Oh and here is one of my favorite guys these days...

I just love to kiss his little chubby cheeks all day long!! He is such a good baby and we just love our little E to pieces!! He sleeps really well, smiles all day, eats a lot, and puts up with his sisters!! We love you almost 5 month old E!!!

Other things

I got my hair done (it had only been like 7 months since the last time so it was desperately needed)

Krissy babysit the girls for a night so Jake and I went on a real date!!!

and Maddie May turned 3!!!

She awoke to find lots of balloons in her room that we put in the night before (which Sammy LOVED helping with). We had a fun Maddie day for her birthday!! We watched a movie, went to Jump on it, ate dinner of her choice (chicken nuggets), opened presents, played with toys, and ate cake and icecream (she mostly just ate frosting)! We love our Maddie. At three years old she loves:

princesses, dressing up like a princess, watching movies with princesses, pretending to be a princess and a cat, being right by Mommy's side all day, hugging Ethan, playing ponies and pet shops with her sister, and being a BIG sister.

and this is her true side!!!

Where did November go???

First part of the month, I made the girls matching dresses.

and yes this is the only pic i got of yours truly, Maddie May

And Halloween night!

The kids had a blast on Halloween night!! We all started out together but Ethan only lasted about 15 minutes because then he was hungry!! I took him him and fed him and gave out candy while Jake took out the girls for an hour. He then brought them home and I took Sammy out again with her friends for another hour! She didn't want to stop, she LOVED it!! She was upset when we missed a house!!! It was a fun night and I am glad that they had fun!!
