Happy Valentine's Day!

I found this adorable Valentine's Day t-shirt idea from a magazine. I thought this would be a great project for the girls to do with me. We taped a paper heart doilie to a t-shirt and sponge painted through the design. Turned out super cute and I decided to personalize the shirts by ironing on their names. The girls were so excited to put their shirts on this morning!!!!

Making Grandma and Grandpa Proud!

Sykes and Cooper Farm

Over the weekend we met up with some good friends and took all our kids to this farm for some fall festivities. We did a corn maze (and yes we got lost...but Kerry got us out!), animals, hayride, corn popper and play ground including a corn box (not sand box but corn box). We had an awesome time and the kids loved it. The weather was just perfect for the first weekend of October!

Labor Day Weekend Fun!

Started off our Labor Day weekend by going to the beach! This was the first time for Matthew and the girls haven't been since they were 1. We all had so much fun! Abby and Chloe cried when we left. They wanted to stay longer but Matthew was exhausted.

Walking and I've got Proof!

Matthew is doing much better with his walking and this morning I was actually able to get him on video!

He's a Rocking Boy!

Matthew's been crazy about the wooden rocking horses that his Grandpa handmade. Every chance he gets he crawls over to them and plays with them. A few night ago he made his way onto one and the rocking just came naturally.

This video is especially for you Grandpa!
