Our Week in Pictures

During our Classical Conversations Class...We disected owl pellets. The girls absolutely LOVED it!

 

 Kate had a great check up at the dentist. No cavities and the discovery of two loose teeth! She's over the moon excited that she can start wiggling them.

 We had a nice Halloween morning at CBS, minus Emma who has been fighting a tummy ache off and on all week
 

 Imagine this: 10, 5 & 6 year olds, 10 tin whistles & 1 teacher trying to hold it all together :) At CC the girls are learning music theory. It's going to be a long "semester."

 One night the kids made their own dinner. They thought it was a blast and I actually felt like the pre- pregnancy me!

 We've been working on tying shoes! The girls are both just about masters of this new skill!

 We have been spending as much time outside as possible! It's sunny and 70 and beautiful with golden yellow leaves on most of the trees surrounding our house. Loving these fall days after a really, REALLY long summer.

 Leaf people were created

 & pumpkins were painted!

And we had a fabulous night trick-o-treating in a great neighborhood that was amazingly kid friendly. 

Happy Halloween

 From a bunch of crazies!

Birthday Review {in pictures}

A great birthday celebrating Reed turning 3!
He got a big boy McQueen bed, McQueen undies, a McQueen book {recorded by Grammy} and a fishing pole! The McQueen birthday cake will come in about a week when we have a small party with Grandma Connie, Aunt Misty & 6 cousins.

Happy Birthday Little Man!

It is hard to believe that you are 3 today!
Your 2nd birthday in Oklahoma dude! And today will be all about you and your favorite, Lightning McQueen {including your birthday cake}
You mean the world to Daddy & I.You are funny and rough and ALL BOY!
You love dirt and going down the slide face first and always pick up a stick whenever outside.
I'm sorry that it took us at least 6 months to figure out that you struggle with gluten! I'm thankful you are feeling better, but man... it shouldn't have taken us so long to get you healthy.You love to read books and to look at books and frankly, you love to throw books {must be the "all boy" thing}.

You have some pretty awesome dance moves {however they remind me of daddy's :)}
You have a love, love relationship with TV: Phineas and Ferb, Dinosaur Train & Mythbusters being your favorites. The only bad thing about TV for you is that your Momma doesn't let you watch it all day long like you really want to do!
Your favorite word is awesome {I hear you often say, "I awesome!"}
You're learning letters and can count to 11 . . . smarty pants!
We're excited to watch you learn and grow this year.

Happy Birthday buddy!
We love you to the moon and back.
