Thanksgiving...

Thanksgiving is a wonderful time of year to ponder on the many blessings in my life.

At the top of my blessing list are these 5 guys...I feel pretty blessed!

Crew's 3...

Crew is a determined, energetic, strong willed, and happy little boy.

Favorite Foods...Anything with SUGAR, cinnamon rolls, chocolate milk, and peanut butter crackers.

This last year has been a struggle with Crew and his eating habits. We are hoping this next year he will learn to try new foods and become a better eater.

Favorite Show...Mickey Mouse Clubhouse

Favorite Movie...Cars and The Mater Movie

Favorite Toy...Cars (especially cars from the Disney Cars Movie)

Favorite Friends...Stockton and DJ

Crew is very territorial about "HIS" toys

Is finally potty trained. It took him awhile to figure out how to go #2 on the toilet.

Crew gets to start preschool in January and he is so excited.

Crew is our child that keeps us on our toes each and everyday. We hope his year as a 3 year old brings him happiness, good health, and he will learn lots of new things.

Cannon's Poster...

Cannon submitted a poster for a bully rally that was put on for our school district this year. He came up with an idea for his poster and worked hard to make it look good. He submitted his poster and we received a call from the counselor at school saying Cannon had won a prize (honorable mention) for his poster. We attended the bully rally and Cannon was so excited to see his poster hanging on the wall of the building.

Creed is 11 months...

Can't believe we are one month away from celebrating this little guy's first birthday. My favorite thing about Creed is that he is an eater. He will not refuse food and will eat anything and everything we give him.

-just broke his foot tooth on the bottom and working on the other bottom tooth (my kids all started teething around 11 months)

-is really close to walking...has taken up to 12 steps on his own

-we took the gate down on our stairs and he loves to teeter on the top stair. it looks like he is going to fall right down the stairs and it scares me to death.

-he sleeps from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.

-he gets into everything, but he is our little angel and we love him to pieces!

Halloween...

The highlight of halloween this year was watching crew trick or treat. he could not believe that all he had to say was trick or treat to get one of his favorite things in the world 'CANDY'. colton thought he was old enough to go trick or treating alone with his friends in our neighborhood. he had a great time and got lots of candy. cannon went trick or treating with his friends for awhile and then was my little sidekick for the rest of the night. cannon and i went to a few fun houses together. greg got into it this year and wore a scary mask to answer the door and had fun scaring the trick or treaters. crew loved scaring the kids with his daddy. a few of other fun things we did...

-ihop for dinner

-attended a neighborhood halloween party

-watched a scary movie

-a fun dinner at a friends house before trick or treating

-homemade donuts & hot cocoa
