cute kiddos

Sometimes I impress myself. I made a post when Emilee was 7 months old (August 2009) that included pictures of her in the laundry basket. Well, that was mostly forgotten until a week ago. I was doing laundry and lugging Logan around with me, and then it hit me. I need a picture of him in the laundry basket!!!! Lucky for me, Logan obliged. Here he is.


(I think he is SOOOOOO HANDSOME!!! Look how his eyes match the blue in his shirt. I love it!)


After the photo shoot, I got on the blog to find out when I'd done pictures with Emilee. Pretty darn close. Logan is 6 months old. Sooooooo, for comparison...Enjoy!











Crafty

I decided that the outside of our house needed some dressing up since our lawn is dead, and the easiest thing for me to come up with was a holiday wreath. When I went to find one, I didn't want to spend a lot of money, so I decided to make my own. It really wasn't much cheaper than buying one already made. Actually, I used pine cones that Emilee had found and brought home so that kept the cost down (hehe). But, this gave me experience and forced me to be creative. It also helped me ignore my children for a while.


It took longer than I thought, too. We'll see if I'm willing to make a Christmas wreath or if I break down and just buy one.

Halloween

Here are a few pictures the day before when we carved our pumpkins. We had our friends over for the night . . . the dog belongs to them.







Emilee was forced to be Vanna White with the pumpkins.



And, here are our costumes. We could not pass up the chance to do Goldilocks and the Three Bears this year.














monkeys

Here are a few pictures of our little monkeys.




Since they both have mokey PJs, we couldn't pass up the chance for pictures.
