Night Night

Brooklynn & Nikolas pretending to sleep (they were snoring, it was cute).

My little Yoda...

Walker was Yoda this year, for his first Halloween!! He was ADORABLE!

Dinosaurs say..."vroom-vroom"

Nikolas actually got in his Dinosaur costume tonight, with only a few tears. He did really well in it. He played with his vroom-vrooms all

night long.

It isn't easy being a princess...

Of Course for Halloween Brooklynn had to be a princess. I found the cutest Princess/fairy costume, it has wings on the back, very cute.

The Princess and her doggies

Brookie and the dogs (they got dressed up too). They didn't have any costumes so Ramses borrowed one of my shirts (it said Brunette and proud), Calyx has one of Nik's that says Spoiled Rotten and loving it.

The Whole gang...

Nonna tried really hard to get a picture of all of us. Of course not everyone ever looks at the same time.

We LOVE Unkie!

Pretty Please Unkie try to get a job in Austin so you can come play with us all the time :)

Flying & Diving...

Nikolas loves diving and flying with Unkie :)

reading with Unkie

The kids love it when Unkie Brian comes to town to play with him. Brooklynn is even able to say Unkie now :)

Walkers first time eating cereal...

Walker tried cereal for the first time tonight, I think he liked it. At first he wasn't too sure and spit it out...but it didn't take long for him to take a bite and keep it down.

Getting ready to eat...mmmm, can't wait!!

It's always fun going to the DR!!!

With 3 kids it is 3 times the fun at the Dr's. Luckily Eric was there or I may have left crying. I am glad he got to see how chaotic it is, this was his first time going with me to get their shots. While getting the kids out of the car, I got my foot stuck on the seat and fell backwards- while holding Brooklynn. Luckily I managed to keep her perfectly fine- but my bottom and foot aren't as lucky. Brooklynn hit her eye really hard on a step stool in the Dr's office and I had to get ice. Nikolas was throwing a fit, because he remembers what happens at the Dr's Office. Walker was super fussy because he is teething and wanted to eat the whole time we were there. Eric and I ended up getting flu shots too, those things hurt- I think Eric has says that about 5 times since we got them this afternoon. Nikolas got a flu shot, Walker got one and 3 other shots, and Brooklynn had 4 and her finger pricked to check for anemia- poor babies, they were definitely not happy when we finally left. Brooklynn is 20 pounds (even), she is starting to be in the 15-25 percentile, her baby fat is slowly going away. Walker is 17 pounds and 13 ounces (in the 50th percentile), and his height is in the 15th- still fat and short :) Nikolas didn't get weighed today since he was just there for a flu shot, but last time he was there a month ago he was about 21 pounds...they are all so close in weight it is crazy. I was SO happy to be done with all the shots, unfortunally Walker goes back next month for another flu shot and Nikolas goes to get his weight checked. Then 2 months later Brooklynn and Walker go in for the 9 month and 18 month check ups and we get to do it all over again!

Mommy's Happy Little Chunk!

Grandma Candy & Walker

Grandma Candy has been spending a lot of time with the kids lately, she has been a big help!

Mommy & her little man!

Okay, it isn't the best picture of me (pretty bad actually), but you can see how big he is, it isn't always easy to tell in pictures :)

don't bother me mom, soccer is on!

Big boy Walker sitting on the couch watching soccer (just like his daddy). I had to stand in front of him to get his attention.

Roarrr...

I got Nikolas a dinosaur costume for Halloween, but he HATES wearing it. He threw the biggest fit putting it on (we have tried it on several times). Eric got it on him the other night and distracted him for about 20 minutes- the best so far! I took a picture of him in it, just in case he doesn't end up wearing it on Halloween. Brooklynn loves her costume it is a princess/fairy costume, she likes to look at herself in the mirror. Walker is going to be Yoda- he looks really cute in it.

This baby is SOOO loved !

Walker gets smothered in hugs and kisses all day long.

He loves his big brother and sister :)

Nik's got a new pair of shoes...

I got Nikolas a new pair of shoes the other day. They are Elmo and they light up. He was so excited when they came in the mail, he wanted to put them on right away, and didn't want to take them off all night. Even Brooklynn loved them. YES, he is pushing his sisters doll stroller- but if it helps at all he pushes it around the house and chases the dogs and says "vroom-vroom".

what a good Big sissy!

Brooklynn continues to get better and better with the baby. She loves to kiss him and hug him, but does occasionally still whack him in the face (usually when we least expect her to). He is just mesmorized by her, and his big brother. They are always making Walker laugh, and play games with him. The first thing Brookie says in the morning is "Hi baby".

Brookie wearing daddy's hat!

The other day while Eric was at work, Brooklynn walked around with his hat on most of the day. She would only put it on backwards- it was adorable!

Daddy's Big Boy!
