Recap of the past month

Didn't mean to let a whole month pass before blogging again but these kiddos keep me busy and life just speeds ahead!  We had a fun Halloween.....

My kids - a ballerina, The Flash, and a cute, cute cow!

Love these two!

The babies of the family - my nephew Waylon (aka Superman :D) and my sweet Caedon

Kyler (and the rest of us) decorated a pumpkin for his contest at school.  Isn't Pikachu cute?  And Kyler won 3rd place!
Caedon has been smiling more and giggling some, too.  He's so adorable and the kids get so excited to make him smile.  They count up the number of times he smiles at them every day!  :)

How adorable are these three little munchkins?

Melissa is so funny!
We had a great Thanksgiving, too!  It's always so much fun to spend time with our whole big family and watch the kiddos play together!  We now have 9 great-granchildren at our family gatherings so it gets quite crazy!  :)

Caedon is now enchanting Aunt Doris and Amy with his adorable smiles.  :)

Kids - Kyler, Heath, Kyleigh, Christopher, Stormy, Hannah, Caleb, Melissa, Waylon and Caedon.  Whew.  This year we actually had 10 since Stormy, my brother's niece, was with us.

My dad's grandkids - Kyler, Melissa, Caedon, Hannah and Waylon

My little finger-sucker says Happy Thanksgiving!

This month Kyler also lost his first two teeth!  My baby is way too grown up!







We also have decorated for Christmas and we've already gone to visit Santa!  The kids are SO excited about Christmas!  (Well, 2 of them.  Caedon doesn't care one little bit.  :D)

Kyler thought he was supposed to decorate himself!


Look how excited they are!

Caedon is now 3 months old!  No doctor appt this month but according to my scale he's about 14 lbs.  (He was only 12.5 at his 2 month check-up)  It's so hard to believe we've already had him here with us for 3 whole months!  He's still such a calm baby and we just love him to pieces.  It's really hard to imagine life without him now - he adds so much to our lives.
