Pumpkin Carving

The favorite part of pumpkin carving was scooping out the guts. 

A tall and skinny pumpkin was perfect for the tall and skinny pickle baby.

 

Fall Camping

 This past weekend we went fall camping.  The boys had a break from school so we found something fun to do.  We were a little scared of what the weather was going to be like because it snowed a day or two before we left, but it ended up to be a beautiful weekend.

 The little boys were not at the campground much because we don't all fit in our trailer that well with two pack and plays.  It was a treat for Fisherman and I to both stay out at the campground with our two big boys.  We could actually enjoy ourselves instead of CONSTANTLY making sure a one year old isn't getting into something he shouldn't be.

I didn't take many pictures because I was too busy relaxing and doing fun things with the two big boys.  It was a fabulous weekend.

First Snowfall

 The boys were SO happy to have off from school on the first snowfall.  They woke up, looked outside, and were begging to go out.  They spent all morning out there.

Pumpkin Pictures

 Every year I take the boys to a nearby farmer's market that has TONS of pumpkins.  We pick out some little pumpkins to paint and I get to take their picture.  Taking pictures of all my boys together brings me so much joy. 

 My big boy.  I am so thankful for the little man that he is becoming.  He has such a giving spirit and is willing to help without being asked.  He writes me love notes, still likes to snuggle, and is fun to talk with.

 My second boy is quickly becoming a big boy.  He has shown so much growth since he started kindergarten.  He is goofy and LOVES facts.  I cherish our lunches together on his days off from school and LOVE that he is starting to like games.

 My number three.  He likes to talk, is so funny, and loves to get into things.  I love to kiss his cheeks and have him snuggle in my lap.

 The sweet babykin.  He is our little go getter.  He does unbelievably well keeping up with his three older brothers.  I love his morning snuggles and his sweet little curls.

Halloween Camping 2013

 This past weekend we went Halloween camping.  The boys had so much fun!  Above is Bugs on the Friday night hay ride.

 Monk man picking his pumpkin to carve.  I feel like he looks so old here.  It seems like just last year he was Bug's age and he needed Fisherman to help him lift the heavy pumpkins out of the bin.

 The perfect pumpkin for Bebo.

 Bugs was serious about scooping the guts out.

 He had to pull the wagon full of pumpkins all the way back to the trailer.

Monk and Bebo both were chosen to take a swing at the piñata this year.  There are so many kids so you never know if you will have a turn.  We had some crazy moments camping as a family of 6, but it is worth it when I see how much fun my boys have.  This is definitely a highlight of ours every year.

Nature Walk

 Today I took the three little boys on a nature walk.  It ended up being a little longer than I had expected because I was feeling a little lost for part of the time.  They had so much fun.  We saw ducks, birds, insects, a snake, turtles, and a giant bee hive.

 Bebo and Buggy were pretending to hunt the birds and the ducks.
