This is our story... Believe me, it is not a fairy tale. Scott and I argue, my children have meltdowns, and my house is often a mess. But we sure do love each other
and so far we are living happily ever after.

A First Hair Cut

On Friday Ella had her first haircut. It had gotten so long that she needed a little trim. I really think she had some split ends from all the sticky stuff I have had to brush or rather rip from her hair. I was really curious as to how she was going to do for Ms. Rebecca. Cole got his hair cut first and then Ms. Rebecca asked Ella if she was ready to sit in the big chair and Ella said, "Yes!" She was so excited and was smiling. She really loves to do whatever Cole gets to do. If I need her to take medicine as long as Cole takes it too then she does it with no problem. Before we knew it Ms. Rebecca was all done. She then sprayed Ella's hair with "princess glittery" which Ella really liked and Cole thought was pretty cool too. When I see pictures of her up in the chair I can't believe how old she is and how fast time has gone by. Rebecca saved her little pieces for me to put in her baby book. Here are a few pictures.







Cole waiting patiently.





Thanks Ms. Rebecca!

Halloweenie

Last night we celebrated Halloweenie at Nana B and Papa Lewis' house. I will say the kids are getting to be the perfect age to trick or treat. No one had to stay back home with a baby, nobody fell asleep and we made it around the whole neighborhood. Cole's bag was so full of candy that he couldn't carry it toward the end. He just walked up to the houses without it. This is one of my favorite family traditions!

Parker and Dalton (guess you can't be a superhero forever)

Papa tried to scare the older boys.I know that's you, Papa!!

Playing until it gets dark enough to trick or treat.

Everyone's heading out. Dalton stepped in a pile of fireants and had to run back inside to change clothes.
Parker and Ella waiting to get some candy.





Ella loved trick or treating. She couldn't believe all the candy she got. Now if I can just get her to understand candy is not for breakfast.
