"Frog in her throat"

Tonight while eating supper, Jayden got a very serious look on his face and exclaimed "You want to know what is really gross? Anna (one of his school friends) got a frog in her throat!". Holding back my laughter, I asked him how it happened. He said "I don't know dad! She must have had her mouth open really big and the frog just jumped in!".

Later I had to explain to him what "frog in the throat" really means. So funny.

No more cribs!

My how time moves on. This week we sold one crib, and the other one will be gone soon. The girls are moving on to their new "big girl" beds. We thought we needed to get a few final pictures of them in their cribs for the last time. I thought they could be in their crib's for five or six more years, but Amber disagreed...... :)

Happy 4th Birthday Andrew!

We decided on a Curious George cake made with cocoa pebbles on the outside for Andrew's birthday. He LOVES cocoa pebbles! It's not my best creation, but he loved it.

We love you Buzzy!

Trick or treat

We had Jayden as an army guy, Andrew as Buzz Lightyear, Macy and Mariah as M&Ms, and then Mike (who just couldn't resist joining in the fun) as a dog! Macy was sick with a fever, but she didn't want to miss out and had to have her M&M shirt on for the evening.

Or maybe Mariah is an army girl.

And Buzz a dog :) He did answer the door a couple times with this on.

They had a lot of fun first getting their own candy from family and friends and then handing out candy to the later trick or treaters at our house.

Carving pumpkins

All ready to carve! The boys drew faces on their pumpkins and then I helped carve them out.

Of course we had help from the girls too! :)

And the results . . .

Happy fall!
