Ohhh, she kills me! She turned 9 months while we were there.

Her cousin Kathleen (Betsy's daughter) is 3 months older than her. It is going to be a lot of fun when they play like Gabby and Jane

Decorating their Christmas tree.

Thanksgiving day

Betsy, Spencer, Grandpa Joe, Carlos, me, Robyn, and Chris... ready to eat!!!!

The infamous kids table. Oh, you don't see Jane? Didn't you know that girl hates food. Who knows where she was hiding so that we wouldn't force delicious food down her.

Fun with cousins

The first night they had a big slumber party and watched movies...they don't look so thrilled, but they were.

Jane and Gabby did everything together. I am so glad she put up with Jane as well as she did.

All the cousins that were there playing together.

The inching worm

This is what Sadie has been doing over the last weeks. I was sure it would turn into a crawl, but I believe she has decided that this is the best way to get around. It seems much harder than a crawl, it is like she is doing a dozen push ups in a row. We keep saying, "maybe by Thanksgiving she will be doing it right".

Groceries

Sorry I didn't take any pictures this week but I did a really cool thing. For the first time in my life I planned out a full weeks of meals and groceries. I usually head to the grocery store on a daily basis... it insures that we get out of the house everyday if nothing else. Well, it is getting more difficult to find time to go, because I love the girls nap times and am not willing to give them up. So with a huge list of groceries I got online to Vons.com and VERY easily shopped for my groceries. It was 10,000 times more convenient than actual grocery shopping (less than 5 minutes). The first time you do it there is no delivery charge. With my order the charge would have been only $6.95. Totally worth it if you ask me. I end up spending that much anyway on treats for Jane during the grocery trip to keep her happy (kidding, sorta). So when the guy delivered it they did an amazing job, even with the produce. Anytime I can I will be an online grocery shopper!

Sadie is 8 months now!

I don't even know what to say about these. I just want to squeeze her too tight!

New baby nephew David

I can't tell which personality he has yet, but he sure is handsome! He is the new son of my brother David and his wife Natasha

Actual Halloween pictures

Our neighbors went with us. This is James, isn't she adorable?

As my dear friend pointed out the other day... this is Insane Jane

Grandpa passed out candy at my door while we were trick or treating.

Marriage Protected

It is all over and it looks like it went well! This is a picture of Jane holding a sign at the intersection of a busy street in our town. It's a pic from my phone sorry for the quality.

Trunk or treat

For those of you who do not know, every year we do a trunk or treat in the church parking lot. The kids go from decorated trunk to trunk getting candy. It is a real safe way for them to have fun. I must admit I am not very good at Halloween. I love all the fun things associated with it, but I get anxiety about finding just the right costume, or getting creatively impressive. Plus, it's not nearly as fun for us to dress up as it was when we were single. Luckily, my sister Emily's mother in law Kathy has all those creative wonderful ideas just flowing and flowing. She made these costumes for Emily's girls years ago, and she sent them to me. So I can't take the credit for how cute they look (at least not the costumes).

She is an angel. Can you believe how great this costume is? Kathy is amazing, I think she has a website, which I will post a little later after I check to see what it is.

My Hippie, Angel, and Piglet

Sadie felt seriously inconvenienced by the whole thing. I will post more after actual Halloween pics are taken.

Lots of shots with the fancy new camera

Grandma and Sadie

At Natasha's baby shower. Her mom and sister were able to come down.

Katie gave her some really cute shoes. Natasha is my sister in law who I hand picked and introduced to my brother David. She is the best, can't wait for Baby David. He is scheduled to arrive Nov 10!!!!!

Just saying HELLO

Michael (my brother) and Sadie

shots with the new camera

Jane loves her sister, maybe a little too much.

These make me smile!

a new recruit

David and Natasha are due to have a baby soon, so I convinced her that this is a really great time to start a blog. I know that a lot of my family would enjoy a peak into their lives, so here it is.
