yes, cailyn is in my dryer...I unloaded some clothes and
while I was putting them in the living room when I came back
to the put more clothes in the dryer, this is what I found IN it!

then later that afternoon I was steam cleaning our carpets and as
I went to get water in the container I came back and cailyn was
sitting where the bucket of water goes :) She is such a mess but
makes me smile...well most of the time :)


My little Cailyn can be a handful...any mom with a 1-2 yr old so can relate. the little ones make each day interesting :) this is a couple of times today I was able to get a picture of things Cailyn did.



Cailyn at the table feeding her baby...
but when she got up the kids put the bear back
on the seat since this was a birthday party for the
animals :)


as you can see cailyn is back on the seat and the
bear....


is back on the floor :)



Today I was invited to a birthday party for Pixie.
Pixie is their stuff doggy :) he turned one today!
the kids love playing with their stuff animals though
mommy hates stuff animals...I make sure they get in
the washer at least once a week and we have limited
the amount we have :)

caramel apples




I love the frusterated look on her face when the apple
would not come off the plate :)

now that tastes good :)

I think Zach is enjoying his too :)
Andrew is enjoying eating the candy off the apple
more than the apple itself :)




First of the month we went over to the Moyes to make caramel apples.
this was actually the first time my kids had made it themselves...usually
I just drizzle caramel over the apple slices so its not so messy :)...but the kids
had so much fun dipping their apples into the caramel that I'm sure mommy
won't be drizzling caramel over apple slices anymore :)












homeschool with the moyes







Since our friends, the Moyes, are doing the A beka DVD program and have 2 children the same grades as us, :) the kids have enjoyed getting together at least twice a month to do school together. And of course the mommies enjoy the fellowship too :)
and then after "school" the kids look forward to recess :) I took pictures of the kids the last time i was over there. but I am missing a picture of Zach due to a blurry picture I took so next time Zach I need to take a picture of you :)

Cailyn not really wanting to pose...that finter
would not come out of the mouth...









we went driving the other day and we came across
this old barn so we stopped and got pictures. andrew
actually wanted to pose that day so I was excited :)
we drove some more and I found another building so
Nathanael had some pictures taken there. Then came home
and Madison and Cailyn had their's taken around our yard.

cailyn wondering when her turn is :)























on Monday after school we went up to
our park to have a picnic and to enjoy the
fall weather....the kids enjoyed it tho
that day it was so windy!




baking




baking with the kid's help :)


school

homeschooling is going good but as much as
I would love to keep on a schedule, having
2 little ones can be challenging so each day
is different...some better then others:) Cailyn
loves to steal chairs from the kids when they
are standing or she is on the table messing up
their schoolwork....so until 10:30 every morning
it can be stressful....but by 10:30 cailyn is in her
bed and we are all happy...pretty bad when the
kids even ask " is it time for her nap yet?"
cailyn is trying to get in andrew's chair....
she is trying to tell him to get out.....
and you can tell who won..... :)
she is so rotten!


the kids singing with their class...cailyn loves
singing with them and doing hand motions
