Hanging Out in the Kitchen

 
Saturday night Andrew and Kayla joined me in the kitchen and we baked cookies together. I didn't pictures of the actual cookie making but I did pictures of the best part...licking icing off of the beaters!!! :)
 









I have been feeling very good, the morning sickness has run it's course and we are now all eating and doing well. I am just over 3 months along and ready for maternity clothes. :)

11 Months Old!!

 
It's hard to believe that 11 months ago we brought home a tiny little 7 lb. baby girl, all rapped up in pink. Now shes getting so big! And she never sits still! :) She is not walking or crawling, although she is close to both, she bum scoots to wherever she needs to be then she gets up and walks along everything. Andy and her love playing together and I love watching them!
We love you Kayla!!

Fall Fun!!

Today is special day, Zach's 12th birthday! Happy birthday Zach! Well his sisters were so kind as to invite us to a wiener roast that they were having to celebrate. It was beautiful weather, the kids really enjoyed it and we had a great time!!
 
Everything ready, waiting to be eaten. :)

Josh has been busy anhydrousing the past bunch of days, he has been gone all day so we miss him dearly and can't wait for him to finish! All my outside Fall work is done except digging potatoes and carrots. We have been enjoying some nice weather this week but it looks like there might be rain coming our way, which would be a big blessing!! Well the kids need to be put to bed!

We love this family!

Last week I got a text from one of my sisters asking if the kids and I wanted to join them on a hike and picnic. Well we are always up to a fun way to enjoy our day, so we said yes, got ready and left!
We headed out to one of our pastures, unloaded and followed Mom through the cow poop :) It was a beautiful day, perfect for walking!
