Flood Warning

Bath time....
...in the sink....
...for not much longer.
I'm tired of having to put the kitchen rug in the dryer after every one of Sam's floods, er I mean baths!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from Phil and Carrie

Mara, Emily, Becca, and Sam

Rain, rain...go away!

On a cold rainy day like today, the girls and sunshine in these pictures warm me up a little bit.

Motherhood Lesson #393

Check to make sure that hubby put the baby's diaper on straight BEFORE putting him in the johnny-jump-up. Be prepared to clean poopy off of toes if you don't.

Motherhood Lesson #392

Remember this lesson from last winter?
Well, I guess this could be an addendum to it.....
If you have a newly potty trained child and hear, "I'm done...", take your scarf off first.

Gobble, Gobble

Turkey cookies for Thanksgiving. The girls loved making them almost as much as eating them.

Mmmmmm, Cake!

Doesn't have much taste though!

So Lucky

...that God picked me to be the mommy of these three hoodlums...
...and that my husband is a fabulous photographer and is so good at catching these priceless memories.

I've never seen cuter pumpkins.

We've finally reached the end of my catch-up posts. I know most of you are getting ready for Christmas now, but how could you resist looking at these super cute pumpkins. I'm not sure what's cuter in this picture, Emily's hat or her "Seriously?" face or Becca's "Cheese" face, or Sam's butterball-ness!
We started our trick-or-treating at Nana and Papa's house. That poor cat....he gets abused by Mara about once a week and still hasn't learned to go hide.
Then we hit a few houses on our block.
And ended the night with some candy bowl diving.
If there are cuter pumpkins out there, I haven't seen them!

Fast Forward

How in the world did she go from this...
...to this....
...in what seems like overnight.
Seriously.
I'm afraid to take a potty break cause she might be going to college when I get back.

Look at those legs! I LOVE me some baby fat rolls....and this little man has plenty.
