October Stuff

Lydia is really cute!

Even when she won't nap.

I had craft night with my friend and we made these square pumpkins and the Happy Fall Y'all sign (on the back of the Let It Snow sign we made last Christmas time).

"Mommy, look at us! We are being cute! Take a picture!"

Lydia is still getting good at her afternoon naps. I do what I can to stay sane and have a little time alone to recoup every day.

These kiddos are pretty cute when Dallin doesn't attack Brianna with bites and pinches.

He was very excited for his train engineer costume!

During fall break the girls and I made a cute Halloween craft together. They did a great job on their parts!

We also made some delicious Pumpkin Banana Chocolate Chip Bread and muffins. Yum!

It snowed!

Maya and Brianna love dance class. 

I had a really rough day. I was texting Ryan (he hears me complain a lot - sorry, babe) and he said, "I think it would be nice for you to not have to make dinner tonight." He came home with McDonald's for the kids, Indian food from one of our favorite places for us, and this cake for me. He also rented a movie for us to watch after the kids went to bed. It was PERFECT and I was so grateful to him for pampering me when he knew I was struggling that day.

Lydia eats meals in her high chair now, instead of my lap. It's the best!

We inherited this train set from my parents. The kids, especially Dallin, love playing with it!

Dallin and I had a little playdate at the Children's Museum in town. Dallin and Liam were cute little buddies.

I took the kids to another pumpkin patch. It was super lame. The girls kept saying how bored they were and the owners were RIGHT THERE. It was embarrassing!! We did our best to enjoy a little time there anyway.

School pictures were a success this year!

We bobbed for apples. The kids thought it was totally hilarious, especially when I did it too.

More cute sibling moments!

I had the pleasure of participating in a production of Women at the Well. It was a wonderful experience and I am so grateful to have been a part of it.

We made brown bag apple pie after school!

Squishy face smile. My favorite!!

The primary kids earned a treat for getting all of the puff balls in the jar. (I am the music time leader right now.) Brianna helped me make Oreo pops. She was great at putting in the sticks and applying Halloween sprinkles for me.

Dallin loves nursery at church!

Looking pretty cool!!

I got to do some cute hair!
