Add-on

So I have no pictures and I am ashamed! I have been searching since my last post for photo proof but I have none!  So here it is with no photos!  I also got to meet my adorable niece Ellery for the first time while my family was in town! And she is perfectly squishable.  I'm pretty sure we are friends now too! I tried to steal some pictures from your Instagram Whirtney!! But it wouldn't allow it! So the one picture or all of us at Dave and Busters will have to wait! But we had a fun triple date night withy bro and my sis and spouses and it was a blast! And a game night too with Brent and Katy! And a girls night with mom and Karli!  Oh man I'm missing everyone all over now! It was seriously so nice and the only thing missing was Jessica's fam! Darn being 38 weeks prego! But on the plus side, there will be a new adorable niece in just a little while! And Sadie, Ellery, and Little miss will be best of friends! The End!

Catch-up

This is going to be a photo bomb since I just remembered that I have a blog!  I haven't posted in 3 months, so this is what's been going on!

The summer has ended, but we have a few memories from then to post!  We went to the library for a few things this summer, the most recent was a story time with ... oh man I can't remember the dogs name now!  Well this dog from the kids books!  We have so many of the books!  Oh well!  The kids thought it was neat to see him in person!



Sadie has turned into quite the climber/explorer... but when I cleaned out this cupboard one day she played in and out in and out for almost an hour!  It was fun to watch her play!



She also loves the stairs, and she's really good at them.  We never use the gate anymore and she goes up and down no problem!  By far the youngest any of my kids have become good at the stairs!  Also the first one to be raised in a home with stairs!


Peeking through the railings is her favorite game!


Jeremy had a basketball injury.  It's been sad since he usually plays twice a week and it has been over two months and he's just now able to go back!  It was a nasty looking sprain and kept him limping for quite a while.  We are glad he's healed now!!


Cuties!


And back to school happened!  My babies are growing up!  


Brenna had some new clothes (thanks again Aunt Aly) to choose from for the first week or two of school, and I was pleasantly surprised at how well her matching skills have improved!  I thought this was a very well put together outfit!



Even Owen started school!  He's doing a preschool co-op so we switch houses and he's enjoying it!  


About the same time Jeremy got hurt I had started doing Insanity!  I got up early every morning for 60 days and did the Insanity workouts... the kids got up with me for the first 30 days or so.  It was nice when they slept in a bit and I could workout before they woke up!  This is after one of my workouts!


We missed ward campout due to injury and work and things, and so we camped in the living room... well the kids did anyway!



I CANNOT get a good picture of all 4 kids together... should be interesting at family photos in a few weeks!




As soon as we go into Sadie's room for any reason, she goes RIGHT to the crib, crawls under and grabs any pacifiers she can find.  She knows right where they'll be since she throws them there during her naps.  I think it's so funny the efficiency she can do this with!



We just got to spend a bit of time with these beautiful people!  My parents came to visit and I enjoyed seeing them so much!  It had been a while since we didn't go home this summer, and I soaked up every minute!  It always flies by so fast!  But we did some fun things and kept busy and I miss them already!  




I got a family one too but it must be on Jeremy's phone!  Coming soon!

We went to a cardinals game with them while they were here, and it was so much fun!  I don't love watching sports on TV, but I always love watching live sporting events!  This game was awesome!


Jeremy found the coolest park ever when he had the kids and was waiting for rush hour traffic to subside.  You can't tell, but Mason is up at the very very tippy top!  I would have had a heart attack for sure, Jeremy said he was even pretty nervous with him up there!  But for Mason it was a slice of heaven as climbing is one of his favorite things!


These next photos aren't exactly in order, but We Did some more fun things with my parents too!  And also a few of my Aunts and Uncles and my Grandma Peterson were able to come so it was really nice to see them too! The girls went to a play at Hale Theatre and my parents and Grandma came to our ward trunk or treat too!

We also carved our pumpkins and had a fun Halloween around here.  Sadie and I stayed home to hand out candy while the kids trick or treated with Jeremy.  














Well there you have it!  Lots of Photos and not too much back story!  Next time will hopefully be sooner and longer-winded... haha
