I thought this picture was so funny. Sadie is high centered in the dirt and peddling really fast. Her body posture totally made me think of the Wizard of Oz. You know when the lady who plays the Wicked Witch of the West is on her bike...."I'll get you Dorothy" she even has her "ruby slippers" on :) no i'm not comparing the Wicked Witch to Sadie... I would never .....

Few things about Maddie


Here is Maddie's hair in the morning:

Here is Maddie's hair after a rough day:
ok it's any evening really :)


Sadie shares a room with Maddie. Sometimes I guess Sadie thinks it's fun to torture me (that's what I see it as:) ) and wakes Maddie up. So she comes and hangs with us. Looks like she fits right in with her snacks :)

Nice Day

Some pictures of the kids playing outside. Maddie loves to be out front. Not in the back. She doesn't like that at all. She's already taking lessons from Zach. not good. She just likes to walk circles in the street.









How to get Ready for Halloween


So every year the kids and I put spider webs on the bushes. That is the extent of our halloween decor :). they love it. we never did it last year. maybe it was having a new baby, or the rain...whatever I forgot. Kyle hasn't. All year. In fact he made a book. Called it "How to Get Ready for Halloween". So last weekend we did spiderwebs...here are the highlights.

Acting "Scary"
Being Zombies
More Zombies .... thank you Scooby doo...and Zombie Island Movie
Sadie and Zach making Scary Faces
Zach can't take more pictures.....haha not sure what that is really

Kyle looks just like Ben in these.... it's kinda SCARY to me :)

I have done it

ok i have done it. i promised 25 tubes of toothpaste for $3 but I've done better
i bought 20 big bags of candy and MADE $10 you know the $3 size!
now we really will need those 25 tubes of toothpaste....
it's not all for us...trick or treaters....
and i'll just hide it in various places throughout the house and pull it out every once in a while. this should last forever right?! except those licorice all sorts. yum. i guess tomorrow won't be a good diet day :)
