Catch up!

Been busy as usual! We never seem to slow down around here. The kids are all doing well, and are as cute as ever.
Corbin getting the "golden" ball at his football game! He is OBSESSED with football! He asks everyday if there is a football game on TV, Chris is in heaven!
Claire likes to "hug" caroline for pictures. Caroline does not feel the same.
Adorable.
Corbin and one of his best buddies. He has made so many friends this year. He loves his friends!
Grammy and the little cupcake on Halloween.

All the cousins- Halloween fun!
This is Corbin's pumpkin that he made with Chris.
Wow- they don't look happy, but I swear they were!
All the kids that went trick or treating with us... I love all these kiddos.
Love this sweet mama's girl! She has become such a mommy's girl! I can't be out of her sight when we are at home, or she starts yelling for me.
This is Chris' birthday cake. I had to get hearts, stars and footballs so that all three kids would be happy!

my beautiful girls
Claire and her nana
Nothing like a almost two year old fueling up on cheetos and cupcakes
the cupcake trick or treating. she loved it, and totally understood!
The three kiddos at their uncles wedding this weekend. They all did such a great job in the wedding. Such a pretty wedding. These three were just adorable!
My two boys. Love them!

Daddy and his princess.
Claire and Caroline were not happy at this point! I still love the picture though.
My three kids DANCED the entire night. I was worried their little legs would be sore. I am telling you they were shaking it all night. They didn't stop moving until it was over. It was pretty cute to watch.
Corbin's favorite move was running and sliding across the dance floor. He did it ten million times.


The cutest ring bearer, flower girls and best man I have ever seen :)

Halloween pictures

This weekend we had our annual pumpkin carving/Halloween picture party at Aunt Natalies. I look forward to this every October. The kids always have fun, and the pictures are always soooo adorable.
My three precious kids. I just can't get over how much I love this picture or Captain Rex, My Little Cupcake and Rapunzel.
The sweetest Cupcake in the land

The last 6 weeks....

Caroline helped celebrate my birthday in true toddler style...
We have been busy since school started. Time has flown by. Corbin loves kindergarten, and has adjusted really well. He does come home SUPER tired though, and catches up with naps on the weekends. Claire loves school too, and is learning a lot of new things. Caroline has gotten SO big.... makes me a little sad. They are the best little people, and definitely keep Chris and I ridiculously busy.
My PRINCESS on her first day of pre-school. Caroline joined in the pic. Claire has become quite a hard kid to dress for school. She is super opinionated on what she wears. She ONLY wants to wear dresses now. Winter is going to be difficult..... because her latest thing is she only wants FLIP FLOPS with her dresses
She has become the best little bike rider. doing it in your Tangled Halloween costume makes you even better in case you were wondering.
Sweet Bubbie. His first day of Kindergarten. The transition has been MUCH easier than I ever could have imagined. Other than being really tired at the end of the day all is perfect. He is very happy, and LOVES to play with his friends. He just got his first report card, and did well. Kind of crazy that I have a kiddo old enough to get a report card. wow.
My kids with all their cousins and Grammy.

Corbin has started flag football. He has learned a lot, and each game gets better. Some of the kids on his team have football down. They are awesome, Corbin is learning, and having fun.

Cousin love




This morning we went on a really long bike ride to the park. The kids had fun, and it wore them out for naps. I think we are approaching no training wheel days. i think.
Doesn't get much cuter than this.





Today Corbin got the special GOLDEN ball at his football game. We were proud, and he was beyond happy. The smile is still on his face.

How did this happen....

How did my sweet baby boy grow up so fast. How is tomorrow his first day of kindergarten? It just seems like yesterday he was drinking bottles and snuggling up with his pacifier and dog dog. I am so excited for him, because I know he is going to thrive and love school. It just makes me realize how fast our babies grow up. I try hard to cherish every single second with our babies, but for crying out loud can time just slow down a little? I wish so badly I could take him to school tomorrow. That is the one stinky part of being a teacher, you can't miss the first day of school. Chris will do well and give me minute by minute updates. Chris cried the first time he left Corby at preschool, Corbin cried harder. I hope there are no tears tomorrow, just happy smiles. I sure do love my sweet baby boy. No matter how big he gets, how many candles are on his birthday cake, he will always be my baby boy.

The amount of love I have for this boy is immeasurable. He makes me so happy, and fills my life with such joy. I love my sweet Corbin and hope he has the best first day of Kindergarten, and a super awesome year.

Hi there

I haven't been a good blogger this summer. No time I guess. We have really had the BEST summer. I really have not wasted one day with these kiddos. Each and every day we have had a lot of fun, and enjoyed being together. Going back to work is going to be really hard on all of us. We have been very schedule free and loved it. We have gone to 9pm movies at the theater, we have stayed in jammies until noon some days. The kids have been able to do TONS of fun stuff this summer. Last summer was hard since Caroline was so small. Now she just goes along with the group, and keeps up WELL!
The kids had their first sleep over. They had three friends spend the night. They had a lot of fun, and all I can say is by the morning most kids were in our bed.
Morning snuggles while drinking chocolate milk and watching a show- this is our routine :)!
Play doh fun. Caroline refuses to sit in chairs, she prefers to sit ON tables. whatever.
This picture makes me laugh. I took this while Chris was mowing. This is how he mows under the trampoline.
This is her party trick shaking face.
Playing babies- all with paci's.


A lot of time has been spent at the beach- by far my kids favorite place to be. They are so happy there, as am I. They play hard all day, and really have gotten to be good little fishermen. Corbin caught a "keeper" while out on the boat. He was SO proud. He told me tonight while being put to bed that he wants to keep his next keeper in the freezer then put it on his wall. Little does he know how expensive that would be. I am going to buy him a poster at the beach this week with all the saltwater fish on it, so that he can mark off all the ones he catches!
* One more week of summer, to say I will miss being home with my babies is the understatement on the century. I love every second of being with them. They are the best. How did we get so lucky?
