Updates...well, one anyway!

Jakey has a new fake laugh! He sounds like Patrick and has a big space in his teeth like Spongebob! Silly baby. I will do more updates when I have some time this week. G'night!

I guess we're meant to be!

I liked this quote on Pinterest, but the picture that was behind it was strange. So...I made my own! It sort of cuts off the image (I guess too big?) But, if you click on it you can get the whole thing!

Maybe I'll "pin it" and see how many pins it gets. LOL!

The End of October

Welp...it's over. I can't believe how quickly it went! Seems like I was just worrying about what to do for Ezra's birthday, and now suddenly we are onto November. So, here is how our October ended: Ezra recieved so many kind, wonderful gifts for his birthday. This one was from Grandma, who was kind enough to let him decidce on his own gift. Funny choice in my opinion, but he loved it!

Grandpa Sorensen has started the tradition of doing something special with each grandkid for their birthday. Ezra got to ride in his truck, and go get macaroni and cheese fries! He was pretty excited. Here he is waiting for grandpa to come.

And they are off...

Grandpa Ward gave us 2 of his huge pumpkins from his garden this year for the boys for Halloween. Daddy and Ezra had a good time carving them. I read up on cooking the seeds, and had I followed the recipe i think they would have been pretty good. However....I just dumped in the salt instead of measuring and they were way too salty! Better luck next time.

For Halloween, we attended 2 trunk-or-treats and did our own trick-or-treat on Monday night. We were so worn out from the weekend that we literally only went up one street with Ezra on Monday. He was "treated" very well though, and has quite the stash. Here are our cute kiddos (and one of us):

As of late, I have needed to return to work for more hours. Darrell and I have been working opposite schedules, sort of, so we can take care of the kids. I take the boys with me in the morning to teach pre-school. Then I come home and do lunches and naps and whatever house work I can before Darrell gets home to take over. Then I go back to work for another 3 hour shift. This puts me home sort of late, so Darrell has had to really be Mr. Mom. Some days he totally has to make dinner. (Like really make something from a recipe!) He was so proud of himself (as he should be, because I am actually quite impressed myself!) that he took pictures! He had to get pretty creative with Jakey and his bottle too!

AND FINALLY...my little boy is really growing up. He got a hold of the Toys R Us catalog on Sunday and started circling all the things he wanted for Christmas. Ugh. Hpefully we can get him SOMETHING he circled.
