Come eat dinner with us

Eating dinner with our 3 kids involves little eating sadly. It is a game of us guessing what their next request will be, while watching them goof off and spill, crunch, squeeze and discover the food on their plates. It is however entertaining.

This is actually breakfast. Kate always wants what someone else has.


Thanksgiving in Idaho

It was cold in St. Anthony... too cold to get a picture of tube rides!

Grandpa Randy's famous Micky Mouse pancakes

Grace had a lot of fun playing with Cheri's daughter Brooklyn

Kid's table

I wish I would have taken a picture of the pies. Melanie made chocolate and chocolate peanut butter cup, and Barbs had pecan, pumpkin, apple, berry and german chocolate pies. They also baked a turkey and a ham for us pigs. We loved staying and eating all the leftovers.

Jake's 1!

I have a very strong bond with Jake. He wants to be held often and I don't mind. He has a high pitch scream and instead of annoying me, it makes me laugh. He spins in a circle on his bum when he hears music, smiles all the time, and I just love to be around him. He snuggles me more than my girls. Men, they are such babies from the beginning;) Some of our favorite pics:

Happy Birthday Kate

Kate turned 2 Nov. 2nd. She is so cheesy. She loves to get noticed and makes the cutest scrunched up smiley face when I catch her being naughty. She loves gum, Dora, saying "oh no!" "mmm yummy" and is so good at taking naps. Sometimes she will even ask to go to bed. It's her passion for the pacifier. She only gets one in her crib, and now that she's 2 I should really cut it off, but I can't! When I put her down she pops one in her mouth and arranges the others neatly in her hands, then shoves her stuffed monkey in the corner and uses it as a pillow. She can wake up and play for an hour, just talking to herself. She's a little pinter with huge blue eyes.

We got a babysitter and just took Kate out to the Park and McDonalds:

Earlier in the day she insisted on getting this bandaid on her nose
