14 months

Slowly but surely baby McKenna is growing up. Kaitlyn even calls her a toddler now! 

On her 14 month birthday, she has 5 teeth, laughs at anything her sister does, dances like a pro, eats pretty much anything, sleeps 12 hours straight, throws mini fits like you wouldn't believe, has a nonstop runny nose, shakes her head "no" even when she means "yes", and keeps us smiling and laughing every day!

Getting ready for halloween!

The Friday before Halloween was the party at school for Kaitlyn. The kids all dressed up and paraded through downtown Birmingham in their costumes! They also trick-or-treated in their classrooms. She came home with so much stuff...we decided to organize it in an egg carton..

McKenna after sending her sister off to school that morning. Her hair is in the "awkward stage"..lol!!

After tossing many of the choking hazards, this is what we were left with..

she got 3 tins of halloween playdoh..I was pretty impressed with her witch!!!

..and mommy's witch...

McKenna and Megan :)

Look at how big Ms Megan is getting! Molly and Calvin visited with us too last week - always fun!

Friendly? castle and hayride

There was no time for resting when we woke up the morning after zoo boo! Time to go through our loot and get ready for the Haunted Castle and Hayride at the church..

I had a feeling that it was going to be "not so friendly" when we saw the butler standing in the entrance to the haunted castle..I mean we didn't even bring our butler out from the basement this year cause of his "scare factor". And sure enough, it was pretty scary..but we emerged unscathed (and hopefully unscarred) lol.....

The hayride through Beverly Hills - fun!!

I really cannot believe I could not get a decent picture. They were both sitting on this hay for what felt like an eternity!!!!!!

Oh well, I am still on my mission for a picture with them both looking and smiling :)

Zoo Boo 2010

We had such a great night for Zoo Boo and celebrated with great friends! From the pre-festivities (pumpkin hunt and decorating) to the fun of getting dressed together; this is a year we will not forget! Kaitlyn was in heaven that her friends were over and I can honestly say this event is one of those that just gets better and better every year!

Trying the pumpkin spice cake!

Molly's first zoo boo :)

Isabel and McKenna (1 month apart) were both ladybugs..are you kidding me??? adorable!!!

Lila Hindman = NO WORDS to express how cute she is!

Mason trying out the garage gear..

..and Henry too!

I knew the minute they grabbed hands this would go down in the books :)

Henry finishing it off with a batman mask PLUS the buzzlight year get-up..too funny!!!

A whole series..

Actually this isn't even half of the pictures I took. I just can't seem to decide which ones to post so I am going with a bunch tonight!
