November/December

We've all been doing very well, and the kids are growing a lot! Mitchell started to take his first steps about two weeks ago. He walks about 4-6 steps before plopping down. He is saying about 5-6 words and getting close to turning one! We taught him to hold up one finger for the big day. Mitchell also had his first haircut, which was very traumatic! Pool Lea is still waiting for her first cut. Maybe by the time she is three!! Lea is getting very excited for Christmas and loves going out to look at all the lights and decorations. She amazes us everyday with her vocabulary and expressive ways!! We are all anticipating the holidays and our baby boy's first birthday on the 26th! More photos to come as the holidays draw nearer.

Happy Halloween

Lea and Mitchell had a great Halloween! Lea helped carve a pumpkin at Nana and Papa's. Then she got to decorate a pumpkin with friends at the park. For Halloween they had a blast trick-or-treating in the neighborhood dressed as a beautiful princess and a jolly, orange pumpkin. But as you can see from the pictures, Mitchell was not so jolly. He didn't care for his costume much. Needless to say it was a successful night! Enjoy these photos.

Fun Fall Photos

We have a lot of fun fall activities now that it is FINALLY cooling down here in AZ, so keep checking in for our fun fall photos! Happy Fall (My favorite season)

We went out to Schnepf Farm last weekend. Lea went on rides, rode a pony, and played in the pumpkin patch with Mitchell. We had perfect weather!

Nana Jane Visits

Nana Jane came to visit for a week from WA. We had fun swimming, playing outside, and going to the zoo. It was Lea and Mitchell's first time at the zoo.
