Our Pumpkins

We carved pumpkins Monday night! My mom and I cleaned out the pumpkins earlier in the day so when the guys got home from work, all we had to do was carve! Such a great idea for any of you with young kids! Cut down some of the time! :) We lit up our pumpkins last night and I took some fun pictures!

Here is a picture of me trying to take a picture of our pumpkins glowing. You have to take off the flash first! :)

Another one with the flash.

Can you see the picture in the pumpkin? Kylee picked that for Jayce. My pumpkin is in the back!
And here is Kylee and Jared's (in the back). Do you see the picture of Kylee's?

Halloween Pictures

Here are some new pictures. My mom likes to buy outfits for the kids around this time of year and then take pictures. They are always cute!

Here are my girls!! :) They are all just getting so big.

Here are all the cousins.

Jaxon was done with pictures! He had enough!

Later that day, we went to Jakers Pumpkin Patch and got pumpkins! Here is Jayce trying to find her way in the pumpkin patch!
My girls picking their pumpkins! It was beautiful!

Kylee would RUN around the whole maze. Such a great aciton shot!

Jayce, my Jayce!
Kylee again. I had a hard time getting pictures of her! She is so FAST!

Happy Birthday Kylee Maureen

Happy Birthday My Little Kylee!

What a sweet little girl we have and I have been so blessed to have her as our first little girl! It has been so fun to see her growing up and becoming her own little person. She has always been a little independent one! She is such a good little girl (she has her moments, like ALL of us!) Love you my girly girl!

Happy Birthday Jaycelyn Jane!

Happy Birthday Jaycers!

Two years ago today, our little sister was born. She was scheduled to come on the 23rd, but decided to come during Kylee's birthday party! What an event to have everyone at our house and me trying to hide the fact that I was having contractions and they were getting closer and closer and harder and harder. I was hoping that I could at least get through the party and then go to the hospital! Nope, that didn't work. We had to cut the party short and head to the hospital. They held me off as long as they could because I was on the blood thinner and wanted to make sure it was out of my system enough to have this baby! AT 3:03 she was born and we welcomed our little girl! She has been a blessing and joy to our family! We love you little one!

Happy Birthday Girls!

My girls (Kylee and Jayce) have their birthdays coming up so we had a little party for the family yesterday! WOW! It is so crazy to have their birthdays together. It is like having twins, or like Christmas around here! They had a great day and a big thank you to all that came and for the wonderful presents! We are so blessed to have such great families! We love you all!!

Sunday Pictures

Yesterday before church I decided to take some pictures of my girls. They were being so funny. I just can't take pictures of them. Some other person needs to so they will be better and not pull such funny faces and poses! What silly gals!

Grandpa Lund's Birthday

Last Monday, Jared, the girls, and I went down to visit Jared's grandparents for Grandpa's birthday. The girls love it down there. Here are a few cute pictures!
Kylee loved holding Jayce and Jayce loved it when Kylee held her and rocked her! Such funny girls.

Emily Laughing

I know that I haven't posted pictures in long time. A couple of weeks ago, the girls had Jared blow up some balloons for them. I do not like balloons. The sound of them when the girls scratch them, the popping sound, ick! My phobia is balloons!! Anyway, Jared blew up some balloons for them and Emily LOVED that! What a cute little girl and Kylee and Jayce are so good to her!

Trauma

Kylee had a dentist appointment this morning. Kylee and I went back in July to get our teeth cleaned. Kylee had some cavities. After hearing that, I went home and cried for a few days! I felt like the worst mom ever. What mom lets her kids get cavities! :) I know that it happens, I just felt horrible. I get super nervous going to the dentist and I think that just picturing her having to have all that work done made me feel her pain. We went back to the dentist to get them filled and that didn't work so well. She got one of her cavities filled, but it was traumatic. We tried again a couple months later, but she wouldn't have any of that. The dentist tried to use laughing gas, but she didn't like that either. Our only other option was to go to a pediatric dentist that would sedate her. SEDATE HER! Those words scared me to death. I am not much of a medicine person. They scare me. I know that they are here to help us, but they just scare me! Anyway, we made an appointment and went to see him and get her checked out. We then set the appointment for the sedation dentistry. I was feeling a little better. I knew that we had to get this taken care, no other options on that one! Well, to make a long story LONGER! She had her dentist appointment this morning, early this morning! She did great. They gave her the medicine and then we played in the waiting area. She never really showed any signs of getting sleepy. They called us back and when she sat in the chair she was sure sleepy. She slept through most of it and did get a little upset, but then calmed down. I don't think she remembers any of it! At least, I hope she doesn't. I want her to be more comfortable with the dentist than I am!

200th Post!

Can you believe it! I have been blogging for a really long time. I was just thinking and I started the blogging bit when I was pregnant with Jayce, and she turns two in just a couple of weeks! Wow, how time flys!



I have wonderful and exciting news! The basement is done being texturized! Well, the main room, the bathroom, and the linen closet! I am going to go get some primer today and then we will paint on Saturday! I am so excited for this!!!! :) Jared is too! He will soon have his "man cave." We have come along way, in a year!!! :) It seems so crazy that Jared started the framing on this last winter! Well, it is coming along now. Jared is hoping to get the other rooms hung with drywall and mudded and taped before we get the carpet. We are going to probably carpet the whole thing!
