Fall Fun Fest

Every year our church puts on the best Fall Fun Fest. There are bouncies and games and candy and shows and food, what more could you want? This year we invited Aidan's buddy Jake to go with us. So I had 2 Harry Potters, a dinosaur, and a tinkerbell. We had "Mummy Dogs" before we left and Aidan thinks I am a gourmet chef...love it! We had a great time and although they could have stayed forever, I was exhausted! We have to thank Mymom for the amazing Halloween costumes. There will have to be of course, real pictures in them, but the kids all love their costumes....especially Aidan. Is he not the cutest Harry Potter ever?

Quinn knew where the candy was and couldn't stay out of it.....

That's her saying .... "please!"

Even tinkerbell needs a rest from all this playing!

Harry "J" and Harry "A"

There is really no point in me dressing Quinn until we get wherever we are going. Every time we get in the car...bow is out, shoes are off, and socks are as well. On the way to church she all the sudden is screaming at the top of her lungs. I look back and she is struggling to get her "socks" off, which are tights. She was so mad she couldn't get them off. So I tried to distract her by singing her ABC's (LOVES to sing Abc's) and she was twirling her loose stocking all around. The screaming stopped, but I still had to re-dress her when we got there. If you see a van with a naked child in the back, it's me! I'll dress her when we get there......haha

Hopskotch mommy.....please

Odd requests are common in this house. The other day Canon asked me to play hopskotch with him. Hopskotch? I didn't even know that he knew what that was! SURE! I had to draw it in the garage because it has been raining here for about 2 months now( a little exaggeration, but really SO MUCH RAIN!) We had so much fun playing and he did pretty good, even on one foot. Quinn walked around with the chalk bucket as her purse and kept sneaking out in the rain.

Watch out girls....he's a cheerleader

Oh, Canon...your antics to play with the girls are already so apparent!

Love how the girls are bossing them around! Go Memphis!

Oh and just so you know, Aidan didn't drop him! What a good spot...I mean big brother!

Quinn's crazy antics

The weather is cooling off so I took the kiddos coat shopping...Quinn wanted to wear the jacket and hat the whole time we were in the store. She was sweating by the time we left....

Quinn loves her baby dolls and one of them has an outfit with an attached pacifier. Quinn has NEVER taken a pacifier......until now. She walks around with that outfit hanging from her mouth. The funniest part, she never has it in right and it's really small so she ends up drooling all around it. We will have to accidently lose that baby doll!

How Quinn likes to wear her bows....

Ok, this video is hilarious to me. About 2 months ago Quinn came up to me and pulled at her diaper. I asked her if she was poopy and she shook her head yes. I said, "What do you need?" and out of my sweet little girl comes this gremlin voice "BI-PER" I was rolling. Ever since then I have been trying to get it on video and I never can. I finally got it...in the car of all places! Enjoy the GREMLIN!

One good nap

I've said this before and I am sure I will say it again...kids sleep in the craziest positions. Sometimes when they are napping I sneak in just to look at them so quiet and peaceful. I snuck in this day and saw Quinn with her legs through the crib sides. Too funny!

If Quinn ran the world

Oh wait, I think she already does! This week has been busy and crazy (let's face it they all are, but this one even more so!) Yesterday I was trying to finish up pictures and Quinn was more than happy to entertain herself. The trouble is her new entertainment is to push chairs to where she wants something and then climb up to get into trouble. I spent the day following her around and moving the chairs back. Here are a few of her escapades yesterday!

She got to Canon's cup of chocolate milk before I could stop her....hence the huge spill on her shirt. Glasses upside down and shoes on the wrong feet are very common in this house.
I wasn't finished cleaning up the chocolate milk when I looked over and she was at the computer and had pushed who knows how many buttons, with my sunglasses on now (still upside down!) She is saying cheese.
She had opened the fridge (I think Canon helped her with that) and had not one but two chairs, because one is clearly not enough)
She wore herself out and wanted her glasses and her dog and a nap! And if you are wondering I did get the pictures finished up!

Birthday suit breakfast

I walked in the door from my long run a couple of Saturdays ago and the first thing I see is this.....


Breakfast in his birthday suit....nothing better than that!
