Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving we wanted to go somewhere fun. Brian wanted to drive to Boston but what would we do there with our little rascals. We decided to go to an indoor water park and ended up at one right in Columbus. It was great! Some of our friends and their families went too, and we had a lot of fun. It wasn't a huge water park but it was perfect with little kids. They had a Thanksgiving deal with water park passes, a night stay and Thanksgiving dinner. It was great to not have to make anything or clean it up.

The little kid area where we mostly hung out.

Of course the boys had to get ice cream. Like father like son.

Our Thanksgiving dinner table that we didn't have to set.

My cute little family that I am so Thankful for.

Halloween fun!!!

8 months

Reece is 8 months old today!

She is moving and crawling all over now.

She loves to eat baby food and her favorite things are yogurt melts and puffs.
Loves chewing on her thumbs and slobbering.

She loves watching her brother when he's not bugging her to death.
She loves her tag blanket and plug when she sleeps.
Up until a few nights ago she was still waking up a million times. I finally moved her to the pack n play in the basement to let her cry it out a little. She is sleeping soooo much better.
She loves to jump in her jumparoo with her hair flopping all over. It's pretty cute.
She's so loud and crazy at church during sacrament. ( just like her brother)

We just love this little gal and are so happy she is in our family.

North Carolina

Brian's best friend Cody is in PA school at Duke University and our little family went down to North Carolina to visit his family. It has been about a month since we went but I had to post about it.

The kids playing around

When we lived in Logan, Brian worked in a lab on campus and Elizabeth was his boss. They became good friends. She now works at North Carolina State University so we went to visit her.

Duke's campus is so neat, it's one of those campuses you see in the movies.

another cool building.

One of the days we were there we went to Duke Gardens. It was such a pretty place!

Looking at the different lily pads and not at the camera.

End of Summer

It has been another great summer in the great state of Ohio (except for studying for boards and the constant grease on my shiny head.) We went to a place called the Olentangy Indian Caverns and Davis and I played miniature golf. There was also a little town for kids to play in and an Iroquai long house. The caverns cost too much so we didn't even see them.

This is Reece with some bed head.

Davis woke up early and couldn't make it to our bed.

Chubs is eating baby food now and loves it.

Davis wanted a Hulk cake for his birthday and what Davis wants, Davis gets!

A bunch of mothers from the ward took their kids to the fire station. Weee!

Davis got a good haul for his b-day

I had my half-way to graduation party with my whole class. It was at a really cool park and good times were had by all.

They told us to take pictures of our work so we can show them in our offices some day. Well if you need dentures I can have you looking just like this in no time! These were actually my first dentures I ever made. The red on the one is where we had to break them and then fix them again.

Davis came to his first dental visit while I was on a Pediatriac rotation. No cavities and he got a sticker so it was a great day.

Birthday Boy!

Davis is the Big 3 today! Happy Birthday little guy we love ya!
