Party Time!

Davis and Blair turned one on the 4th, but we had a birthday party on the 1st. It was so much fun. I can't believe our babies are one year old. Time flies! All of their grandparents and Jared, Mandy, Sam and Alex came to the party. We ate dinner, opened presents, had cake and ice cream and enjoyed visiting with everyone.

Cake time

Blair wasn't that into the cake. She didn't want to eat any of it herself - she did take a few bites when we fed it to her, but overall, she preferred ice cream

Davis liked the cake but was a little funny about it. After he first touched it, he decided he didn't like that so instead of grabbing it to eat it, he leaned over to take a bite.

Thanks to everyone who came and thanks for all of the great gifts. I feel like new toys have made my babies turn into kids. They have so much fun with the new big kid toys - they are entertained forever. They had really outgrown all the toys we had, but we wanted to wait to get new ones until their birthday. They are so fun to watch grow and learn new things.

Halloween

We had a great Halloween. We had a pretty relaxed morning and in the afternoon, I took the babies and met Spence at his office for the annual JD Clark Halloween Party. We had a pretty good time there, but we only stayed for a little while because it was nap time for the babies and they were getting pretty cranky. After that, we headed home and hung out. Grandma and Grandpa Davis came over to see the kids and we had dinner and handed out candy to the kids that came by. It was a pretty mellow holiday, but a lot of fun. Kids make all these days so much better.

These are the babies cute Halloween shirts that Grandma Erickson bought them. We were feeling festive last week so they wore them a lot. Thanks Grandma!

My babies are getting too tall. They can reach things off the end tables now and they know this is where the good stuff is. Blair spent a good amount of time on Halloween trying to get all the candy she could.

Ready for Halloween

Yesterday my friend Jodi took some pictures of the babies in their Halloween costumes and Fall sweaters. I love how they turned out. She did a great job. Thanks again Jodi!

My kids with Jodi's kids - They didn't all want to cooperate, but we needed one together since they had the same costume and Landon was a cute little banana.
