Growing Pains

So, guess who has eaten her first few (or three or four), likes to sit up (though still falls on many occasions), and can offically roll over and back? This girl right here! (And she almost always refuses to smile when a camera is placed in fron tof her)

She log rolled across the living room on Sunday! Ok, maybe not a log roll, but she rolled a few times. She immediately rolls to her tummy when you lay her down, and then proceeds to get highly ticked off. I can't wait until she is mobile, though I can...

The biggest challenge I think will be Ayden's toys. As much as we try, this boy will not pick his toys up all the time! Maybe after she gets ahold of them a few times he will change his ways.

Hope you had a happy halloween...

...since it was about 2 weeks ago! Oh, well! Here are the pictures of the kids. I didn't take too many, as Keleigh was already tired before we began. he made just a few stops during the evening. First came Grandma's house, which Ayden did not want to leave. Anyone surprised? Not this mama...

Second, we went to the high school where the Beta club was have a trunk or treat. I absolutely knew Ayden would not walk up to a stranger's house, and I am not too sure I wanted him to. So I thought this was a good option. There were very few cars, but the idea was still great. Some of the kids really tried to get Ayden to open up and just a couple succeeded. Afterwards, we took the kids to see my grandma at the nursing home. Ayden doesn't like it there and gets very upset, but I knew it would make her day. We met my aunt, Jamie and Kenzie there. The residents were handing out candy to kids so he got a little more loot. Overall, I think it was a successful night. Ayden didn't get much candy, but that is alright with me. He isn't much of a candy eater anyway!

Hello, my name is Keleigh.

I like bottles, sitting straight up, and my brother. Things I don't like included tummy time, naps, and tummy time.

I swear this girl will never crawl because she refuses to stay on her stomach! But I love her anyway.

Gone mobile!

I downloaded the Android app, so hopefully you will see more posts.

Ayden's THIRD Birthday

Ayden's birthday was actually the first of the month, but I am just now blogging about it. School has started back and between a new curriculum and going between two campuses, I haven't had too much time. The theme for his party was Cars 2. I decided to try and be crafty this year so I made his treats. He didn't have a traditional cake. Instead I made a round brownie to serve as a race track. The other snacks were cupcakes. Pretty simple. Maybe next year my talents will have increased and things will look a little better!

The picture below was actually taken by Ayden... Not bad.

This is Marcus' rear end. Taken by Kendall. Should I be worried?

Last Day of Laziness

Today was my last day of summer vacation. I officially report back to school tomorrow morning. It will be way to early when I wake up...

Jennifer and I decided to go to the new aquarium that just opened in Grapevine. Let me tell you: if you plan on going, buy your tickets online a week before hand. They only let a certain amount in on timed intervals, so you may be standing in line for quite some time. It probably didn't help that there was a summer camp there. That is a story in itself.

We were not allowed to use the flash on out cameras once we got inside the aquarium, so the pictures are the greatest quality. Also, I didn't get them rotated before posting so consider this my apology!
