Gotta represent

Friday the 21st was Apple Cup day at school. Maddie was SO excited! She has a cougar cheerleader outfit that is almost too small so she was excited that she could still wear it. She said that there was an equal number of kids in the class that liked each team but she was not very happy when the door holder kept repeating that the cougars stink when cougar fans passed by. Go Cougs!

Halloween

We had a great Halloween this year. We went to our friends Jeff and Raegans and had pizza and then out to trick or treat. The kids were SO excited. Josh and I were excited too-Jake can't eat anything so we got all of his candy!( mean parents huh)

My mom got the kids glow in the dark jammies. They LOVED them. Thanks Hama!
Luke was a monkey. No candy in there buddy!

Maddie was an artist. She was so excited-she loves art.

Jake was Buzz Lightyear. This is his new thing. Buzz and Woody.

The group picture-Maddie, Jake, Luke, Tyler and Ava.
Poor Ava. She didn't like it at first. This picture captured half the night. The other kids going to the door and Ava hanging back. She did warm up at the end and hit a few houses herself.

Pumpkin Patch

This year we went to the Pumpkin Patch with my MOPS group. We had a good time and Josh was able to come too. We went on a weekday when they didn't have all of their special activities going but I heard they had monster truck rides. A definte for Jake next year!


Maddie and Jake on the cow train. They pull these cow cars by tractor-very fun!
Whats the funnest thing to do at the patch? Eat your zipper!

Too concentrated on driving to smile

By the end of the day Luke was a little tired.


Whee! Down the slide we go.
Jake-would you look at the camera?!

Luke 6 months old

Luke is now 6 months old. We can't believe how fast time goes by. He seems to be teething and looks like his bottom teeth will be coming soon. He is sitting up really well by himself and LOVES to eat solids. He doesn't seem to interested in moving though. Not making any moves toward crawling of scooting. Josh and I decided that was ok though. Crawling means gates and we are sure that Jake will kill himself trying to jump or climb over those things. Here are a few recent pics of Luke. As you can see he is a very happy baby.






Crazy little Jake

I know that some of you don't believe me when I say that Jake is a little crazy. Ok, not crazy but VERY busy. He loves to climb, jump off of everything and won't stop going until I tie him down so he will sleep. The other day I came in the room and Jake was upside down in Lukes Jumperoo jumping upside down with his legs on the wall. He thought it was the funniest thing-until he either brakes the toy or his head!


Go Seahawks!!!

So our kids know who they are to cheer for-Josh makes that very clear. Seahawks, Cougs, Mariners and Yankees. And the kids will tell you that Huskies is a bad word at our house-just incase that you didn't know that. Jake loves to cheer along with his dad for whatever team he is watching. Since it is football season, Jake wants to wear his Seahawks gear EVERYDAY! It is a constant battle not to let him take the shirts out of the dirty clothes. So here are a few pics of my boys sporting their gear.
