Hoppy Wee O Ween

What a great Halloween Weekend we had. We went to party after party and had such a blast. It is always so fun to watch our little kid's reactions to all the Halloween crazy. The boys loved seeing people dressed up and decorating the house, and the pure joy that every door that opens offers candy. Every house we went to Mak would yell "Happy Halloween!" that would quickly be followed by Emmett's "Hoppy Wee O ween!" It made me smile every time! David had a very rare night off... and stayed out as long as the boys wanted to trick or treat... which was pretty late.. Mak wouldn't be satisfied until the neighborhood was cleaned out.
These are a few of Mak and Emmett's best buddies... the little Dorthy is quickly surpassing me as the most beautiful girl in the world in Mak's eyes.


Our church Church Carnival... they won best Costumes... which made ME so proud... because I made them haaha.
The witch isn't my child... they just really love her!My tiny little piglet... she took Halloween like a champ...
Such cutie pie kids!

Miss Violet's Big Day

Sunday we had Violet's blessing. It was such a wonderful day spent with great friends and family.
Violet wore my dress from my blessing which was pretty neat, we had to make a few adjustments to it since she is so tiny and i was apparently a fatty!
Proud parents!!! David did such a great job her blessing... I just love seeing him with his little girl.

Little girls are just the funnest... we didn't put on her dress until last second.. because she is a puker... but i loved this picture of her in her tiny little tights and little bracelet.

I made her these little shoes, they are little ballet slippers. My little nephew was helping me get her ready with all her fun little accessories and he said "Violet is everything a little girl should be" I thought that summed her up pretty good!
This might be horrible... but it was all Makray's idea... he keeps us all on the ball making sure Violet is never without her bows and bracelet on. I think he feels that is the only thing that makes her a girl and he wants people to know it is HIS sister.
I thought this was a funny picture... I walked in the living room to find Violet being safely guarded by Rudolph...

Dave's Deer

6 Weeks and Counting

Well little Violet is 6 weeks old... which by adjusted age makes her 1 week old... ya i don't get it either. Anyway we took her into the doctor for a check up this week. She is doing WONDERFUL!!! I thought that she was getting SO big... so i was surprised to find out she still only weighed 7lb 5 oz. That put her into the 2nd percentile. So she is tiny.... but with a big personality!

She is a pretty good baby... but by far my worst sleeper... i am SO exhausted... by slowly she is getting better and i keep telling myself just a few more weeks and she will be sleeping through the night.With the cold weather so came the uggs... yes i know what newborn needs uggs... but they were so fun to make that she has several pairs hahahaha.
Makray would hold violet all day long if i let him... this is his expression in response to trying to take her from him... he LOVES his sister... plus he is pretty bossy.

Emmett is still getting used to having another baby... he loves to hug her... but is pretty unimpressed with her.. he feels that she should do more cool tricks... i'm sure she will in time.
We had David home for a VERY rare couple hours the other day... don't you love how well attended to the little ball of pink is! hahaha The boys were all a little occupied by their gaming!
