Halloween

This year we decided to have our annual Halloween party a couple days before Halloween so that we could go trick-or-treating as a family. Sam was Captain America and Mikey was a leopard. Jerry and I both painted our faces (isn't he such a good sport?!) and we had as much fun as the kids. Jerry was an army guy and I was a vampire.

A Day Off and Dinosaurs

Jerry was off work on Columbus Day and do you think his wife would let him relax and take it easy? Of course not! We went to Old Town in Albuquerque and shopped and ate at the Church Street Cafe. Afterward we went to the Museum of Natural History. For the first time ever I got to see all the exhibits and read all the signs. It was so fun!

Boys Boys Boys

Growing up with boys, I never thought I would be so happy to have 3 sons. I guess I just love boys!

Seven months old

To celebrate Mikey turning 7 months old we decided to take him on his first hike. We went to Jemez Falls and hiked 1/4 mile to the waterfall. Not only did Mikey enjoy the hike, he loved sitting in the dirt and playing with pine needles. I am so happy to have a boy who loves nature as much as his Momma does!

State Fair

After sitting in traffic for 2 hours we were all a little grumpy when we arrived at the fair. But it was nothing that some high calorie treats couldn't fix! The boys had corn dogs and Jerry and I had Indian Tacos. Mikey had a corn cob but was too busy watching the crowd to eat much. He didn't even want to be pushed around in the stroller so I carried him the entire time. We always make big plans for the fair but end up waiting in line for food most of the time. Either way, we left with full tummys, an empty wallet and some junky fair toys. A success!    

A good boy

So all I have to do to be Mom's favorite is take naps? Sweet!

Six months old

The best thing about being 6 months old is sucking on my own toes! So good...
