first hair cut

Isn't this boy a cutie! This is how he came in from playing out in the back yard one day, yummy dirt! I put him on the counter and pulled the camera out and he started saying "eese, eese" (cheese), too cute!!

We finally broke down and gave him his first hair cut! This is a before picture

This is before from the back, look how long it is back there!

And here is after.

Shaun did it all by himself. I think he did a really good job for his first hair cut on a 1 year old. I think Parker is looking pretty handsome!!

Halloween fun

We have had a lot of fun with Halloween this year already! Here we are decorating our pumpkins. I got these kits on sell and thought we would try them out this year. I wasn't sure at first if it was going to be as fun as digging the pumpkin seeds out and getting our hands all messy, but the kids loved it and they love looking at their pumpkins!!

Isn't she so cute!

Here we are at the local pumpkin patch, they both loved it!! I couldn't believe how expensive the pumpkin's were there though. We bought a little one for a dollar, but the bigger ones were like 10 dollars (I don't think so). So we ended up getting ours at walmart.

We tried to get them both looking at the camera AND smile at the same time, but that is like asking for a miracle.

I found this cute design for a bat in a magazine, Janalee had fun making these. Of course she asked to make a pink bat, who am I to say no to that :)

Janalee's 3rd Birthday

I can't believe my baby is 3!! She is such a cutie!! I love her to pieces! My parents and sister Jamie and her hubby were in town so we got to have a family birthday party. Yea! She was loving all of the attention, if you can imagine that :) Well, she got totally spoiled by everyone! Both kids love having new toys to play/fight with. It was so much fun to have everyone here, I miss them all already. I have more pictures from my parent's trip here, but I never remembered to bring my camera. Luckily grandma saved the day and brought her's, so as soon as she sends them to me I will share them all with you.

Here she is opening presents!! (can you tell she is excited?!)

Here is Grandpa Bible watching (and sometimes sleeping) while she is opening her presents.

Here she is sporting her new shades

Here is the princess and the frog dress she got from Aunt Jamie and Uncle Josh. She loves this thing and has been wearing it on and off for the past week.

Shaun really wanted to get her a bike so we found a pretty good deal on this princess bike. Both her and Parker love this thing. She wants Daddy to take her out to ride her bike all the time. She is starting to get better at it and can petal several times in a row before she gets stuck. Parker loves to climb on it and pretend her is riding.

What a combo: princess dress, princess bike, princess helmit, and tap shoes.

We love our big girl!!!
