Fall 2012

Monday was a fun one, I had time to gather some goodies for Boo-ing the grandchildren and got all of my errands done :) Always makes for a good day!

Here’s a few photos of the goodies and label I created for the Boo’d kiddos.

8.5x11 (2 5 16th Scallop Tags) Boo'd Girls Boo'd The boys and girls treats were very similar, Alex, Kali and Eli had fun drink cups with treats inside and Linee had a sweet baby book that I know she will enjoy, along with those I included a few window clingy pumpkins, a little ceramic pumpkin that has a night light inside, spider bubble gum and Halloween bowls to use for breakfast or snacks these next few weeks. I tucked the girls into a gift bag with flowers and the boys were placed on their front porch so they could see them when they got home. Everyone loved the  little surprise, I think Kali has figured out that I had something to do with it, but we’re not telling until Halloween. I just love holiday surprises and collecting special treats for the little ones.

I also have a few little holiday decorations here at home, I created a little collage to share some photos of them for your enjoyment.

Fall 2012

I hope your Fall is going well, happy Fall from all of us!

Two Grand Portraits

A few Sundays ago we went to Davey and Claire’s house after mass to take photos of all the grandchildren. They happened to all be wearing light blue and white and none of it was planned, but I was definitely going to take advantage of it. I snapped a few of the sweetest photos of the boys together and the girls together. I have to do a bit of editing on the four of them but I wanted to share these now. I couldn’t have asked for more, I LOVE how they both came out!

Grandparent Day @ School

The twins had Grandparent day at school this past Friday, I attended Holy Mass with Caroline and Alexa and afterward we went to the school cafeteria where Alex and Eli performed two songs with their PreK class, they were adorable and the songs were too cute! Afterward we went to their classroom where they gave me a sweet gift that they made themselves, an apple with their photo in the middle with crepe paper decorations for the leaves and border. They were both so proud of their handiwork and we were so impressed with them! I will cherish them always!

Pretty in Pink

On Friday Caroline and I attended the Blessing of the Babies Mass at SES, she was adorable in pink and had nothing but smiles for me all morning. Hope you all have a very happy week filled with lots of love and smiles!

happy girl in pink On another note, our chickens and the duck who lives in our pond also started laying. We picked three chicken eggs and two duck eggs this week so far and are trying to find where they are all laying. So far its scattered around!

Homegrown eggs I cooked a few for breakfast, quack quack is on the left and pock pock is on the right. ;)

quack and pockThe duck egg is much more orange than the chicken egg but they’re both very rich tasting and delicious! We are going to have to build a coop very soon for them so we can harvest the eggs every day rather than go hunting through the barn and pastures for them!

Caroline Ann: 17 Week Photo

We took a few weeks off of taking our “watch me grow” photos as Krista went back to work and we all adjusted to the new schedule and routines. This morning we tried to shoot one but she wasn’t in a fun mood, so we tried again after her afternoon nap and she was in a much happier mood! Here’s our baby girl at seventeen weeks!

SES Farmer’s Day and one sweet little Pumpkin!

Today is the Sugarcane Festival Farmer’s Day in our home town, we’re celebrating the farmer by dressing up in our Farmer’s Day t-shirts and wearing jeans, hats and bandanas. Eli, Kali and Alex went to school today ready to have a blast. Kali will be going on a field trip to the New Iberia Museum on Main Street and we all attended Holy Mass this morning, even Caroline was there with me. Linee playing with her baby doll this morning before going to Mass.

We are all looking forward to a great festival weekend, tomorrow morning is going to be so much fun, join us for the Children’s Parade on Main Street at 10 am. These three munchkins will be participating with their school!

Caroline: Almost 4 Months Old!

Caroline spent the Thursday and today with me while Mommy Krista worked. I was able to take a few photos of her between naps, she must be growing because that girl eats and sleeps a lot!

She’s found her feet and is grabbing her toys and putting them in her mouth. She loves her sweet baby doll and chewing on her hair! It really keeps her entertained for a while, which gives me a bit of time to edit these photos and post them to my blog and facebook!

Race for Education at SES

This week we celebrate a lot of things, the little ones had Race for Education at school and I went to walk around the block with Kali, Alex and Eli. We all had a fun time and got some good exercise too! Aunt Kiss and Caroline were there to cheer them on and walk a few laps with them too!

We’re so proud of our little ones who did their part also to make their school a better place!

 

Today the little boys went on a fun field trip with their class to a Sugarcane Farm, I didn’t get to go with them and take photos because little Linee was with me while her mom worked. Tomorrow is Farmer’s Day at school and they will all be dressed in their jeans and farmers day tshirts. I’ll be posting pics of them soon! Saturday morning they will all be in the Sugarcane Festival children’s parade. Kali will be riding on the St. Edward’s School float and dressed as an elephant and Alex and Eli will be pulled in their wagon by their parents and represent circus clowns. More pics to come soon!

First Day of Pre-K for Alex and Elijah

I created a few cute little tags for the twins to wear with the required information and remembered an idea I saw on Pinterest where you make a first day of school sign for each child. So I created one for each of the twins and went over to their house on their first day of school and took these photos. They are enjoying school and doing a great job being big boys!

I love the first photo, but I really ADORE the second one, they were soooooo excited and too cute!

Back to School Sweeties

This week Kali, Alex and Eli started the new year off. They’re in 3rd and Pre K this year at SES. Tomorrow is the twin’s first Holy Mass at school. I’m sure they’re going to be very good boys at church. Looking forward to a great new year. I shot a few photos of our happy kiddos yesterday after Aunt Eri picked them up at school.

Yesterday and Tomorrow

I’m so lucky to have baby Caroline come and stay with me while her parents go to work and Kali goes to school. Erica has been spending this week with us, she starts school next week and we’re enjoying having her at home. She’s been a big help with the little ones too. Picking Kali up from school after guitar lessons, bringing her to eat supper before dropping her off at dance class. Thanks Eri for all you do to help me and Kris! We appreciate you!

Here’s a lil picture of Caroline that I took yesterday. More to come tomorrow I’m sure once she’s here I always make time to take a few photos!

H2O Hydrate!

I found a very pretty water pitcher Saturday while Dave and I were shopping at TJ Maxx and knew it would entice me to drink more water. Add a pretty glass and tray for collecting moisture and its just lovely on the center island in the kitchen. Lightly flavored with a few thin slices of lemon and I’m off to a great start getting all my water in for the day!

H2O Web Hope you all remember to stay hydrated and have a super Monday!
