I'm Back

I hope I haven't forgotten how to do this, it seems like it's been forever since I've blogged. A lot has been going on around here lately, we got ourselves moved in to our new house, at least most of the way, there is still a lot of organizing to be done. I love living in a house, It may be silly, but I am so happy to have a washer and dryer and a dishwasher. I cant believe I went 3 years without.
We lost Max a few days ago. He'd been in the garage and got all dirty so he had to stay there until we could give him a bath. It was only for one night, but when David opened the garage to go to work the next morning Max ran out and we couldn't find him anywhere. I searched all over the neighborhood and kept calling for him. We left to go to town and I hoped he'd turn up, but there was still no sign of him when we got home. I decided to check the garage so I started calling to him and I kept thinking I heard this tiny noise, but it was so faint I couldn't tell if it was Reece inside crying. Finally I moved a few boxes around and there he was hiding, he'd been there all along. I was really relieved, I hadn't realized how much Max is a part of our family until he was lost.
My babies are both sick. I think Sierra is just getting a cold, she's a bit snotty and has started coughing a bit, but other than that she's happy. Reece on the other hand has Croup, a double ear infection, and is constipated, he's backed up basically to his throat(over-exageration).
Sorry no pics this time, hopefully I'll be able to blog more frequently now so I'll be able to get some pics up soon.

We're in

We are moving into a house. I am so excited. We found out today that our credit check came back and we were approved to move in. I can't wait to have my own washer and dryer. I love the yard too, we'll finally be able to have people over. My blogs might be a bit sparse for a while since I'l be busy packing, but hopefully it wont take us too long to get settled. We've moved 8 times since we've been married so I think we're professionals by now.

Modelesque

Sierra looked so cute last Sunday. I wanted to take some pictures of her, but she was carrying around one of those stretchy rubber bands, the kind used for exercising. I didn't want it in the picture so I told her to set it down on the couch, well she set it down, but wouldn't let go of it. I took the pictures of her anyway and they actually turned out really cute. She looks like she's posing.

Carving Creations

We had so much fun doing pumpkins this year. We put Reece to bed so he didn't get to help, but he's a little young. Sierra had a blast, she was all over getting the guts out of the pumpkin. I let her decorate her pumpkin all by herself too (OK, I helped a little). We got sooo many pumpkin seed this year, which I love, I've been snacking on them every day. Here are some pics of our finished products.

She was so proud of her pumpkin, she wanted to cary it around with her all night, but it was too heavy.
I carved the ghost, Dave's is the alien, Sierra's own creation, and I did the baby one too ( you can't see it in the picture, but it has a binky in it's mouth).

Pics

So I guess I do have a little bit of time tonight to post some picture of our Halloween experience. The kids looked absolutely adorable in their costumes. Sierra was a ladybug and Reece was a skunk. I love Old Navy costumes, the kids were so warm and so cute. We had a lot of fun trick-or-treating in our neighborhood, we even let Sierra go up to some houses on her own while we stayed on the sidewalk. She thought that was pretty cool. Then we went to the Trunk-or-treat at the church, that doesn't last long, at least this year they told everyone to go around clockwise so we weren't in complete chaos.

Our little stinker.

long time no see

It has been forever since I've been able to post anything. Our computer is totally freaking out. The graphics keep going all screwy, it'll show everything like 5 times overlapping. I'm totally freaking out too because all of my pictures are on this computer and I dont have anything to back them up so if it goes down we'll have lost everything from the time Reece was 2 months old. I think we're going to get some discs so we can save our pics to them, then I wont have to be so worried. I dont have much time right now to post pictures or anything, but I'll do it hopefully in a few days. We had a great Halloween, got loads of candy and the kids looked sooooo cute(pics to come). We might be getting into a house too, we put the application in today so we should know in a few days, I'll keep you posted.
