Oct 6-12

My mom and I went shopping for a mother daughter day with Kaylee, while Matt took the other three kids to the Mad Hatter Tea Party.  I was sad to miss it, but so happy to have a quiet day with my mom.  Kaylee was a super good baby, and we had such a nice time.  The kids loved the tea party as always.  Lucas chose the adorable superman "L" hat that Ashly made him for his birthday for his hat, and the girls chose crowns.  They told us all about everything when we got home.  The face painting was amazing this year.  I almost couldn't bare to let Emilyn wash her cute face!  They have especially loved these cute rabbit pocket watches that they got as a party favor.  Lucas carries his all over in his pocket, and takes it with him to bed.

My girls!

We loved having Grandma Karen here for the week!  The kids all fight over her attention!

Kaylee and Grandma both need naps!

Can't get enough of this precious baby smile!

Matisyn shared her special cow Wisconsin with Kaylee that she has had since she was a tiny baby girl.  She thinks Kaylee needs a special stuffed animal too.

Cheering on the 49ers with Grandma.

The kids always want Grandma to put them to bed.  It's the only time Mommy is not their first choice!  Emilyn and Grandma reading books together before bed.

While my mom was here we took Owen and Lucas to the Dinosaur Museum.  These two are characters together, and loved exploring the dinos together.

Pouting on the floor of the dinosaur museum after not getting his way!

Kaylee loved shopping with Grandma and Mommy.  We are starting her out early!  I love this expression!

Kaylee all bundled in her "bassinest".  She has all blue swaddle blankets from Lucas!  This is where she sleeps next to me in our room at night.  She still sleeps downstairs all over the place for naps during the day.  She is getting very accustomed to noisy surroundings and is able to sleep through some serious commotion!
