November

So... here we are again. Way behind on posting. I guess I'm just not feelin' it for the blog these days.  But since Aunt Amber is pretty insistent that she needs an update, here we go.  

The November Highlights

We took selfies.

Eli got a weird rash.  Twice.

Isaac built... an awesome thing.

Raya got new hair.  And a lot of attitude.

She likes to double-fist it with the crayons.

We built an awesome lego house.

... with some help from Ababa.

Raya was cute. (Photo credit to Eli.)

We did some laundry.

A good time was had by all.

October

It is apparently becoming my custom to spill many photos in one big post about once a month.
I guess that means I'm... a) busy b) lazy c) uninspired d) all of the above.

So without further ado.  Here was October in Pictures.

Becoming a Daddy's Girl?!  Surely not.

Watchin a Movie 

We found a toad

We love cereal

She's just cute.

Again, with the cereal.

So proud that she learned to take her jammies off!

Cutest Pumpkin Pi ever.  :) 

A Pirate and a Cowboy... and a skeptical sister.

Now pass the Candy Please!

September Wrap-Up

Since it's the middle of October, it seems about time for a September Photo Wrap-Up for all the things I didn't get around to posting.  You know, all 2 or so times I posted.

Chalk Drawings on the sidewalk (and everywhere else)

  

And a silly new grin she likes to do

Isaac made an Apple Creature for Apple Week at school

Playing at the park

Chillin in the pool

We ran a 5k.

Isaac won his age group!

Then we rode the horse.

More Chalk Drawings

And the boys brought me flowers for my birthday.

:)

One From The Olden Days.

This gem of a picture surfaced on facebook lately, and for the Love of All Things Awesome, I just had to record it forever in blogland.  

Behold:  Here am I, circa 1990.  

That's right folks. An Undefeated Champion.

You didn't know you were in the midst of Celebrity, did you?!

(I know the picture is not high resolution, but I am the one sitting on the side of the truck on the far side... the red hat guy is right behind my shoulder.)  

I think it adds a whole new level of Awesome that I still have that shirt.

And I still wear it sometimes.

Because there is nothing as Awesome as being my age and still fitting into a shirt you wore in the 3rd grade.  Ha. 

One Last Summer Day

(So this happened a few weeks ago.  I am really on top of this blogging thing lately.)  

One late summer day, the weekend was forecasted to be summer-hot, and we held a personal celebration of those last summery days.

The Pool!

(Don't judge Raya's hair.  Clearly, I was slacking off not finished with it yet.) :)

Gasp!

Ah!  It's cold!

Eli comes to stomp around too.

Which was fun.

But he had important work to get back to.

So they played without him.

Isaac taught Raya to shoot.

Ready... Aim... Fire!!

It was a good day. 

And Other Things Random and Resembling Regular Life.

Here's a non-event photo catchup!  

We played Balloons.

Ate zucchini from the garden

Had big hair. 

Drank some juice.

Borrowed a convertible and took it for a spin.

Petted some ponies.

Talked on the... phone?

Played some game where it involved making a huge mess

Mowed the lawn

Drove the boat.

And drove the boat some more.

Ate some hair goo. (Her favorite part of hair time!)  

Generally acted cute and refused to sleep.
