Picture of the Week: Traditional 'Baby in a Pumpkin' Picture


Bro Bro got his first two teeth!


He continued to sleep in his DockATot in our bed and always in his Zipadee Zip.


He napped at work. I always have to keep a burp cloth under his head, because he spits up a lot.


He squealed and hung out in his bouncer after nap time.


We played outside, and Bro enjoyed hanging in the stroller, while sisters rode their bikes.


Uncle Dan, Auntie Andrea, and Piper came to visit from Ohio, so we had to get a picture of the babies together.


Brother was all smiles at work on Wednesday.



Perry helped feed him bananas, but then he wanted to hold them on his own.




Isaac has been going to Reno every Thursday to help jump start our new division, and we officially got our first office up there.


We met the family at the pumpkin patch after work Thursday, and the kids had so much fun. I love fall because there are always so many fun things to do with the kids. We go to this pumpkin patch every year along with Staheli Farm, and we always have a blast (and spend way too much money on tickets).
















Daddy hung out with Bro Bro at work on Friday so I could get on a conference call.


We went to my mom's after work to help watch Piper, while Dan and Andrea had fun at the Knights game.




Bro Bro fell asleep, and I soaked up the snuggles.


I made this side by side of Me, Brother, and Isaac as babies. Isaac always says the baby looks like me, and I can never see it, but I actually see the resemblance here.


Saturday, we had a little Sip and See for Alex and Allison's new baby, Adalynn. We are so excited for them to have another girl, because sisters are the best! We enjoyed hanging out with everyone, and it was the most gorgeous day to do it outside.








That night, we went to Papa Rick and Grammy's to carve pumpkins with the family. The kids painted pumpkins first, while we got everything ready to carve.





Once we were ready to go, they dug right in and had fun playing with the guts. We all carved our designs, and then took our annual photo of them all lit up.






Bubba was exhausted and could barely keep his eyes open since it was way past his bedtime.


We went back over Sunday morning to spend some more time with the Swiatek's before they had to go back to Ohio. The babies napped, and then we took the traditional baby in a pumpkin picture.


He was not a happy camper, but it was worth it.


We've done this with all four of our babies, and I love all of these pictures so much.



We had a crazy busy week, but it was so nice to spend lots of time with the family.

See ya next week for Halloween!

...Char was sleeping so peacefully Monday morning that I didn't want to wake her up. ...she made me a pretty picture at school with chalk. ...she continued her obsession with the easel and colored (and watched Toy Story ) while waiting for Daddy to get home from work. Hooray for panties! ...it got cold and windy again, but we played outside anyways. Isaac played catch with the neighbor boys, while JJ flew the kite and Char strutted her stuff. ...the girls danced around the living room. There is an iTunes Radio station called 'Frozen Radio' that the girls are crazy about. They play random Disney songs, and we listen to it all.the.time. (After watching this a few times, I realized that Char was trying to sing "friend in" as in "You've Got a Friend In Me".) ...Grace put Charley to bed by tickling her face. ...the girls got cake pops. Yep, for breakfast. ...we got to school a few minute...

Can you believe Grace is nineteen months old? Time flies so much faster when you have a baby! This month she got to go see Dr. Vu for a check-up and didn't even have to get any shots. She was super excited hanging out in the waiting room and even learned how to say "cars": At nineteen months, Grace weighs in at 26 pounds, 4 ounces. This puts her in the seventy-fifth percentile for weight. We absolutely love that she's so squishy. It's makes it much more fun to smother her cheeks with kisses. She is also 31 inches tall. This is in the sixtieth percentile. Baby must have gone through a growth spurt since her last check up, because she was only in the thirtieth percentile back then. This month Grace learned a lot of new words. My favorite is when we say her bedtime prayers and at the end she says, "aaaamennn". It's so precious! She's now obsessed with Elmo and says "Ah Ehmo?" for "Where's Elmo?". She's also go...

...Gracie got a package from her Great Grandma Sally and Great Great Grandma Jennie for her birthday. She loved opening up her lip gloss and jewelry: Thanks, Grandmas!! ...Charley also got a package. Hers was an adorable little outfit I ordered for her newborn photo shoot. We tried it on to make sure it fit. Isn't she the cutest little bunny ever : ...Tuesday was election day for the primaries, so we took the girls with us and voted: ...Charley and Gracie took their first bath together. Grace loved helping Daddy wash Charley. She's such a sweet big sister: ...we had family date night at Viva Michoacan : Kasie and Jeremy gave us a gift certificate, so we decided to go use it. Isaac said he knew of the place, so he drove. After we enjoyed a delicious dinner, we figured out that our gift certificate was for Lindo Michoacan (apparently they aren't related) . Looks like another family date night is in store for us soon! ...w...
