Happy Halloween!!

So it's been long enough since I blogged that the MIL called me to make sure I was ok, lol! Sorry Lynne! We're fine! Since the last time I blogged, we went to a pumpkin patch.




I also caught Marcus blowing out a candle for the first time! It was cute. He tried like 50 times and then was so surprised when he finally got and has tried to blow out the candles in a picture in one of his books multiple times, lol!



I sprayed the boys with bug spray and let them play in the leaves



Marcus had a lot of fun. he was helping me rake and everything, so cute, lol!

Here's some pics of the boys in their costumes!









Can I tell you how sick I am of pics like this? He's looking and grinning so cute and yet.. it's blurry. And the next one, his eyes are half closed. WHY?! And notice the rest, he's not looking or smiling. Sooo frustrating!




I didn't get my carvkin pummed [heehee] but I got everyone else's done, so here they are! :)

Happy Halloween!

oh buzz. buzz. buzz.

We watched Sesame Street this morning [like we do every morning] and the episode was one we've seen countless times. The letter of the day is I. I goes looking for the letter of the day and finds an insect who says "buzz buzz buzz. Buzz buzz buzz. Oh buzz. Buz. Oh buzz. buz. buz." and it makes me laugh every time. It's the episode where the word on the street is mustache and I get all excited cause I know the letter of the day is coming and I get to hear the "OH buz!"

Pathetic.

You can definitely tell I'm a mom.

I've been sick. It's been crappy. It was all in my sinuses and now it's moved into my chest with a cough. Crummy! It's really bringing me down too. I hate being sick. It always makes me irrational and like the world is out to get me. I feel unloved a bit and disheartened by my sad photography abilities. Wah! Sabe would say to me if he were here.

Well maybe that's the problem. Sabe's NOT here. I miss my hubby coming home at the same time every day.

Though I did have fun doing a scrap a thon this weekend and got 12 pages done in 3 days. I was busy busy busy!

I should go to bed. It's late. And no matter how late I stay up, Sabe's still not coming home to night and the later I stay up the more exhausted I'll be when Marcus gets up tomorrow. I put him down early so I could do some more scrapping and didn't scrap a thing! Boooooo

There and Back Again

We're back from Vegas! The boys did so awesome on the plane there. I was really worried about catching my second flight, but it worked out perfectly. The gate we came into was G29 and the Gate I needed was G34 so I didn't even need to go to a different terminal which is good since I only had half an hour between flights. We made it to Vegas at 2 am our time and of course Marcus had a power nap on plane so he was wide awake when we got there. He was all over the place!

Seeing the fishies

Thinking my moms resin train was a toy

playing the piano

I think this was the day after we got there, but how cute is this?

Marcus went from nutcracker to nutcracker making their mouths open, lol!

Then we had the wedding. My mom was invited since they had quite a few cancellations and they said it was nice to have an extra body for the empty seat they still had to pay $50 for. Before the wedding started, Marcus was ALL over the place. The wedding was supposed to start at nap time so he wasn't a very happy little man for awhile there. Until he found the rocks anyway. He kept grabbing them and throwing them in the lake. Which actually worked perfectly since the way to the lake was down the aisle. We told the flower girl to keep going if Marcus stopped, so when he stooped down to grab some rocks, she kept going and then all the sudden you see him running down the aisle. I only got one pic since he went so fast. Standing up at the front didn't last very long and one of the groomsman's wives [I think...] took him over to another area where he could keep throwing rocks and I could stay up front with the rest of the bridesmaids.

This on makes me laugh. This is the groom thinking Marcus needs help up the stairs, lol!

With the flower girl

This is what Jamie did the entire ceremony

The reception

Jamesen got to meet some family while we were down here. This is Auntie Mandy

Uncle Jake

Uncle Nano and soon to be Auntie Dawn

Nano finally proposed and we're all really excited to welcome Dawn to the family!
We took Marcus to a park near my parents house. It's got a rock wall and Marcus went right for it. He needed help placing his feet the first two times he went up but the third he just went up like he'd been doing it his whole life!

I don't know if this will work, but HERE'S a vid off my facebook of him doing it.

Jamesen was blessed by my dad while we were there. Mom made him his blessing outfit and it was sooo cute! It has a little blue bowtie.

After church the sun was coming into the sliding glass door and the lighting was awesome so we took some pics.


And then I got some couple pics of my parents. They didn't turn out as good as I had hoped, but here are a few. The first one had a quick edit and the second is unedited. My mom is so pretty :)

Jake and Amanda brought Abby over. She's so freaking adorable. I seriously can't get enough of her! She loved Jamesen and actually said his name perfectly. I was impressed. Jake and Amanda are trying to conceive and Abby is going to make such an awesome big sister!
He's teething so he's a drool monster and she kept wiping his face off saying "that's disgusting!"

Mandy is really baby hungry so she wouldn't let him go, lol!

I was outside doing... something [I can't remember] and my dad came out and asked for my camera and then went back inside. A few minutes later he comes back out "What do I do??" Made me laugh. This is what he wanted to get a pic of.
My mom and I got some mini cupcakes for Marcus and Abby

Trying to get a good picture of a cranky toddler and baby is very hard. Add in a third person and it's about impossible. Abby was really good about smiling and looking for the camera but of course looked away the minute both boys looked at me, lol!
Moms got a bunch of light up Halloween decorations in the front and we had fun playing with them.


Max really wanted outside too! He got out and was out all night one night and ever since then he'd been trying to get out every second he could.

And a bunch of cute randoms

We missed our first flight. My parent's printer cut off half my e ticket number and the line I was waiting in took too long to get to me. Good thing they had a kid's play area since there was two hours between when my flight I missed left and the new flight boarded. Of course he pretty much sat by the window saying "WOAH!!!" the entire time since you could see the runways from where we were.

It was fun, but we're glad to be back :) We sure missed Sabe and my cloth diapers. Jamesen blew out EVERY time he pooped. Since he's a LaBare, he poops often. it wasn't fun, let me tell you!!
