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.

Happy Halloween 2010

Makenzie wanted to be a bunny for halloween. I got the costume off of ebay for $10 including shipping....can't beat that. I barely got any pictures of Makenzie. She is always too busy running around crazy to stop for the camera. Usually any pictures I do get are blury because I don't have a hightech camera that can capture a picture of something while it's in motion.
Ashley and Grammi.

Ashley and Dad (aka scarey bunny man). Most of the little kids were seriously scared of him.

Ashley and Mom.

Pumpkin "Patch"

I didn't get that good of pictures from the pumpkin patch. She was more interested in playing than posing.... Sticking her face through the castle window.

Riding the carpet slide with dad.

This is what Ashley did the whole time we were there.

Porch Pictures

Not interested in smiling and/or looking at the camera.
For some reason Pete always looks like a giant wilderbeast when he's in pictures....I guess that's what happens when you are a 85lb boxer.

At least they are both looking in the same direction in this picture.

In the tub

Chubby McChubster :). Ashley is just shy of 4 months and is basically busting out of 6 month clothing.

I think that every kid has a picture like this one....
