Fall totschool

We went on a walk through the neighborhood to get leaves and flowers for a totschool project. I love this pic so much..... can't you tell how much she loves him.... and the camera :)

Picking flowers takes lots of concentration!

Madison joined the fun a little later.... pretty good pic of 3 toddlers!

Here is Izzy's project- we stuck our treasures on contact paper- she seemed to really like it!

One of Izzy's favorite things to do at home is "bugs"- it is a discovery toy that works on matching colors and types of bugs....

Gotta love the hat!

We made puppets- well I pretty much made the puppet and Izzy tried to kill it.

More Halloween Fun....

Although as my buddy Katie says I am 19 months pregnant... we have still been out and about :) When you have an active toddler- sitting around just doesn't cut it. AND I would go crazy too! So yes I am still pregnant... no progress- but we have been having lots of fun!

A friend organized a fun day at the park with costumes, crafts and cookies..... the cookie got frosted and then got eaten..... Mommy trait! Izzy wore her other costume- a pumpkin!

There were bubbles which Izzy loves to chase.

Group shot... hey what can you expect??

For Halloween I was a "bun in the oven" and Tim was the Baker :) hehehehe I think he did a great job making our outfits!

We had a cookout in our new neighborhood and it was a great way to meet alot of the neighbors! Not to mention good food :) We took Izzy trick or treating and she had a blast. She loved to eat smarties (which is good because I hate them) and suckers. I tried to divert most of the chocolate :) It was a blast and Izzy was worn out for 2 days.

Hopefully the next post you see will be Piper's birth announcement!!!

Sneak Peek at Fall Photos......

Oooooo Got your interest now huh???? More to come......

Fall fun begins!

I love the fall weather we have been having!! It is so nice to put on long sleeves and sweatshirts :) I also love all the fun fall things that we can go and do. There are tons of pumpkin patches, Halloween activities and hayrides! This week we went to Jamestown United Methodist Church's pumpkin patch and hayride with MOPS. I THOUGHT that the evite said to dress the kiddos in their Halloween costumes... apparently I made that up :) OOPS! Oh well.... so I told Katie and Izzy and Nathan wore their costumes. They were insanely adorable and had alot of fun!

Sweet hugs....

One of our best pictures yet :)

We have also been going to the park alot- trying to get in a few more days before it gets too cold. Daddy came to meet us on this day and Izzy was happy to see him. This is how they talk when she is riding on his shoulders. I LOVE that they have such a good relationship :)

A few weekends ago my big brother Matt and his wife Emily came with their little girl Penny. Izzy wasn't too sure of her but was very interested. She refused to smile for pictures but at least she didn't try to hurt Penny!

Isn't she a cutie??

We can't wait for more exciting fall activities......with pictures I am sure :)

Boy have we been busy!!!!

As the title says- we have been BUSY! We bought a new house and moved, I had some issues with preterm labor- got put on bed rest, and life still goes on chasing an ever growing ever running toddler! It has been a whirlwind the past few weeks but we have been enjoying it all- well except the bed rest part! All is well with baby Piper now- I am off bed rest, although I am still supposed to be taking it easy and will not be going back to work until after she comes! So lets see what we have been getting into lately.....

Bowling with the Wilson's & Lineberry's

I love the excitement!

I love the look on his face.....

We went on a farm hayride out in Summerfield. It was awesome!

There were many stops on the hayride to get off and pet/chase the animals around :)

Izzy loves goats.....

My best friend- ain't she cute???

There was a hay maze- side note- so I thought it would be bales of hay stacked up really high so you couldn't see.... hehehehehe- didn't have any clue this is what hay looked like when it was growing. Anyways the kiddos had a blast running..... then they got hot and tired..... as did the mommies. I ended up putting Izzy on my shoulders and cutting through the maze to get out! I know I know I cheated!

Izzy riding a fake deer that was about to fall over....

Kissing the fake deer.....

Loving on Colton :)

Look how big!!!!

For my birthday Katie and I went to the fair... I was on bed rest at the time so Katie made me rent a motorized wheelchair to drive around...... it wasn't so bad. We had a great time at the fair- ate lots of good food and the kiddos rode some rides. Izzy's favorite (which I have no picture of) was the pony ride. She was so excited and did great!

She also liked the carousel

And the BIG SLIDE!

So now you see..... we have been busy! Hoping life will calm down a little before Piper comes!
