Fine! If I can't have another baby...

Yep, cause I don't have enough craziness in my life! Meet Chloe, our newest edition to our family. She's about a year old. She's a Corgi/Rat Terrier mix. She's super sweet, but such a puppy! Totally into everything! She thinks all the toys in our house are hers! I've caught her dragging a stuffed frog, prancing with a pink sun bonnet and ripping the hair out of my daughters Barbie (dont tell her)!! Oh my...what have I gotten myself into!

Brace Face

Well, it finally happened! My 10 year old got his braces! We've known it was going to happen for a few years now. Must take after his mom as his teeth were horribly crooked! He's well on his way now! He even gets to choose what color bands he gets to wear every month! I never got to do that! Ahhh...these kids these days don't know how good they have it!

The Dance

Gulp...this one chokes me up! Its my husband and our little Em. Its their first "father daughter" dance. I cant bear to think about when we have to do that for real! Sigh...

Halloween Fun

Who doesn't LOVE carving pumpkins? All the kids got into it this year, even little Em. Sam, the oldest, even figured out how to carve the word "Boo" into his pumpkin! Show off! I think they turned out great!

Mr. Pickles has a problem...

The kids bus got stuck in the ditch across from our house. They initially sent a pewny little truck to pull it out! Then the bus driver, Mr. Pickles, and the owner of the woosy truck sat inside of it for awhile until they decided they needed something bigger, like Big Blue here! Big Blue just hooked a chain to it and hauled her right out of that ditch! Mr. Pickles was very happy and I was glad to get back inside where it was warm!

Remember summer time?

As I'm writing this its snowing outside! So, lets think of warmer times! The boys totally loved their "jumpy slide" while Em and Joe preferred to chill out in their pool! I miss summer! I'll never say, "Its too hot!!" again, I promise!

Em's birthday!

Hard to believe my precious baby girl is 2! Where does the time go? She had a blast on her birthday of course. She wanted to try every outfit on as soon as she opened it! Too cute! Sigh...I hate to see her grow up...  Oh yea, this is posted way late! Her birthday is in August!
