Pumpkin Carving

For FHE on Monday we carved our own pumpkin.




Amelia was so excited. She even named the pumpkin Jack!









Amelia thought that the insides was so gross, as you can see from her expression.




Uncle Josh (David's brother) came over to join in the festivities. He was a great help holding Bree so I could take pictures.





Here David, aka daddy, is cleaning out the seeds and stringy stuff.






And know to give Jack a face, and who better to do it than the artist of the family.






Amelia was so excited when Jack was complete with eyes, nose and a mouth. She loves her new created pal Jack!
What great buds!



We had such a fun time making Jack! I can't wait till we decorate the Christmas Tree!
I just love making these great family memories.

I've been taged! here are my 6 random thoughts!

So here are my 6 random thoughts.

1. Blogging is so addicting! even when I am not posting anything I still spend hours ( time i don't really have) on my blog and friends and families blogs! It is just one of the fun things of my crazy day!
2. Like my pal Joann, Would like to also color her hair so it is more natural and not something I have to pay to up keep. I would like to be as frugal with as many things as possible and hair just seems a good place to start.
3. I was just thinking of surprises! Who doesn't love a good surprise!? It just puts a smile on every one's face and makes you feel loved!
4. I love vacations. I am taking the Girls to Oregon, by myself! The getting there part is not going to be fun at all. I am totally expecting the worst! If you have any good Ideas on how to travel with a 3 month old and a 2 year old let me know!
5. I love going to church! I love seeing friends and people I know there. Probably because the only adult interaction is David or if I call someone during the day! Sad I know! I like getting up and know I am going somewhere today, and get dressed and the family put together and looking nice!
but I also love the spirit that is there even when I am trying to calm a baby and get a toddler to settle down! I just love church!
6. I love that it is getting cooler and we can open our windows to cool down and go on walks more! I love fall in Florida! Even though there is not much of the season change with the beautiful colors like Utah or Oregon. I still love it!

I tag Amber, Susan, Heidi, Kimberlie, Laurie, Vickie and Tana! I look forward to read your random thoughts!

Bree is getting bigger and bigger.

Playing just wears her out! Bree is now three months old as of the 15th of this month and she surprises us everyday with something new! She has mastered rolling from back to tummy! She is smiling more everyday and just starting to do laughs that sounds like she is coughing! It's so cute! She recently found that her fingers taste yummy! She will suck on her fingers when ever she has a chance. She likes to talk and sit up on the couch with Mom and Dad and Amelia.
Amelia is having more fun with Bree now that she reacts to more things. She loves her tummy!Here she is hanging out with her new friend Baby Minnie Mouse.
We got out Amelia's walker toy for Bree and she enjoys sitting in it. She doesn't know quite what to do with the toys on it yet. Amelia like to show her what they all do.
She is so tall her feet even touch the floor!
We just love our little growing Bumble Bree!

Mommy Amelia!

I caught Amelia being a little mommy and had to take pictures of it!Here she is wiping one of the twins with REAL wipes.
Here she is trying to put a REAL diaper on.
(Thank goodness that we had the right size )

And here lies her next victim waiting for her diaper change.

It was so funny to watch her be a mommy to her twins. She even looked like she knew what she was doing. She definitely watches every little thing I do in detail. She is so smart!!




Dress Up Time!

Aunt Alisa came to visit from Oregon and had fun Dressing up the girls in Amelia's fairy costumes. Amelia's is wearing Purple wings and a skirt and a wand.
Bree is wearing a one piece fairy costume that Aunt Jacquie bought for Amelia to wear last year, but it looks so cute on Bree!

Fairy Sisters!



Splish Slash Bree was taking a bath!

So I found this cool bath thing at Walmart. It's elevated at one end and lays in the tub so I don't have to try to hold her with one hand. It's GREAT!! Bree is at the point where she is starting to like bath time. She really likes it when big sister helps. Amelia likes to splash her a little bit. She is good at distracting Bree.
