Halloween!

We enjoyed a great night filled with trick or treating, lots of visiting, take out dinner, a haunted house, candy sorting, and candy eating of course! Even S. enjoyed his first lollipop!  The rain tampered off just in time for us to all get out and go trick or treating! That was an extra special "treat"!

ONE

My littlest guy turned ONE today! I can't believe that a year ago I was blessed with another healthy baby boy! What a year it has been! The joy that a baby brings to the home is such a special gift. I have enjoyed every moment of watching him grow! S. you are the biggest love. You smile constantly and you spread happiness to everyone you meet! There is never a day that goes by that someone doesn't say to me, "He is such a happy baby!" and he is!! Happy Birthday little guy!! I love you!!

Seven

My biggest guy is SEVEN!! I can't believe that! SEVEN!! He is getting so grown up and so independent, but will always be my baby!

Saturday!

Great day for catching up on stuff inside...cold, wet and yucky outside! Boys went to ice hockey. I stayed home while Sean napped, and cooked and cleaned. Then we took all the kids to Toys R Us to spend gift cards from their birthdays.  L came home with a variety of toys including a hockey figurine, pokemon cards, and kookie pens. J choose some SpongeBob cars, a football stand to kick a football off of, and a Sonic figure! All were happy! We enjoyed a great dinner at a local Thai food restaurant! Even the kids loved the Pad Thai and Chicken Satay! Yum!

Poop!

What is it with boys and poop??? Enough said.

Breakfast in Bed!

I can't even stand how cute this is!!!

L surprised me this morning and brought me breakfast in bed!! Love the tray and all!

Miracle

Yesterday, I finally met and held my cousin's little baby. Upon meeting her, a rush of emotions overcame me and tears poured from my eyes. I was holding one of God's miracles!! C was born at 24 weeks gestational age. She weighed just over one pound. At her young age she has endured more obstacles then some do in a lifetime. She is just beautiful. A picture of perfection with determination and courage! Every now and then I have a moment when I can feel God's presence and see Him. Looking into this small baby's big, brown eyes, you can see God and all of His greatness!!!
