Halloween

We have been working on letting Paige cry it out at night. We would have started earlier, but her doctor told us not to let her cry too long because her voice has been scratchy for months. Well I think her voice is getting slightly better so I decided that it is time for her to fall asleep on her own. Well she is one stubborn little girl. We have a picture of Parker just like this here.
This is from our trunk or treat last night. We were lucky that our family could come celebrate with us.
Steve was a dragon in a castle (Pictures below of making the castle), I am the wicked Queen from Snow White, Paige is Snow White, Kiersten is Cinderella, my Mom is the hunter from Snow White, and Parker is a knight that kills the dragon in the castle (aka Steve).

We went to the zoo with my Mom a couple of days ago. Here are some pictures from it. Paige was so tired by the end of the day.
Parker's preschool had a Halloween party this week. They all got to dress up in their costumes and Parker won most creative costume in his class. Here he is with my friend Ashleigh making a Halloween craft. They even had a bouncy house at the party.
We carved our pumpkins this week and we were lucky that Steve's mom was in town to help out. Parker didn't want to touch anything inside of the pumpkin because it was yucky. He even broke down in tears. He got over it as you can see. Paige's was the ghost and Parker's is the face.





Here are the kids making the castle that Steve wore for his Halloween costume.

New update!!

Height 27 1/4- 94%

Steve old roommates had a Halo Reach party on Saturday which happened to be his brother Garrett's birthday. Since they were both going I decided to make a Halo cake. My sister Amanda helped me make it. You can see a mention of Garrett's birthday in the next picture.


Last Wednesday was his other brother's birthday, Jordan. We took him to Dave and Busters for dinner and some games.


Every September all of the girls in Steve's family get together for women's conference and we go up to Pinetop, AZ for a craft fair and watch conference together. This year the boys got together also and did a fishing trip in Pinetop. We met up afterwards and drove home together.
Just a cute picture of Paige and Parker.
Parker's preschool did a field trip to Petsmart and I was able to go with them. Here are a few pictures I took.
