Cookie Time!!!


We are just loving Halloween at my house! from pumpkin carving, to spooky decorations and decorating Halloween sugar cookies! It really is the most wonderful time of the year!!! well, Reven just loved this of course. I think we made a mistake because he asked for a cookie every 5 seconds. And he STILL asks for them first thing when he wakes up. But it was really fun, the whole family decorated them for family home evening and we all had a blast. I really wish you all could try them because they are ADDICTING!!! I have to pace myself, and I don't even like icing!

Carving pumpkins!


We carved pumpkins this weekend. This was the first time Rob and I carved pumpkins since we've known each other. It was pretty fun, Reven was interested up until the point we opened them up and showed him the guts...then he didn't like it. but once we were done and put the candle in it he loved it! So Rob and I have been debating who's is better? so you guys have to let us know, who's pumpkin is "cooler!" don't worry we wont be offend it's a friendly competition! Just comment below and let us know! Ps, if you are wondering where Mason is, he is taking the pictures!

Sneaky boy

So, I keep the baby powder on a shelf hanging from the changing table. and the past few months Reven has been interested in it. he likes when I put a little on his hands and he likes to rub it on his cheeks. well, the past couple weeks he has been wanting more and more, and I keep having to tell him no. But it hasn't gotten out of hand and I still keep it in the same place (he can reach it by the way) well, the other day I was in his room playing with Mason and him, and he went to get the powder, I told him No, we don't play with that. well he forgot about it and went on his way doing whatever he does. And then I was reading a book to Mason, and I swear Reven was just waiting for me not to pay attention. and I saw him out of the corner of my eye, look at me, then grab the powder and hide behind his belly, and then run out of the room sideways so I couldn't see what he had. I couldn't believe it. where would he learn such a thing :) so I let him have it for a minute thinking he was in the clear. and then I snuck up on him. this has happened a few times, and this is one of those times.......needless to say I had to hide the powder completely!

Just cute!

I put this video up for no other reason than, my boys are just too cute. There really is nothing exciting happening or anything funny. I just think these boys can be so sweet sometimes! (sometimes being the key word!!!)

Saturday Afternoons

Most people like to go out on Saturday afternoons and enjoy the day. Us? no, we like to throw our kids up in the air! But I tell ya, they love it more than anything!

Dancin' Man!

Here is my little man dancing away. He discovered he loves to dance all the time. He does it the most when the music is up really loud, he doesn't care what's playing, he dances to everything from Justin Timberlake, to Rock! the video is kind of long, but isn't he so cute?

Oh Brother

So, Mason just loves dancing, and Reven just loves to push him over! but hey, what are brothers for?

Temper

I think it's time for a bigger car... sometimes when Reven is in a bad mood, he doesn't want Mason to look at him or touch him while they are in the car. And since they sit right next too each other, that's not really an option. I happened to have my camera in the car when he was throwing one of these lovely tantrums. Instead of getting mad, I just mock him! what a wonderful mother huh? :)

An Apple a day....


This weekend we went apple picking! It's sounds funny, but was really fun. we drove up to "Fish Kill" New York (now that's funny) and went to Barton's Orchard. They have tons of different kinds of apples, and you buy a bag and can go and pick whatever kind and how many you want. Reven absolutely loved it. He loves being outside and climbing trees and of course, the APPLES! He loved just walking around eating a whole apple to himself. Mason loved it too, he likes being outside and being with his family! It was a great time, maybe a tradition who knows.... as for me, I can't wait to dry some apple and make apples chips! YUM...enjoy the slide show!

Scary

So, is this not the scariest picture you've ever seen? Being a Halloween freak of course I have a black light. and we were having fun with it the other night. Reven really likes it, but that's not unusual he loves all lights!
Reven and Rob making faces
oh the black light....it's a beautiful thing!

Insanity

So my mom went to Vegas for a Team builder for work. And on top of the "stratosphere" is a ride called the Insanity. the building it's self is 1191 ft high and this ride hangs out over 990 feet above ground! YIKES! anyway it pulls you out over the building and puts you face down looking at nothing but the ground below you! It whirls and twirls and what not. Too scary for me, I mean I love roller coasters, but this is a little much! Anyway I know most of you don't know my mom Lisa, but I thought I would give her props for going on this ride alone because her team was too chicken to go with her! Love you mom! she's the Redhead

We have another one!

So, I figured Mason wasn't going to be a bouncer like Reven was because at this age Reven was already banging his head against things (no he's not autistic) well Mason has shown no signs of doing anything like that.....and then this happened!

4 wheeling

Reven is getting more adventurous by the day. He wanted to ride his bike down this hill in front of our house. So of course,us being very good and protective parents...we let him! He loved it, he kept doing it over and over again! This little tractor is proving to be more and more useful!

Rob's turn

So After we threw Reven down the hill, Rob decided it would be a good idea for him to go down, on the little, tiny, john Deere. He's crazy, but it makes for great video!
