It's the Great Pumpkin

It was SO rainy the day we had planned to go pick out our pumpkins.

We usually spend a few hours at the pumpkin patch, but with all the rain

and MUD we decided to just pick out pumpkins and then head home.

 Cutler liked gutting the pumpkin, and wanted an Alien pumpkin with 4 eyes.

{forgot to snap a photo of the front of the pumpkins}

 I love these potato head pumpkin faces that my mom sent in the mail for the kids.

This is my kind of carving...

Monster Cookies

Emily made these cute Monster Cookies, so I had her send me the recipe. One rainy morning, the kids and I made them. Kapri was potty training, so she cooked in her undies.

 They were horribly messy and delicious

 Cutler tried to see how much candy he could fit on his cookie.

 Even Jon made a masterpiece...

 We made a ton, and wanted to take some to our friends, but no one was home,

so we had to eat them all ourselves :)

It's Started

We checked Cinderella out from the library.

Now I can't get this girl to wear pants. Who can blame her? Dressing up is way more fun.

I hated jeans, and didn't wear them till I was in Junior High.

(One of my issues was my height, and they didn't make jeans long enough back then)

Riding your Bike Is fun to do!

Now that Cutler has learned to ride his bike, it is all he wants to do.

We go outside rain or shine and ride. Kapri love to ride too.

This was the day he learned to start all by himself. He can ride his bike completely solo now, and is getting quite adventurous. He likes to ride up into the driveway, and off the curb.

He also likes to race the older neighbor kids. Which usually ends in a crash with tears and bruises.

Two Wheels

Cutler is now cruising on 2 wheels!

It was a workout getting him up and going.

{Imagine a 6 month pregnant women running up and down the street}

We live on a busy street {not car busy, but kid busy}.

I told them he was learning, and they may want to move out of his way.

You will see him run into a few kids... a few times.
Cutler asked me if I could mail this video to all of his Grandma's and Grandpa's so they could see.

Soccer Season

Soccer is Cutler's sport. He runs hard, and comes home sweaty.

Every week he improves, and is excited to play.

Cutler's favorite part about soccer? "Kicking it in the goal"

My Bebe

I know I frequently bring this up. But why do kids have to grow up so fast?

We have pulled out all the newborn girl clothes to start getting ready for our new arrival.

{I can't believe I am 25 weeks already}

Kapri has claimed them all as hers. She even tried trying them on.

Most days I wonder...How am I going to juggle 3 kids, work, and life?

Sweet moments like this make it all worth it.
