Pie-Yah!

I know what you are thinking. I thought Kali was going to be a vampire. Well, to make a long story short, she is bat girl:) I am so glad she chose this costume because, I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! She is just too cute and now she gets to save everyone instead of scare them!! So, this Pie-Yah move she is doing is compliments of the Backyardigans (Tyrone the pie maker) and Brylie for teaching all of the girls. They do it all the time and think it is so funny. They don't "usually" hit each other they just push their hand out in front of them and say Pie-Yah!

Halloween Party

For FHE on Monday we had a D and E building Halloween Party! This all came to be when Angie had a dream that Kim planned a Halloween party. When she told her of this dream Kim said, "that's wierd" I was thinking about putting one together:) And that is how it all started, and with me and Melissa at her side we put together this AWESOME halloween party:) The kids had a fun time decorating cupcakes, eating severed toes, monster eyeballs, bloody fingers, poison apples and drinking from the witches brew. They smashed the bat pinata, (I got the last hit:) Yay, for me!) they enjoyed eating donuts from a string and last but not least they enjoyed feeling the bat eyeballs, witches hair and vampire blood in the mad scientist lab. While in the lab the kids were freaked out when some big monster came out to scare them. Kali's face says it all. She was the most afraid the whole time. Finally toward the end, she decided it was OK to get a picture with the scary man:) As you can see in the picture with Krew and Aaron, Krew wasn't too affected by it. In case you were wondering, I am a vampire, my face it painted white, I am not really that pale:) and I am not wearing my fangs. I will remember for the Halloween night pictures:) Thanks Kim and Melissa for creating such a wonderful party for the kids!

Krew @ 7 months

Stats
Height 29 1/2 inches
Weight 18 lbs. 3 oz.

Krew is such a tough boy he didn't even cry when he got his shots, he just glared at the nurse:) Krew went quickly from scooting to now crawling. He loves to pull himself up on the couch and on chairs so he can be standing. He also pulled himself up right on top of the couch so he could look out the window and see the girls outside playing. I guess he is ready to see the world from a different perspective:) His favorite foods are poi, sweet potatoes, and sweet potato puffs. He continues to be my mellow little man, who loves to smile and laugh at everyone:)

Jack-O-Lantern

Kali has woken up the last few mornings and when she sees the pumpkin she says, "dad did a great job making the Jack-O-Lantern, huh." For FHE on Monday, Aaron carved this beauty. Kali wanted to carve one of her little ones, but we told her it was a little to small to carve anything into it and she could just help daddy with the big one. She wasn't too excited about the pumpkin guts. She tried a couple times to pull them out and them scoop them out, but both times she said, "this is gross!" She decided she was happier as a spectator:) Krew enjoyed crawling around and taste testing the pumpkin guts. Good job daddy, the spider looks AWESOME!

Aloun Farms Pumpkin Patch

The pony ride was the first thing on Kali and Brylie's agenda when we got to the pumpkin patch. After we purchased their tickets they had to stand in line for awhile which they did so arms folded and oh so patiently:) They just repeated about every two seconds, "We want to go on the pony ride." Which we replied, "You will, we just have to wait till all the kids in front of us go first." They both needed to hold their tickets, so they would be ready the second it was their turn:) Finally, the time had come and Kali got to ride a pony named, Lightning. She did it all by herself, I didn't even walk around with her, she is a seasoned rider you know, this is like her fourth pony ride. Kali and Brylie had to bring their babies on the trip, they didn't want them to miss out. While standing in line for the hayride, Kali saw this dog that she just ran over too and wanted to pet, which is a HUGE step for her because she normally is really excited to see dogs, but too afraid to pet them, because they might bite her. When Kali, Brylie and Kaiya came running back, Kali was so excited, she pet the dog and it didn't even bite her, YAY Kali! The long awaited hayride was a little too long and the girls quickly got over the whole experience and were ready to get off and pick that "perfect" pumpkin. When they did start looking for their pumpkins Kali picked out a nice size one and tried to lift it, when she realized how heavy it was she quickly decided it was over rated and for the rest of the time only chose, "her size ones." So she picked four small ones. Then I asked her to pick one big one out for me so we could carve one and she found me the beauty you see pictured at the top. I had to carry it of course:) I can't wait to carve it.
