Fall leaves

I got really lucky to get with these pictures. Later that same day the lawn mower came and munched up all the leaves. The kids were pretty sad to see their nest blown away, but it is just as well since it has been kind of rainy. Wet leaves are not very much fun to play in.
We had the primary program this last Sunday. It was kind of a family affair. Ryan played the piano. I got to sit by the microphone and help prompt kids and direct traffic. And Kaitlynn was ready for her close up. She had her part memorized and said it with full confidence. She also sang I feel my Saviors Love in a trio of girls. I know I am biased, but she was by far the cutest sunbeam up there, and the best behaved (might have had something to do with the fact that I was sitting right in front of her.)
Olivia is acting like she wants to crawl now. She really tries, its just hard for her to get that big belly of hers off the ground. Maybe by Christmas time she will be moving around. Just in time to pull off ornaments from the tree.

Gathering leaves to build a nest.



They were build a nest for this guy. I am pretty sure he didn't make it back in the house. He was too small and the wrong color to stand a chance.





Good night little Ninja.

Where did he go?


Ssssss


Olivia has been talking a lot lately. This is her copying me. Of course she doesn't do it for long before she tries to get the camera. She is growing up too fast.

Park

I haven't taken many pictures lately so all I have to post is a small outing to a park. Ryan had to study late so instead of making dinner we went to the park and played because I am just that cool of a mom! On the down side we had to go to the doctors office today and get flu shots, because I am just that mean of a mom. Way not fun. A little side note, Olivia is 22 pounds! What the?! Kaitlynn didn't weigh that much until she went into nursery!


From a distance it looks like they enjoy playing with each other. Really he is mad that she got on there with him.

Here he is trying to tell her to move on. While she sticks on her perma-cheese face for the camera.

I was surprised though, he did let her push him.

This is her first attempt at an under-dog.

Amazingly she never did get hit.

Just have to get down low enough.

Cute.

Super cute.

They would have stayed and played all night if I would have let them.

This is how Olivia enjoyed herself. Nothing like a yummy bracelet to pass the time.

After the park we found our friends playing outside. This is both of the Olivia's playing together. They are already best friends, can't you tell?
