Family Pics

A couple sundays back we decided last minute to try and take a few family pics. This is what we ended up with. We were using our tripod so Kallie wasnt sure where she should look. I am not to crazy about the family ones but really like the ones of the kids.

Kallie

7 Months

Here are a few pictures taken in the month of October

Kallie started crawling a week before she turned 8 months, but she was pulling herself on things way before crawling as you can see in the video.

Kallie was LOVING the water bottle this went on for a really long time.

8 Months

Kallie turned 8 months on November 6, a few days after I took her to Trent's work because they have a scale, well she was 19 pounds- no wonder my arms hurt. She wears 12 month shirts and 9-12 month pants and I will be soon in 12 month pants- can you believe it she is going to pass Addison in weight in no time.

Kallie has really loved this chair, we just got now batteries for it and she loves to sit in it.

Carving Pumpkins

We had a great time carving pumpkins this year, Ethan and Addison really got into it but Kallie, well she didn't really think it was all that fun.

The best part was that these pumpkins came out of our garden. They had very little seeds and the walls of the pumpkin were extremely thick, so there wasn't much slime maybe that is why the kids got so into it.

We let them draw their own faces on, Ethan had already created his face at school, he carved all of it by himself. For some reason Addison wanted a sad face and well that is what she got.

The pumpkins didn't last very long it snowed on them the night that we carved them.

Costumes

As you can see Trent was a nerd- whats new, Addison was a witch, Ethan was a mummy and I was a graduate- my really wanted to make a Cleopatra costume but my machine was not cooperating and I ran out of time so I settled-

I made both costumes and the kids really seem to like them- I don't know if I want to do homemade again next year - I will just have to wait and see what is going on.

It snowed at least 6 inches the night before Halloween leaving the day very cold! But we still went to trunk-or-treat. The whole thing lasted about a half hour and they had more than enough candy. But Ethan really wanted to go to the down town trick-or-treating so we thought if it is sunny we will go, we did end up going and both Ethan and Addsion loved it. It was so wonderful this year, I loved how much they were into Halloween and how they could trick-or-treat by themselves.
