We've been having fun

 Just some pictures of us hanging out the last few weeks.

Oh Dear...so Sadie and Ben were both crawling around the house pretending to be cats (sometimes it's dogs, horses, frogs, etc...) Anyway so the next thing I know they come out to the dining room like this. And suddenly Sadie is the cats owner and and she has Ben on a leash (belt...) um yah I got a picture and then I had to tell them it probably wasn't very safe but they did have a lot of fun :)

 Having fun with dress up! I'm sure Ben will not appreciate thi\ese pictures someday but honestly how adorable are they? And how awesome is it that they have so much fun together?!

 What is the deal with this girl and stickers?? Actually I had to ground her from them for a few days because I kept finding them on the tables, the picture frames, and wood floor and couldn't get them off. Hopefully she figured it out and will only put them on paper or people :) haha

 They are just too adorable. I love my kids!

 Painting pumpkins. This year we painted them because Eli was on call and I wasn't sure when we would ever be able to carve them and since he is the one who always carves we thought we'd give this a shot. The kids loved it!

 Notice in the picture below there are some light black streaks painted on my wall in the background...Oh Ben...good thing we are hoping to re-paint the house sometime in the next few months!

Yesterday we went to the mall with a friend so I could run into bath and body works for something and we let the kids play at the mall playground. Anyway I was counting my kids as they were running around. You know just keeping track of them and it suddenly hit me. I have 3 kids! I am in charge of 3 human beings. And I was sort of like HOLY CRAP! But at the same time my heart just filled with joy and with pride! I feel so blessed to have such beautiful, healthy, happy children! Being a mom is by far the hardest thing I have ever had to do in my entire life and I'm sure I'll have many days where it gets even harder but I am so thankful that I get the opportunity to have these special spirits in our home they bring me so much happiness and love!
