Not all fun and games.

We had 3/4 of a great day today LOL. This morning we got the spring flower crafts down and got the first of the fall stuff up. Then we broke out some of the puzzles and games they got for their birthday.



It is kind of cool how much these faded, you can see them back when they were new here.

We did a 48 pc puzzle, a few times, they were getting pretty good after the 3rd or so time LOL.



Hayden pouting when it was all done.

Happy Hayden when I agreed to do it again :)

Then we busted out the Memory game, Hayden was very good at it...a little too good, she would tell Xander and Lily where matches were hehehe.

We did baths tonight, Jericho got to hang with the big kids for a little bit.



4 babies in the tub :)



The only downer on the day was when we had to hold Hayden down to brush her hair after bath time. She screamed and cried the whole time, if she didn't have such pretty hair we would take her in to get it chopped short. It was funny though, after we were done brushing her hair she settled down and was fine, then about 5 min later she out of the blue let out one scream. I looked over at Jason and said, "what's wrong with her now?" Without missing a beat he says "flashback" LMFAO :)

Time for some Fall crafts!

Before we get to the crafts I have to share these pics.
It has been getting chilly some nights so we broke out the kiddos sleepers. My almost 9 month old is wearing a 12mo sleeper that used to be his brothers, and the 3 three year olds are in 4t sleepers. My big kids! I miss footy pj's, they just look so comfy and warm :)


Acting silly LOL.


Here is a flashback...Xander at 14 months in the same sleeper :)


OK craft fun! Fall is here, time to get the spring stuff replaced with all things leafy :)

painting their leafs.

We also did these great hand print trees with finger print leaves. Pinterest has so many fun ideas!

The finished products.

Another Pinterest gem...our family tree :)


Jericho is a busy boy, he can now use his walker toys all over the house...since he has figured out how to turn them so he can go in any direction.


Jason has already tried to kill his anniversary bonsai, hopefully we can nurse the poor thing back to health.


It has been raining off and on now, so our once daily walks are now hit and miss. Today was a beautiful day to go for a walk though, and everyone had fun wearing their shades.


It is seriously impossible to get them all looking at the camera at one time grrr.



Still working on going hands free...in such a hurry Jericho.

The ending to a great day...the trio got to try their first peanut covered carmel apples, they were a hit LOL.

Ready for more!

Xander has had some great EI sessions the last few weeks, he is really making awesome progress. We were actually given the OK to call and get all 3 on the list for the peer group in their preK classes! I doubt we will get them in this year, but we should be able to get them in next year.

Jericho sneaking up to join in.






Grandma came by for a visit today. The kids were so happy to see her, and not just because she brought them some new shirts :)


Aww Hayden and Lily and Grandma snuggles :)



Xander and Jericho we actually playing nice for a little bit today. Little man now has 8 teeth all the way in and 3 more that have poked through his gums, he is a teething machine!
