Trick or Treat


This Halloween was JAM PACKED with fun. After the Kids donned their outfits, Ella a WSU cheerleader and Cole a Pirate, we headed off to a kids program put on by the City of Bozeman. The kids did arts and crafts and boogies to the music while chasing bubbles. Fun was had by all. We went home for a quick nap and onto Downtown Bozeman's First Trick or Treat. Ella had the saying down by the time we hit all the stores. What a great idea it began at 3pm so it was still warm and sunny. We then went home and Cole who was nap free fell asleep in the car. After a quick nap he awoke ready for more Trick or Treating. We all went around the neighborhood and Cole showed of his tricks for candy and Ella proudly said "Trick or Treat" and "Thank You". Cole also asked most of the neighbors if they had kids, or any pets. He is just so outgoing and friendly. I gotta keep an eye on that one. Both kids slept well and went to bed with no fuss.

Chuck E Cheese Visit


The Kids have to be REALLY good in order to make a trip to Montana's ONLY Chuck E Cheese in Billings, MT. It is a 2 1/2 hour drive. Both Cole and Ella were amazing on the drive down and back. Ella was dry the whole day. She made sure to let me know when she had to go potty. I was really impressed. We have her wear panties but not for long car rides especially when the exits are several miles apart. Ella enjoys being a big girl.

It's MY birthday!


Can you believe that this grumpy faced baby is now TWO! She is growing into a independent, do what I want and by myself little girl. She enjoys Bath time, Dress Up, saying No! and refers to Daddy as
"Not Mommy".
This little Girl is sweet and sings herself to sleep when we ask if she is tired. Just watch out for her mood swings when she gives you this look you better stand your ground or she will wrap you around her little fingers. We had a special dinner of Macaroni and Cheese with Waldorf salad and Jello. It was all Yummys and the Cake was a hit. Cole was disappointed because he got full and could not finish his piece of cake.
Ella enjoyed all her gifts. Thanks to Nana and Pop Pop and Auntie Angie and Uncle Vic.

Cole waiting for the fun to begin. He was more excited for Ella to open the Presents and Cake that was to come. We also got Cole a new Leap Pad (with writing) as long as he was patient and listened well. He was a very good boy. He now enjoys Counting with the Cars from "Cars"
