Happy Halloween

Tonight we hosted a Halloween Party. I must say that we all had a very good time. The kids loved it! Well...most of it. The hayride was a little scary for some of them. Thanks to all who came and participated! We will definately make this an annual event. Hope everyone had a safe and happy halloween!

Carving of the Pumpkin

Roseola

Well it seems as though Saxon has gotten roseola. Don't know how or when, but he was apparently exposed to it 7~10 days before the rash broke out. SO, he was contagious last week when he was running fever....however, I attributed the fever to the 4 shots he was given at his well check-up last Monday. Bless his little heart, he hasn't slept well in 4 nights (neither have we) and has been so fretful during the day. Luck for me, I worked at school today so my mom dealt with him all day. But now it's sundown and he's all mine. :) Happy sleeping to all of you! Enjoy your rest ~ atleast you are getting some! LOL

The State Fair '08

Spencer, Sawyer & I enjoyed an afternoon at the fair on Wednesday. The kids had a blast, even though Sawyer was too small to ride anything. Thankfully my mom watched Saxon so he didn't have to beat the heat with us! ENJOY!

How dare you?

At approximately 7pm on Monday, Oct 13, my niece and I put a political sign in my front yard. It was far enough from the road that it was not considered "county property", so it was actually on my property. (Apparently political signs have to be on private property) Anywho, this morning at approximately 7:15 am, the sign was gone. How dare someone come into my yard, trespassing no less, and take something that does not belong to them?

You can take away my sign, but you cannot take away my vote. You may disagree with the candidates or what they stand for, but I urge you to NOT listen to the "driveby media" and seek for yourself what the candidates stand for and then exercise your right to vote.

Remember: NOV 4th VOTE!

Saxon at 4 months

Look at our little chunky dunk...

• 15 lbs 9.5 ozs
• 25 inches long
• 50th percentile for weight and height

He's graduated from his cradle into a porta crib (thanks Pam). And he doesn't miss a thing...especially me. Wherever I go in a room, he doesn't miss me. He is another sweet, sweet boy. But what should I expect right?!! :)

Sneaky Sawyer

Sawyer took the opportunity while I was pumping to sneak Saxon's pacifier and enjoy some private playtime. It was too cute not to take a picture of. Then of course I took on the Mommy role and explained he shouldn't.

This is a new reaction Sawyer has had whenever he eats some dairy products...not milk, not egg...so go figure. We will see how things progress. Looks like Trent is getting over his allergies and Sawyer may be getting them? Hopefully not!

Cookie Time

It's cookie time. The kids enjoyed some baking time last week. I must say, the cookies were delicious.
