Happy Halloween!!!

Kohen had a blast at his friend Zachary's Tae Kwondo birthday party!

10.28.11

Headed to our neighbors' Halloween party...the theme was WWE wrestlers

10.27.11

Practicing her scissor skills...why oh why do I think this is a good idea? Within minutes she decided to test the limits and try to cut her pants. She was quite pleased with the reaction she got.

10.22.11

Can you decipher this???

We found this when we woke up this morning. Kohen had to tell me what it said. Did you figure it out??? "I love mailbox and the FLAGS on"

10.21.11

Thank goodness! I love Kohen's teacher, but it's been bothering me that he mastered the numbers 1-30 quite awhile ago and he hasn't moved on. That being said, I was VERY pleased to see that he's being challenged again in math!

10.20.11

Despite her efforts, she doesn't look very tough!

Maryn hijacked Kohen's soccer stuff right before practice. I think she looks pretty cute! Hard to believe it's almost time to get her started (if she wants to, of course)!

10.19.11

A small glimpse of my new "trailer" classroom this year

10.18.11

It's getting colder! Maryn, Baby Henley and Ella were all snuggled up for the boys' game!

10.17.11

I always want to remember how he spells Benson :)

10.16.11

God bless the people who give us hand me down clothes! We have been so fortunate with Maryn, especially, to get some really cute things!

10.15.11

Doesn't everyone wear their "ballerina" and tap shoes while snacking on apples?

10.14.11

Taking a break from picking pumpkins to humor mom with a picture :)

10.13.11

10.11.11

While Kohen plays soccer, this is what Maryn does!

10.10.11

Got this picture via text during a long night of parent-teacher conferences. How can you NOT smile at these two faces?

10.9.11

10.8.11

Found a good way to have Kohen practice spelling his sight words. He loved it! We also did this with the numbers 10-39. I called out a number, he had to find it, then put them all in order. I'm not even sure he knew he was learning!

10.7.11

I see the moon and the moon sees me; God bless the moon and God bless me!

10.6.11

Corn dogs in the bathtub...doesn't everyone do this?

In case you're wondering...there IS a story. We surprised the kids with slushies from QT to reward K for his awesome hussle at soccer tonight. They were eyeing the corn dogs on the rolly-things and I gave in. Since I didn't want to wait for them to finish eating (it was getting late), they took the dogs into the tub.

10.5.11

Practicing her plies for when she gets to go back to dance class.

Brandon working on Kohen's homework with him--counting money!!!

10.2.11

Happy to be back at home with my Monkeys!

There is no problem that a little retail therapy won't solve :)
