A time

I am loving this week's weather. Mid to high 7o's, I actually feel like it is fall with the beautiful tree's. We've also had an awesome crop of pomegranates that Addy is in love with and whenever she is outside I find her breaking one open and stuffing herself. Our small chicken family is about to get bigger due to Uncle John's generosity we should be getting around 10 more hens wandering around I'm sure the rooster will be thrilled :) My kids ( I still think it's funny to use that plural form) are getting so big. Whenever I think that this is getting easier something comes up... like Addy's molars. More often than not this grumpy girl wakes up crying from naps and saying "owie" but she still perks up after awhile and makes life fun. Her nursery leaders said " wow she has quite a personality!" I asked if that meant she was naughty and they said "no, she's just so smart and does what we ask" we'll see how that goes this week because she learned the word no two days ago and hardly says anything but it.

Liam is becoming such a good boy and is sleeping from 7:30- 5:30 every night in his own room. Just wish he'd sleep by himself during the day because he seems to think I need to hold him while he naps... silly boy. I love this onesie it says "nuts about mommy" I'm sure nuts about this big cheeked boy!
Since the weather was so nice I wanted to put brother in his outfit from my good friend Melissa and Addy wanted to show off her favorite hat so I took some pictures of my sweeties.

picking pomegranates

daniel's favorite... loves the look on Addy's face
Ummmm can you say cheeks... cutie!
my handsome boy.
love these two.
Oh yeah I canned this salsa all by myself, thanks to the nice neighbors who gave me a bunch of peppers and tomatoes. It was my first canning project.

Halloween was okay. Daniel had to work a 24 hour shift and my cousin Steph had to work too. So Caleb came over with the kids and we took them to a few houses. Addy's costume was a hit and got tons of comments. They weren't going to dress up Gage but I found some costume paint and took a note from Thriller and made him a Zombie.
Heidi made Josh a deer.. she also made Addy's costume for Josh when he was little. She does and awesome job.
Zombie Gage and cute witch Tippy

my little stinker!

Nice job with the last-minute Gage costume! And I love the little stinker too. Yep, my "Little" is twins with yours. Thanks for being cool with it. =)

I asked her and she said it was a process. She went on Etsy she said and just searched for images like a whale and a plane....and then found simple ones and cut them out of paper and then bought iron on paper and fabric and had the ladies cut them out....sorry no simple solution. Makes me feel good that she spent all this time on me.
