Makenzie and Riley

Sometimes its not even worth it to me to try and get a posed picture...


(yes, we still have a tube tv. we actually are finally going to move into the 2010's....we bought our first flat panel at hhgregg online thanksgiving day. 50 inch for $599. we can pick it up at the store this weekend)

Check out those baby blues...

Ashley at 5 months. She decided to roll over today from back to front. She's only done it once though. She's also started trying to roll from front to back, but gets hung up on her side.

Human Apple Peeler

Makenzie doesn't like the skin on the apple. Instead of letting me peel it, she had to pull the two year old, "I'll do it myself". I should have taken a picture of the pile of apple skin that she was spitting out on the coffee table, but Taylor threw it out before I thought about it. I'm not sure if she actually ate any of the apple.

Fall Day

Taylor took Makenzie and Pete to his parents house for a little bit this morning, so it gave Ashley and I some time to go outside and clean up some leaves. Our neighborhood is titled, "The Woods", so that should give you an idea of how many leaves we deal with during the fall. Ashley sat nicely in her stroller while I worked on getting the leaves out of the yard and into the driveway.
I swear I'm not feeding my baby butter.....she's just big boned :).

Proof that I wasn't just taking pictures and that I was actually cleaning up leaves. We've been raking and mulching leaves for a couple of weeks now. The picture below is just from about half of our front yard for this weekends clean-up. There are still plenty of leaves waiting to fall so we'll be out again next weekend...and the weekend after that....and some more after that too.

Makenzie and Brooke

Take one....
Take two...

Take three...

Take four....

One day we'll get a picture where they are both interested in smiling and looking at the same time.
