Reading "Frozen" (a favorite right now!)...

This little sneaky girl loves mom's grapefruit (a pregnancy craving). She sits and smiles at me, and the opens her mouth until I put a spoonful inside!

Dressing up is a very integral part to our day. (Also...Lucy and Quinn have miraculously learned that they like each other...and they can play with each other! It has been a rough couple months of teasing and screaming...)

Cooper is constantly reading. He reads in the strangest places, in the strangest positions!

What a good big brother!

Quinn's November Preschool Camp!

We love preschool camp! Quinn went in the beginning of November. They learned about shapes, and they did lots of fall crafts. He had so much fun...maybe next time we can get him to actually take off his jacket!

More Sickness

Are you getting sick of all of our sickness posts?! Yeah, me too! I'm not quite sure who keeps tapping us with the sickness stick, but they can stop!!

Right after Halloween, we were hit with the stomach bug, again! The hardest part was that it hit Scott and I at the same time. It was a 72 hour sickness. I got it first, and I ended up with problems all around. I couldn't even keep water down. I went to a doctor's appointment, and she sent me right down to infusion to get fluids with Zofran (anti nausea medicine). It was magical! I finally could see straight again, and I could keep down fluids.

Scott was sick the next day. He had to take several days off of work. On top of all of this, he had a horrible virus where he had problems breathing from enlarged tonsils (we learned from the ENT and ER visit...). 

It was a rough couple of weeks, but once again, we survived! (And this girl did a great job at keeping us company!)

Halloween!!!

Halloween night! Scott took the kids outside, and he did his annual photoshopped pictures of the kids! 

Macey was Evie from "Descendents"

Paleontologist Cooper!

Fairy Jemma!

Quinn, as Nephi!

Lucy as Elsa from Frozen!

We started off the night with some pumpkin pizzas from Papa Murphys!

Ready to go!

It was so cold trick-or-treating this year! We put clothes on under costumes...and we wrapped the kids in the stroller in a blanket. But by the end of the night, I had Lucy wrapped in my jacket and everyone had chattering teeth!

Quinn was Nephi for Halloween, and he was so excited to see "himself" on the front of the New Era Magazine!

Halloween Parade!

Halloween is such a stressful day! The kids all got to wear their costumes to school...which meant waking up extra early to do hair and make up. Macey was Evie from the movie Descendents, Jemma was a woodland fairy, and Cooper was a paleontologist!

We got them off to school, and then I got to enjoy some Lucy snuggles!

The best part of the day was watching the parade! Jemma had morning Kindergarten, so she rode the bus home, ate lunch, and then I dropped her back off at school to walk in the parade!

Quinn watched me pack snacks, so he was pretty upset when we got to the park and I wouldn't give him some. It took a couple Ritz Cracker bribes to get me a normal picture from him!

The parade goes in order of grade, so we saw Jemma, Cooper and then Macey!
