are high and his lows are low. Illustrated in the picture above. :)

 Riding the cow train

 One of Ever's favorite faces right now.

 Indie and Milo really got into carving pumpkins this year. It was a lot of fun!

 Annicka picked out all the seeds for us so we could roast them! Yummy!

And I just love Park!

Park's Halloween program

 We had so much fun getting scared at Park's Halloween program!

Milo's Birthday

This boy is THREE!

 We had a pretty busy day on Milo's birthday. Scott took a half day and we had a picnic lunch at Neptune park. Annicka had piano and activity days and Park had his Halloween program that same evening. For his Birthday cake I made a sugar cookie bar. It was delicious...for some reason we don't have a picture of it...hmmm. But we sure had a good time opening presents and getting sugared up!

 Milo got a fun big truck to match Indie's and now they can push them around together with no more fighting. Okay, with maybe a little less fighting.

 And some toy guns of course. He loves to shoot bad guys right now.

We sure love the fun, silly, happy, and bright spirit this boy brings into our family! He makes life so much more fun.
