Go Mally go!!!

I know this isn't Mallory but I had to throw it in there. I should've done its own post, but oh well!! BUSTED!!!! I came in from the other room and heard mmmm...mmmm..mmmm. He had gotten into the cereal and poured it out on the floor. It's moments like these that he is lucky to be a baby and so cute! Don't look at my messy pantry!

Pedal, pedal, pedal is all I would yell out to her!

Off she goes trying to ride her bike. Its gonna take some time to get the balance thing down.

Gettin started on her bike. Thanks to the balance buddy (The bar attached to her bike. I recommend this for everyone teaching someone to ride, it's great) she has some help!

Pumpkin Carving

So the pictures are out of order... so sorry! We had a great time carving our pumpkins. The girls loved getting their hands in the slime.

Scoopin out the goop!

Helping the girls get all the seeds out. I remember this as a kid and my mom helping us get all the left over stuff out of there and it had to be clean.

Hayden loved the pumpkin because he thought it was a ball and if its round he loves it.

Getting ready to carve pumpkins!

Happy Halloween

Disgusting I know, but I love to make a fun Halloween dinner for the kids. So this year the menu was.... mummy pizzas, string cheese fingers, apple "bites", witches' brooms and jello pumpkin. I swear I get more excited than they do. I just remember my mom making fun dinners on Halloween so I have to keep up the tradition. It was fun. I want to do a mixed up dinner sometime (thanks Chels) but this year I felt like they were a little young.

Gorilla costume........... $10 3 bags of candy............. $8 seeing Hayden in his costume for all of 3 minutes.........priceless!
Mr. Hayden was a gorilla and absolutely hated this costume even though he looked so cute. He really would pull at it like crazy so he didn't last long. But it was hilarious!

My OCD was coming out really bad when my kids did not want to be anything coordinating this year. Dave said I had to let them be what they wanted. As hard as it was for me, I did it. Aubs wanted to be Dora, so Dora she was. But it was really cute and she got a lot of comments on the hair.

Mallory insisted on being something that wasn't to hot! After trying for weeks to get her to be other things she was determined to be an Indian (again)! [Dave insists she's a "Native American"]. She still looked so cute in the costume and it was a warm night so it's good she was something cool.

And finally, the pink flamingo. Chandler likes flamingos, so when she saw this costume it was a must for her. It was quite awkward but she pulled it off. She likes to be the different one. Go ahead and keep laughing because she knows people kept laughing at her.
