Family Pictures

At the beginning of October, our great friend Amy, took some family pictures of us in the beautiful autumn colors. I was trying to save them for our Christmas card - but they are just too cute. I'll save the family one for the card...
Thanks sooooooooo much Amy, you are so awesome and not to mention talented.

 

 

 

Cosmic Date!

A couple of weeks ago, Rob planned a date for us to go Cosmic mini-golfing - it was so fun! Sophie came along for the fun (mostly because she's still too young to leave with a sitter).

 

I didn't fare so hot - Rob is a much better golfer...

 

Sophie made a new friend...

 

And then she hid under her blanket and slept... Ahhh overstimulation!

 

Finally... Halloween

So it was the night before Halloween and all through the house,
not a pumpkin was carved, not even one!
So we busted out our potato head faces and finished the job - lickety split!
The kids enjoyed this, I think, even more than carving!

 

Make a face like your pumpkin...

 

And finally Halloween was here!! This is the kids getting ready to hit the doors... (by the way, it was 70 degrees on Halloween - Wahoo!!)

 

Sophie for McCain!

Rob somehow ended up with some tickets to a McCain rally that was here in Denver a couple of weeks ago. So we took Sophie to her first political event - she was so pumped...

 

 

It was actually pretty lame - a short speech and a bunch of fanatic supporters... But, John Elway was there (that was probably the real reason Rob wanted to go):)

Thanks Nona!

Ana's Grandma "Nona" sent her the cutest ballet bag to carry her ballet shoes in. Needless to say, it goes everywhere with her...

Chubby Alert!

We've discovered that Sophie will sit in her Bumbo... if you take all her clothes off - I guess they're just too bulky. Little Stinker...

Pumpkin Heaven

We went back to the same pumpkin patch again this year. This time, Sophie got in on the action...

 

Hayden had a hard time choosing a pumpkin, who can blame him with all of those colors to choose from...

 

Climbing Mt. Pumpkin...

 

Good thing they had hay bales to rest on after all that climbing...

 

Dancing with Daddy...

First Daddy-Daugher dance. Rob loves to listen to Bob Marley and get the kids dancing in the kitchen...

Indian Summer

October was the best month for weather! With most days averaging in the 60's and 70's, we had a wonderful time holding on to summertime activities.

 

 

Whose "Baby Legs"?

One of my friends showed me how to make those super cute tights for baby girls called "Baby Legs" out of tube socks - so a couple of us had a crafty day and made some for our girls. Can you guess which one is Sophie?
