I know, two posts in one day! Crazy huh!? Well, I've promised a few people some video of Addison walking. Apparently it was dark in the livingroom. Sorry! She walks so well now. She's not really doing a lot of falling. I think she was just getting excited in the video. I finally cut Alex's hair tonight and had to post the pics of his mohawk I gave him afterward. He doesn't like it at all! He keeps saying put my hair down while he squishes it with his hand.








These are our Halloween pics! We got some good ones. Alex had so much fun trick or treating! He went up to a bunch of houses on his own. He said trick or treat and thank you every time! It was fun watching him get so excited. You could tell his bucket was getting heavy and he was getting tired but everytime we asked him if we could carry it he said no. LOL! We also got a good family pic before church on Sunday!

Okay Joy, I've been trying to think about what I want for christmas. It gets harder as you get older and buy pretty much whatever you really want. I was thinking I'd like a comfy jacket. Something casual, maybe sporty. Could be fleece or whatever. Maybe a maroon or navy blue or green? Probably a medium unless it looks huge then get small. Another easier thought would be a Victoria's Secret gift card. Since I've stopped nursing I'm in need of some better you know whats. Either one would be a great gift and I'd always be open for something home made or if you come up with a better idea.

I'm going to try and remember to get some video of Addison walking today. Hopefully I'll post it soon!

Okay, I know I'm getting really bad at blogging. I'll try to do some real blogging later today. Thought I should get the list for Christmas out there. The deal this year is the same as last year. Everybody gets one person and the kids are there for everybody to buy for if they choose to. We drew names out of a bucket yesterday at mom and dad's so no one can accuse me of matching people up this year. lol! Guys drew for guys and girls for girls. Here it is:

gifter- reciever

Jeremy- Nathan

Dad- Jason

Jason- Dad

Josh- Jeremy

Nathan- Josh

Joy- Jenny

Jenny- Joanne

Joanne- Jilli

Jilli- Mom

Mom- Joy


I think the amount last year was thirty? Does everybody think that works again? More or less? I'll be thinking about what I want Joy. I'm going to try to get my Christmas shopping done before December. We'll see if I make it! I'm guessing Joanne is going to make up an amazon wish list again? As far as my kids go for gifts. Alex is easy to buy for, but clothes are also appreciated for both of them :) Alex is wearing 3T in everything. I like the adjustable waist for pants for my skinny boy. Addison will be getting into 12 month and is starting to run out of clothes that were given to us. I have a hard time buying clothes for her when she'll grow out of them so fast! Also, Addison doesn't have very many toys of her own. I don't even know if she would play with them if she had them though. She loves anything that belongs to her big bubs!
