Twins?

This is my sweet new niece Millie Sue who we all think looks just like Charlie Kate. They were meant to be twins. What do you think?

What we have been up to...

It feels like we have been moving non-stop for the past month but nothing really great to talk about. Just normal life stuff I guess. Alex had spirit week last week and we did her hair crazy for crazy hair day. She said her head hurt by the time she got home. I should have taken a after we took her hair out shot because she looked like Shirley Temple. Alex is doing amazing in school, we had parent teacher a couple of weeks ago and her teacher said Alex is a child that every teacher would love having, she's smart, easy to like and picks things up really fast. She has started to read and reads things everywhere we go. Soccer ended a couple of weeks ago and it was so much fun to see Alex get more confident from last year. We might have a future Mia Hamm in the house.

Jake got his first official Transformer this last week for being super duper good during family pictures. He has been asking for one for a long time and now that he has one he won't let go of it, church might get tricky tomorrow. Jake is loving preschool and is learning the funniest songs and can count to ten in Spanish.

Now this little stinker is teething and has nothing to show for it but grouchy, no nap, drooling days. She has been on a strike from sleeping for the last week and we can't seem to keep her excited about anything for too long. She is still the angel baby but just with a little attitude.

Look at our grass Grandpa!! It's green!!

We are looking forward to Thanksgiving this year, we will be on our own plus my sister Cris. We hope to not burn or under cook the turkey. We have SO SO much to be grateful for this year and can't wait to celebrate our thankfulness.

Half Birthday...

Half a year already!? Where does the time go? We have SO SO much fun with this gal, she is the sunshine in our house. The other two kiddos just eat her up! She is sitting up now and loves to roll all over the house. She is eating baby food, loves the green stuff, I have to sneak in some fruits. We are all SO in love with her, we try to soak up every second. I know how fast time flys by, it seems like Alex and Jake were just this age and look at them now! We can't wait for more of the fun milestones ahead.

I got this fun ruffle bum onsie at a What Women Want expo. The headband came with it, we aren't so sure about it, kinda looks like a flower growing out of her head :)

Halloween 2009

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays! It's a great way to kick off the holiday season. I LOVE matching the girls up and when I found these t's on super sale I couldn't resist!

This picture is of everyone before their Halloween parties at school

Ever since Alex's first "dress up" Halloween, I have been waiting for someone to come around to wear this cute ladybug costume. It's one of my favorites!
Charlie is in flight!

These guys weren't too happy with me to be taking a picture right before we headed out to party! Can't you feel the love in their expressions?

My Cowboy and Indian! Thanks Grandma T for the awesome costumes! They both were complimented all night!

Right before we circled the neighborhood for our loot!

LOVE LOVE Halloween!! This year was no exception, we had a great time!

On to Thanksgiving!
