Pumpkin Time!!!

Our neighbors got some extra pumpkins in their garden so they let the kids come over tonight and pick out their own pumpkins.....the kids were very excited...

Landonn chose this one....

This is the one that Josie chose.....

The kids thought they would carry them home themselves....



I guess we needed some help....

Washing them off.....


The funny part is when Joe and Linda planted these seeds in the spring they were advertised as cantaloupes.....oooooops!!!!


Thank you Joe and Linda.....

Bowen's first soccer game

Today Bo had his first soccer game....he was very excited and did very well....he was very involved in the game and showed great energy and did not give up until the end....I don't think a score was kept per say, since they are kindergartners but he felt like he won.....

Proud Mumma with her boy......


Bo throwing the ball in to play....Marla had him wear the red hat so we knew which one he was...great idea....

He threw the ball in and ran right to the goal to wait for the ball....it never quite made it down that far but boy oh boy Bo was ready.....

Big man walking off the field....



Bowen's support/cheering section....we were glad we made it.....

Fist Day No way

So today was Landonn and Pip's first day at Creative Christian Nursery School....this was a hard day for the mummas....


When I look at my son.....this is what I see.....


Here is (is it "here is" or "here are?" any help from you english people would be greatly appreciated) Jenn and I as we were leaving our boys....we did get over it quite quickly but Kellan and the kids at my house did not understand where Landonn and Pippy were....


When I went to get Landonn he and the teacher were very involved in a conversation/argument about whether or not Landonn would come back....he didn't seem to think he needed another day of school....I think I made such a big deal about the first day that I forgot to tell him there were many more to follow....

Not for the faint of Heart

All right.....so I think we can all agree that there are some days that are better than others....this is not one of the better days....

Mikey had had a dry diaper and in like a half an hour he had wet through the diaper, his shorts, a doubled up blanket through to a feather pillow onto my couch....not a big deal....I've dealt with this before, within 10 minutes Mikey was changed laundry started and couch cleaned....

Once peace and order had been restored I went into the playroom to pick up while everyone was sleeping and I smelled a horrible poopy smell....everyone was sleeping so where on earth was the smell coming from....I came upstairs only to sense the smell was getting progressively worse the farther up the stairs I got....here's why....Gage Paul had pooped, then wriggled out of his diaper and had proceeded to play with/eat his poop and smear it all over himself and the playpen.....NICE!!!! the smell was so bad that it woke Landonn up who then woke Hunter up by saying "Hunter get up....I smell gage!!!" I smelled it downstairs in the playroom because the horrific smell had wafted down the register.....

I tell ya what....today is a day that I question whether the decision to be a stay at home mom was the best one!?!?!?!?

I must go shower.....Bye
