Fun filled day!

Its official...Lauren is now a ballerina!

We got an early start yesterday so that we could get Lauren up and dressed for her first day of ballet class!

She was VERY excited!

The boys weren't exactly pleased to be up so early.

Lathan

Logan
He just isn't a morning person!!!

Emmy was in town and got to come with us to class.

Lauren, Emmy & Aunt JuJu

At the beginning of class, the babies did an obstacle course. Miss Jackie would help them over the mailbox and then clap for them.

Lauren kept coming back so that Miss Jackie would clap for her!

"I said don't touch me"

After class we picked up Logan and Lathan and we all headed down to the Galleria.

Loving our Podees!

We had lunch at Cheesecake -

Lauren, Emmy & Aunt JuJu

Lauren LOVES the bread there...its her favorite!

Lauren and Logan

Lathan
There wasn't enough room for three high chairs at our table so they brought Lathan a booster seat. That lasted about 3 seconds!

Logan's Black Bean Beard

Off to do more shopping - Emmy hiched a ride in the Choo Choo Wagon.

Logan didn't like being the only boy and demanded that Lathan get his seat back!

Silly Lauren

Isn't Emmy PRECIOUS!!!

We had plans to meet Aunt Pammie out at Old MacDonald's farm but it turns out they are only open weekends in November. Instead we met Grammie, Aunt Pammie and Daddy at Chuy's for dinner.

Emmy and Aunt JuJu left this morning...sniff sniff, but will be back for Thanksgiving. We can't wait!!!

Halloween '07

Fun stuff...

Today, after lunch, the babies and I carved our pumpkins...

Lauren, Logan & Lathan

Logan rubbing pumpkin in his hair!

Lathan kept rolling his pumpkin onto the floor!

The boys got antsy so I let them down to play. Lauren, however, was very entertained and "helped" until all of the pumpkins were cleaned and carved!

I gave the trio a bath and then put them down for a nap. When they woke up Grammie, Aunt Pammie and Grandpa all came over to help us celebrate Halloween!

The Boys and Grandpa

I took Lauren outside to light the pumpkins and she took off for the neighbors house... I guess she saw the other kids leaving with candy!

Grammie and Logan (She made his costume - so very cute!!!)

Grandpa and the Trio

The little ones sure have done a lot of growing since 10/31/06! (Though these costumes make them look pretty big, Lauren was only about 12 1/2 lbs at the time!)

After dinner we set out for our very first trick or treating! (Grammie also made our trick or treating pumpkin bags!)

Daddy and the little ones

Our first house to trick or treat!

We encountered a real live ELMO!!!

Trick or Treatin'

Back at home:

The Trio

Out of all the toys in the house, REAL remotes and cell phones are like gold!

Lathan on the Defense

Uh Oh Lathan!

Brushing our teeth (well at least two of them are!)

Happy Halloween!

P.S.
Thanks to our AWESOME grandparents who made this day extra special. Grammie's hand made costumes and treat bags plus our treats, Granny's pumpkins full of goodies and Grandpa Kenny's Elmo bucket full of our favorite Gerber snacks...You Guys Are The Best!!!
