slacker blogger... oops!

I am really lousy at keeping this blog up sometimes. I could list all of my excuses but I will spare you and just get to the updates! Warning: picture overload (if there is such a thing)!

Alyson reading to Trevor and Abby (what a nice aunt and uncle)!

This is a really tired boy! He loves sandwiches but this day he was just too tuckered out to even finish. poor kid

No, I did not pee my pants. I was changing Tyson's diaper on the floor by a corner shelf. Carter came over and touched the shelf and it tipped right over. I caught it before it hit Tyson but I didn't catch the candle that was in the candle warmer. It splashed all over us. Luckily I took the brunt of it but it did get on Tyson's bare belly. I was so scared that it burned him but he didn't seem bothered by it at all. I was just glad that he was okay. My pants and shirt and the carpet are another story. Oh well.

We went over to the homecoming parade in Evanston.

It starts right by my in-laws house so we just walk out the door and have the best spot.

here is Tyson at the parade - he was toasty!

Here are all they grandkids that could get the candy - they sure had fun!

Here is their big pile of candy

Abby and Paige are sure getting to be good friends! (her cousin)

This is my baby sucking his thumb - well almost

he really did have his thumb in his mouth but as soon as I pushed the button his thumb came out. He is such a cute little guy though!

If you are still with me-thanks for sticking it out through it all. We have been up to quite a bit but this is what we captured on camera.
