Our exciting news!

Baby Bloede 4.0 will be joining our family in May!   


We made this picture to tell the family and friends that were in on the secret early! 


After we told the rest of the family we carved pumpkins and made the big announcement! 





Halloween

Halloween is always questionable when it comes to the weather but this year we got lucky.  Mild temperature and no rain while we were out. 


A bat (without her wings, ears, and gloves), a genie, and a witch.








We always have dinner and start our trick or treating with Jack and Carter!


The whole crew!


Emmerson, Jack and Claire know just what to do and the littles are very good at keeping up!











She did wear the whole costume for a few minutes!

Emmerson's Halloween Party

I feel so lucky that I get to be part of the girls classrooms.  I was able to sneak into Emmerson's party for a few minutes.  She got to wear her costume for her school party.  Though she made a last minute change to a Flamenco Dancer for the day. 


Her two owl buddies!


Candy corn bingo


and a pumpkin craft!

Claire's School Party

We couldn't be happier with Claire's new school.  She is so excited to go everyday!

They have a big Halloween party.  She was so excited to wear her costume to school.  I was excited to get to be part of it!




I am not sure anyone loves Halloween the way this girl does.  Her two favorite things...dressing up and candy!




In all my years of being around teachers Claire's teacher is one of the BEST I have ever met!




The preschool director was a witch too!


The kids went wild when they saw their teachers costumes!

Zoo Boo

We made our annual trip to Zoo Boo.  We had perfect weather again this year!






Audrey caught on to trick or treating real fast after she realized that she got candy!






We always go with the Hurshs.  It has been so fun watching these 6 turn into good friends! Life is getting easier with this crew, still  6 little kids but nothing like 6 kids under 4 a couple years ago!   Dinner downtown after the zoo was fairly calm!


As an extra treat we ran in to the Anna and Owen!


October FUN!



October brings plenty of time in Bloomington!


and time playing outside with neighbors.  


Audrey loves the craft table too. 


The girls love when Daddy rakes.  They aren't helpful but they love it! 






Colin Kemper was born this month and the girls were so excited to finally meet him! 


The girls always ask to have "sleep overs"  which is really funny because they share a room! A sleep over to them is sleeping on the floor.  


Doesn't everyone wear a beanie boo belt?


Happy girls! 


Jump ropes make great microphones. 


One front tooth gone!
