Bath, Zoo, Halloween and More

Fun times painting with shaving cream in the bath. That's one way to liven up an evening!

 We were able to go to the zoo for a fieldtrip. Sara and Hannah came too! 
 He loves his baby brother and wants to share everything with him. 


 Laylah and I loved the otters. 
 Hannah and Laylah looked like they may be into some trouble, but they were just sharing a coloring book :)

 He likes flax seed... Strange wild lookin child..
 Speaking of strange children, the obsession with the belly button lives on! Ha! I noticed this one day!?

There is always a long list of 'projects' going on in my brain this week was projects for the kids room. I designed some plaques, cut them out of paper, traced them onto wood, cut them with a saw and routed them (Kyle did some and I did some) let's just say it took a LONG time, especially in a cold, dark garage! But they are done and then I started painting. I'll take pictures when it's all done. 
I made this valance for their room recently too. I really want to finish all the details and be done with their room! 

Finally fixed and painted this cool old rocking chair I bought at a garage sale for $3
 We had a blast at our next field trip to a pumpkin farm. They had a HUGE corn pit for the kids, mazes using bales of hay, slides, animals, hay rides etc. Fun times with cute cousins. 









Next adventure was for Kyle and I. We went to a 'black light party' at Malia's house.  

Kalel couldn't wear a mask or have weapons at school so I just painted one on him instead. 
 After school he was back to being a ninja and hiding in the garbage can until Dad came home. 
 Trick-or-Treat! Ninja, robber, $, Princess 

 


Kyle dressed up too! He and Jen look fabulous!

 Big boy walking along furniture and always smiling. 
 Laylah is my helper, all day everyday. She wants to be with Mom - brushing my hair, painting my nails, cooking, sitting on my lap etc. She would much rather do these things than play with her toys. 
 This is how we kept the kids entertained while we watched conference. 

 Yes those were Kyle's fingers...

 It's fun to go see the progress on the Payson temple. 

 This is how Kyle keeps him entertained while he does the dishes. 
 Kalel drew me a picture of himself. Love it! :)
 This is the beginning of his wildness... Seriously look at those skills. He is just balancing there!

This is his favorite chair. 

 This is what I get to see in my mirror as I get ready sitting by the bathtub. 
 Loves to climb in his toybox.


 Cuties headed over to a birthday party.
 Flyin' high with Dad


I busted out the paint recently to make a sign for our homeschool room.

 Teamwork - Kalel and Jay trying to life up the tarp to play in the sandbox. 

 Dash and Ruby
 This girl loves the guitar and will play every chance she gets. 

 It's always a surprise to see what I'll find when I check on the kids. Laylah has lots of pink. She is sleeping with - notepad, snowglobe, baby with pillow and blankets, baby toilet, paper, pen and book. Kalel has loads of animals on his bed everynight. And his treasure box which tonight has - erasers, gun, pellets, hamster, keys, key chain, fuzzy balls, bird etc. 

"Mom, watch this!" I had no idea she could do that!
