Pumpkins

We carved pumpkins the other night and this is how they came out.....The girls and I looked on the internet for some ideas but I had to keep reminding them that Daddy and I are not as good as Papaw when it comes to carving pumpkins. So once we narrowed it down from advanced carving to beginner carving we were all set. Aspen picked a surprised face, Kamden picked 3 bats, and they even picked a face for Cash. In the picture below you can see Kamdens bats a little better!

One Tired Little Girl

You know Aspen is tired when you don't hear her loud voice carrying throughout the whole house and you go looking for her and you find this........She fell asleep coloring and eating a snack. This is not typical for this little girl.

Spiders....

Kamden was in charge of snack at preschool today and since I signed up late for her party on Friday we aren't going to get to make something fun (as she says). So we decided to make something "fun" to bring today. Last year we made Cheese fingers and witches broomsticks, they were a hit so today it was spiders! They were also a hit. I am not creative but when I see ideas like this and I am able to pull them off, I sure feel creative. :) We made some with peanut butter in the middle and the others were with Nutella(I love that stuff). Thought it might be a neat and easy idea for any of you that need to make a snack to bring somewhere. The sprinkles on top I just added because I didn't have anything to make eyes with.
Kamden kept asking me to take her picture so I did and this is how she chose to pose! Man she looks tough!

3 Months

Cash is 3 months today! He is becoming such a happy baby. He has mellowed out so much. Now he only really fusses when he is tired or hungry. It is so nice. For the most part he is only getting up once a night now, which is a lot easier to deal with. He is really starting to laugh a lot. I love it, I could just sit there and act dumb for hours just to keep him laughing. Cash really loves his sisters, although his eyes still get really big when he hears Aspen talking to him. It is pretty funny! (Don't mind the white stuff on the neck of his shirt, I try to keep the spit up off but I can't always keep up!)He is all worn out! I took the three kids to one of the highschool football games. He stayed awake and happy the entire time. Then once we got home he was gone! He got lots of attention at the game, the highschool girls just loved his hat! Aspen took this picture, that is why it is so blurry. She was very proud!

Mixed Feelings........

Well, where to start? This afternoon my husband stopped by the house before he left for the Boise State/Hawaii game(lucky). I was walking him out to his truck and he said "oh I have something for you" Well that got me wondering what could it be? Brock isn't one for surprises so I said "alright, what is it" He gets in his truck and puts something behind his back and says "I have been debating whether to give this to you or not" He then hands it to me.......
Do you know what it was???? MY CAMERA!!!!! That is right you all are probably feeling the same thing I did. My mouth dropped open, I couldn't believe it. I just knew I threw it in the trash and he let me believe that!! Well I guess he found it in his glove compartment(or as he calls it his jockey box) in his truck. My first question was how could you let me go through all that emotion??? We are both kind of laughing at this point but I was still wondering how could you??? He claims he really doesn't remember taking it but he says the whole time it was in the back of his head that maybe he lost it, that is why he seemed so easy going about me throwing our camera away. And I was thinking he was just a super loving husband that understands women in distress!! :) I guess I was wrong. So I said well how come you didn't own up?? And he says "because you were so sure you threw it in the trash I just let it be" So then I said "OH NO YOU DIDN'T" What a learning experience this is. I still had so many questions for him but he said "Brielle, I gotta go" as he is climbing in his truck, "I can't be late but I just wanted to give you your camera back" (with a huge smile on his face as he is backing down the driveway yells "BYE, I LOVE YOU !"
So I guessed he timed it right with handing me my camera and him driving off. I am so excited about having it back but at the same time thought I was so sure my prayer was answered that I threw it away.
I just have to let my mom know that while she is in Africa I WILL NOT LET BROCK HAVE YOUR CAMERA! I will return it safely to you when you come home. :)
So everyone for the most part I can proudly say I STILL GOT MY MEMORY. Brock just had me questioning myself a little.
