Halloween 2012

This Halloween Delaney was Jem, the 80's cartoon rock star, Lucy was Katy Perry, and Finn was a fireman. I dressed up as an 80's girl for Zack's halloween birthday party! Nana was a biker chick with leather chaps and vest! Halloween was filled with the traditional classroom festivities and costume parade at TCW. Finn and I even got to help with Lucy's classroom party! We went to the Cannon's for their annual block party and they roasted a pig for dinner. There were a ton of kids trick or treating together and they loved it! Finn really understood this year and didn't want to miss a house! Delaney was excited because she got to trick or treat at her teacher Mrs. Hoskin's house!

Sea World Halloween Spooktacular

We took the kids to this event at sea World today- it was a lot of fun! They got to go trick or treating in the park and we watched a special halloween-theme Sesame Street show. They had a bunch of game booths set up, and each girl won a prize- Delaney won a giant stuffed Shamu for knocking all the bottles over! We went to church this morning to watch Delaney sing, so we only spent about 5 hours in the park, but that was enough! We've been to Sea World a lot this year!

My Birthday!

I had a fun day that started with watching Delaney's choir perform at church! She did so good and was adorable! When they stood to sing, she was the smallest in the bunch!

Then I took Lucy to her friend Lily's birthday party at Little Gym in Port Orange. I love seeing she and her friends play and be silly together! Then Lucy and I went to Target to get some finishing touches for the girls' Halloween costumes. We played with colored hair spray, had dinner made by Kenny, then a nice brownie cake. They were trying to surprise me and light the candles in the laundry room, but as soon as Finn saw the cake he started singing his own version of "Happy. birthday"! So cute!

Homemade Donuts!

The girls and I decided to make donuts from biscuits! You just cut out the center, fry in vegetable oil, then toss in cinnamon sugar! Yummy! Everyone loved them!

Finn Gets Physical...

So Finn isn't even 20 months old...he doesn't say much, but his physical/gross motor development is crazy! This morning he started doing forward rolls and he started galloping!! He already jumps with two feet off the ground and runs like a mad-man! He climbs on everything and loves to wrestle! Such a BOY!!

Goofy in the car

He really could hang at Rainbow Park

He said "No baby" to Kenny- like don't hold me like a baby!

He's got the hang of corn on the cob!

Celebrating the first week of school with the Deisings at Time Out Frozen Yogurt

Lucy's 1st Day of Ballet/Tap/Tumbling at Amanda's Dance

Yogurt Butt- gross!

Jake slept over for the first time!!

I never want to forget how he feeds himself at this stage! He uses two hands!

Finn reaches out to grab our hands to sing the blessing, and he even is able to hum the tune! Sometimes he even closes his eyes really tight!

Looks so big in his crib!

The Big Boys!

Finn really liked this mannequin at Bealls.

HAHA!

Twins!

Delaney and Lucy loved Mina, the chihuahua that Dan and Rhonda were dog-sitting.

Jordan came over to play after school with Lucy and they had a tea-party lunch!

Kids playing at the Fantasy Football Draft Party!  They were trying to choreograph a dance!

The benefits of the girls being back in school- Finn and Mommy time at the library!
