A surprise visit

At 7 am (before I wake up), my doorbell rings and wakes me up. I was scared, I'm not sure why. Maybe becasue we never get visitors, especially when its barely light outside.  Or maybe because Chris wasn't here. Or  the fact that I was a little disoriented from just waking up. I hid until I heard her car start, then went to see who it was. Mom. So we spent the morning together. She had been at the temple, but her recommend expired so she came over. It was fun to chat while she was waiting for Bryan to get done at the Temple. She didn't have anywhere else to go, so I didn't feel like she was rushed.
So we made her a blog! See it HERE

September

 We celebrated both of my parents birthdays during September. For my mom, I planned a Cafe Rio dinner. It was SO good.

 I bought this trike at a thrift store. Caiden is in love with it. He NEVER used his little 4-wheeler we got him for his birthday after this showed up. And he DOES NOT share with Addysin.

 At a Connell football game. Cousins.

 Chris is volunteer coaching for the high school we went to. He loves it. This is the one game we went to this season :) They were too good, and smoked everyone that is wasnt entertaining for me to watch. And sitting with the kids in the cold isn't fun. We are going to Seattle this weekend to watch the State Championships! That'll be fun.

 Caiden saw a guy holding this helmet and asked  for it (by whining). It was hilarious. He just stood there emotionless and so happy.

 5 year anniversary!!!
 During the day, we went minivan shopping. Then for our date, we went to costco, dinner at Bonefish Grill, and a movie. For our gifts, we got a gym membership! I have loved being able to go to the gym again! Its a big part of my life because it makes me feel so good (and happy).

 Making Vegi pizza. Addysin loves helping me cook.

 Caiden is still enfatuated by ATV's of any kind.

 And loves dogs (he's flapping his arms up and down in squealing excitement).



Addysin's big haircut

One random day in August, Addysin needed a nap, was really on edge, and decided she wanted her hair like Evelyn's (short). She was mad that her pig tails were long. So, Before...

 And after... Its not a good picture of the haircut, but she got short piggy's!

Under the cape, waiting in excitement...

 Wow, its so incredible how much  babies change!
