November - warm weather and a trip to MB

Hiking along the BLRP with Mike & Kris

 We have realized that Cate has no fear and continues to amaze me with the fact that she will do anything. This poor lizard is one of those things, she caught it, carried it around for a while and even gave it a kiss (kind of grossed out by this).

Gray bought her these fairy wings (we say butterfly) at the car show- left to view cars came back with wings!

Odin is getting so big and such a great personality!

I went to get their Xmas pictures done and this is how Cate decides she is going to wait in her dress while I get brother dressed! I love them!

 Decided that brother was hungry and going to feed him herself! I don't think he thought to highly of it! Love his face...

 MY BABIES!!!! I LOVE THEM TO PIECES!!

Not so sure about Nana's babysitting skills- locking Cate in with Sampson! ha ha- she was actually making it more comfy with a blanket for her to willingly hide in!

October 2011 - it is going to be a monthly thing now...

It has taken me a while to adjust to being a mommy of 2 and staying home to take care of them is another whole adventure!

Cate has turned into a photographer... sometimes she gets some funny shots and with digital cameras- we can delete all the bad ones if we want! Most of the time they need to be deleted but here are her few from the month of September and October that are worth sharing first!

MY FAVORITE ONE OF ALL!


The Gunderson's drove down from NY to visit their 6th grandbaby and we had a great trip! We took everyone over to Doughton Park and went for a hike- it was great for them to meet little Odin! Christy and the kids made it down for a night!

How can something so sweet go from laughs to screaming in no time- watch the progression- it is amazing to me!

We were able to finish the outside of the house and put it on the market in October!

We took Cate (our bee) and Odin (our newest puppy) trick-or-treating in the dorms at Appalachian State with some friends and had the best time. I think we are in trouble because Cate kept trying to go into all the dorm rooms and hang out with the people!

her friends Raleigh, Harrison and Keira.

So concentrated on getting the decorating down so that Dadda could cut out the pumpkin- and loving her scarf, hat and mittens to keep her warm outside!

Kristen and Mike came up to help with some trick-or-treating and Cate had so much fun learning how to ask for candy and then instantly eat it!!
