HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY MORGAN!

Morgan is 3!
It has gone so quickly!

She is in LOVE with dress-up, pretty ponies, hello kitty, Angelina Ballerina, and being a girly girl (that isn't afraid of jumping in a mud puddle!)

Here' a few pics from her little party that we had for her today.


Joe, Megan, Joey, Morgan and Jameson

Jameson is 10 months old!

We are having a great December so far!

Joey's Thanksgiving Piano Recital and more....

Joey's Piano Teacher, Ms. Bell, suggested to Joey that he have a Thanksgiving Concert for his family. So he got all dressed up and invited Bammy and Bampy over for the show...Bubba was already here (working with Joe on the addition) so Joey had quite an audience! Morgan chose to dress up for the big event too.

Mo got the kids new pj's - we're saving them for Christmas Eve...but the photo of all 3 kids is going to be Mo and Bubba's Christmas card this year (I think).

Jameson is 9 months old!

Our sweet boy is 9 months old!
He's 32 inches and almost 23 pounds - so he's a big one!
He's pulling himself up onto anything he can...and letting go for just seconds...I hope that doesn't mean he'll figure out walking anytime soon - we're not ready for that to happen!
He is getting his first tooth too!



We were able to go trick-or-treating as a family while my folks and brother passed out candy to the neighbors - it was super fun this year...Joey and Morgan figured out if a porch light was on and a pumpkin was out, it meant candy - "HURRY!" and running was involved in every exciting arrival to a door!



Happy November!

Happy Halloween!

Joey began this week with his first ever Piano Lesson - Mrs. Bell is his wonderful teacher. HE LOVES IT!


We hosted a Halloween Party and had a wonderful time!

Here are Princess Aurora and a Transformer!




The newlyweds were Gangsters! (and parents of the princess & transformer!)




Here's Dr. Love and his assistant!



We had crafts set up for the kiddos - decorating cookies and putting stickers on ghost and pumpkin foam characters.



The Romper Room was were the kids played most!



Here are the newly engaged Disco Dancers!



Before the rains came, we raked the leaves and the kids jumped in!

Pumpkins, Zoo Boo and Jack O Lanterns!

What a month we've had so far!

The kids and I traveled to Michigan for the week and had a great time with Grandma (MO), Grandpa (Bubba) and Ry Ry (Ryan)!

We went to a birthday party for cousin Caroline and got to see our cousins who live in Denver. G-ma Young also came up for the party and here she is watching her 2 messy grandaughters choose sand over a bounce castle!

This is Jillian and Morgan having fun in the dirt!



We also went and visited Blake's Farm - a pumpkin and apple farm in Michigan.










We also went to ZooBoo this past weekend and got to get dressed up a little early for Halloween! The kids got to "trick or treat" and other fun activities while seeing the sites at the zoo - here's the kiddos in their costumes - ready to go to the zoo!









Joey got to meet Biscuit - one of the zoo's mascots - Morgan wanted nothing to do with the large strange dog...



Just like last year, Em, Ron, Abby and Jake joined us!



Here's our happy family...well most of us!







It was a beautiful day today, so we carved our pumpkins!





Hope you have a wonderful October and a Happy Halloween!

We're hosting a party at our house on Friday night - (Oct. 30th 7pm) Please join us -IN COSTUME, of course!

Jameson is 8 months old!

Happy October!
Jameson is 8 months old!
He just figured out crawling...which means TROUBLE!
He is over 20 lbs and doing great!








Jameson and I went with Joey on a class field trip to Spencer Farm -





Jameson wasn't too happy about sitting on the ground and learning about pumpkins with Joey's class...mostly because he had a stinky diaper!



Rocky Ripple Festival was at the end of September - it's always great fun for the kids - including a BONGO CIRCLE!!!



Joe and his barbershop chorus - Circle City Sound - got to sing the National Anthem at the WNBA Conference Final game IN Fever vs. Detroit Shock -



Morgan, Jameson and I went to Tuttle Apple Orchard - Morgan picked 7 lbs of apples!





October is going to be a very fun month - more pumpkin patches (both in Indy and Michigan are still to come), Halloween Party and Trick or Treating...we'll continue to add the fun photos as we go!

Have a Happy Fall!



Joe, Megan, Joey, Morgan and Jameson

Jo Jo knows the 50 Nifty United States!

He told me the state and I wrote the abbreviations...he got all 50 on his own!
I'm a proud mama, what can I say!
