New pics from the last week or so. My attempt to get a fall pic of the kids, which was not good. Playing at the house. We bought Matt a airplane ride for his Birthday but he has been waiting till the leaves change to go. So him and Caleb(his brother) went last weekend. The pilot let the boys ride down the runway. They loved it !!
Gracie is in her own room now, we moved her out of the bassinet when she started sleeping through the night. She is doing great . Matt found this little frog outside and brought him in for the boys to play with. Everytime they touched him he hopped away.

Pumpkin Patch and new pics

We went to the pumpkin patch last week with our mops group and had a blast ! The boys loved it they had so much to do with all the animals, fields to play in and of course the tractor ride to the pumpkin field. Which it took them forever to pick the best pumpkin.
I was getting out winter stuff and they ask for the mittens and hats , I came in the living room and they were wrestling with them on and they said "it is my fight clothes " ?? I have no clue where this came from . But it was cute.
We have been going potty this last week and they are doing good, I think they finally get the idea. I cant wait !!
Enjoy the pics

Gracie's 2month, Birthday and Election

Gracie had her 2 month check up , she was 12.8 pounds (81 %), 22 7/8 length (61 %). She is doing great and obviously a little pig !!

The boys had a wonderful party. We had the big party at the park Saturday. Thanks to all our friend's who came to help celebrate. And for all our new stuff ! Then Sunday Paw and Maw had another little party and gave them the power wheels trucks which they love. They did surprising good driving them. And today Tuesday we had our party here. Melissa and Kayla were here to help us celebrate. This is all so hard for me to grasp that they are already 3 !! Time fly's. Enjoy the pics

Also I want to urge everyone to GO VOTE !!! This election is so very important for us as Christians and we that stand on what America has for the last hundreds of years. But if Obama gets elected things are going to change for the worse.. For heaven sake he wont even pledge allegiance to the American flag ! And that is just the tip of the ice burg .. So please educate your self of the 2 candidate's and vote.

Update

Time is flying by. The boys party is this weekend, so we have been baking today cookies and cupcakes. We went to pumpkin town this past weekend just a fall festival in town. The boys went on a wagon ride , got a face painting, decorated pumpkins and played some games, It was a great family day. We got out the play gym for Gracie and she LOVES it, she kicks and makes noises everytime we put her in it. But the boys wont stay out of it.The are so crazy ! She is getting so big, we go for her 2 month check up in the morning. Will update soon with birthday pics.
Have a good weekend

Pics from the last couple weeks

We have been busy ! Here are some new pics.. Enjoy

After one last batch of apple butter, I am finally done canning. My apples are almost gone I am drying the rest of them. The boys love horses these are next to my mom and dads house. They helped me make cookies last week they love to help in the kitchen. We have already eaten all the corn our garden produced so we bought 6 dz to freeze the boys and I shucked corn for 1 1/2 hours. These night are getting cold fast.You can see my attempt to get a good pics of all 3 kiddos, hard work ! We went to Hunters Football game and the boys loved watching, but they were scared of Hunter in his uniform. Then we went over to Matt and Kayla's for a party and bond fire. When I told them we were going to a fire party, Jonathan said "no we cant go fire is not safe" ! So we had to explain this was a safe fire. They had a blast. They "camped out" in the floor with Kayla at nana's when we got home they are still asking to camp out. Life is so fun with them. Gracie is doing great ! She is smiling and becoming more vocal. The boys 3rd birthday is in a couple weeks I cant believe my babies will be 3 !! We went last week to pick out party stuff they picked animals, Jonathan wants a Zebra cake and Jeremiah wants a snake. So this is going to be tricky. Thanks for looking !

Canning

Last week I canned apples- ended up with 15 quarts of apple pie filling and 15 pints and 2 quarts of apple butter. The boys were great helpers with peeling the apples. We had fun working together.

This week I am doing pears. Today I got 12 jelly jars and 1 pint of pear butter. This is all hard work I never realized the work involved in all this, but we will enjoy the benefits of this all winter. Here is a pic of the finished work. And Gracie while I was canning.
