Thanksgiving 2017






We had a great Thanksgiving this year! We headed up to Westlake, hit basically no traffic, got to see my parents, Marc/Kirsten and Julie/Dan and it was 90 degrees all weekend so we hung out in the pool the whole time! The kids had a blast. Sadie was in heaven with all the attention she was getting. We ate a lot, drank a lot and laughed a lot. Just what we all needed. It always goes so fast, it was sad it all had to come to an end.

A little piano playing with Nana



Uncle Marc!



Like summer time! 







He LOVED hanging in the pool :) 


Lots of chillaxing going on











The ladies :) 


We actually got a group pic!


The two dogs hung out here most of the weekend


Sadie is no dummy hiding under Owen's chair during dinner



First Thanksgiving dinner.  He didn't eat a whole lot. You'd think he likes to eat a lot based on his size!


Lots of wrestling went on this weekend. Including Marc and Josh wrestling each other into the pool



 






1,2,3,4 I declare a thumb war!



Basketball time!





When we got home we pulled out the Christmas decorations. My favorite time of the year!


These two chewed on some paper together. Hahaha



Toast. On the couch asleep by 6p last night.

Oh boy, someone is on the move and is highly motivated by dog toys and/or strings from dog toys...

Busy few weeks

The past few weeks have been a complete blur. I've been really busy at work with some late nights, Josh has been traveling, Owen still hasn't adjusted to the time change and still isn't really sleeping much at all so we are exhausted! He also had an ear infection, hand foot and mouth and possibly the flu. The kids have been busy at school with jog-a-thons, parent teacher conferences, Thanksgiving activities, etc. But all is good :) Here are some pics.

Owen LOVES the bath! He eats bubbles, drinks water, goes "swimming" and cries when I get him out. 






The kids had their jog-a-thin. Ryan in the grey shorts sprinted around the whole time, he was exhausted!



Emmy and Riley on the other hand....


Didn't make it a lap without stopping for water. Ha! These two...


We've been playing a lot of chess. Ryan has been teaching me the rules :)


Owen is still ADORABLE


And he LOVES Sadie. 


And he is still as chubby as can be


We had Veteran's Day off of school and work. 3 day weekends are the BEST








These two are obsessed with each other's toys. Sadie is always stealing Owen's and Owen is always stealing Sadie's. She sits very patiently and watches him. He is the only one she is calm with, it is actually quite amazing to watch. 


One of my favorites pics of these two. They BOTH started choking on the red string from this lobster toy so it had to go in the garbage. 


 Still the best of friends




Me and Buddy went jean shopping which was super cute. I always go shopping with Emmy so it was fun to go just the two of us :)


The only upside to being sick is lots of snuggles :)


We went to PF Changes to celebrate how well they are doing at school. Both teachers told us they are joys to have in their class, they are both doing so well. Ryan is a leader in his class and is already reading and writing, is always following directions and is sweet with all his friends. Emmy is advanced in pretty much everything and loves math so much she does work sheets at home for fun!
