Frosty Morning

It was a cold one this morning. The kids really were hoping for snow. This is the closest we got to it...alot of frost.

It's not a clear picture but very cute.

This was on Thanksgiving Day. Oma was doing some crafts with the kids.

This look sure says it all. Mischief is certainly in the horizon.

I love this picture of Blake. It shows his shy side yet willingness to pose for me. Thanks Blake! I love you.

Before Altercation

If you read the post prior to this you might be confused by this "father-looking-adoringly-at-son" picture.

Lessons Learned

Learning the in's and out's on violence during playtime and why it's wrong for both you and your daddy.

For some reason, Carter got it in his head to approach Blake very non-chalantly with the garden spade and threaten bodily harm to him. Bodily harm is probably referring to possibly Blake's knee cap or lower since Carter doesn't reach much beyond that. Though small and very adorable at times he can evoke a menacing presence when need be.

Childhood

Halloween09

Halloween isn't my favorite holiday, but it is fun to see all these kids dressed up so cute! As you can see, Carter was very interested in Jed's costume.

"angel"

As soon as she saw me with the camera, she started posing for me. What a little angel she is.

I love this little guy!

Medieval

We made a very impulsive and quick trip to LA. We ate at Medieval Times. I was sure glad everyone did well. Jacie had a fever, Avery got sick in the car (luckily we were prepared because we didn't know how Jacie was going to hold out) and the show/dinner started at 7pm, their bedtime. Carter sat still the whole night because he was so ensconsed with the show. At one point I thought I would have to leave with Avery because she was "scowd" (scared). Lucky for us the jousting didn't happen till the very end of the show so Avery was able to warm up to everything. The best thing of the evening was having all four of them so tuckered out that they all fell asleep for the night in the same room!

Maze

They found the end of the maze. This was not scripted!

difficult

It sure is hard to get 4 kids looking all in the same direction at the same time.

Irvine Patch

One of these kids is not like the other.

C miles

This kid has racked on the miles. I can't tell you how much terrain he has covered on his big,bad, pink bike. If you're wondering where his shoes are, they're inside his seat. Yes ladies and gents, this hot rod has it all.

Resigned

Can we say unhappy camper? He doesn't like wearing a helmet. End of story :)

What time is it Mrs. Fox?
