September

The problem with being so far behind in blogging is you can't remember everything...alas I will try.

Olive starts to really love the mobile

We make lots of bananas bread around our house.

Trampoline park in Fort Collins is one of our favorite activities

lark has some pretty crazy hair, especially because she is always yanking her pony tails out.

Hand me downs onesie from Autumn.  It says "born in 2011"

Maverick LOVES toys. He got these rescue bots (transformers for his birthday). He plays with them for several hours every day.  He often asks in the evenings "what time is it?" and "is there time to play before bed time?"

Maverick also loves to do the scavenger hunts at the library.  He often does them with his buddy Hyrum.  Then he helps other kids find the pictures too.

Walk around the block

Lark's absolute favorite book.  We read "Beekle" every night once or twice for a few months.

Violet fell asleep with her fake phone in her hands and it made me chuckle.

We got popsicles from the bank one afternoon.  We love the popsicles from Sprosty's pop lab.

I often find random pictures lark has taken on my phone.  I thought this one was sweet though of Maverick and Violet playing.

One of Maverick's favorite things is watching "super heroes" with dad.  He knows if he asks to watch TV the answer could be "no" but if he asks dad to watch super heroes with him the answer is almost always "yes". 

Autumn and Maverick were fighting one afternoon.  She said she was going to poop on Maverick's head and legitimately tried. 

 Maverick is creative and can make a weapon out of almost anything.  Here he is using Violet's giraffe backpack to hold all his swords against his back like a Ninja Turtle.

 I often get pooped on...it feels like especially when I wear these pants.

 Olive has taken to her bumbo and the kids love to play with her

 The kids are really into magic tricks lately. Here Evan is making a penny disappear in his arm.

 Sept 18: Spending the afternoon at my favorite place in town, The Children's Village.

 Then cousin Neal and my sister Hannah came to visit!!! We took them to the state museum.

 We borrowed this stroller at the museum.  She usually rides in the wagon in her car seat, so the stroller was a treat.

 We took Neal to the Children's village too.  My kids just adored Neal. They just wanted to follow him around.

 Olive meeting Hannah for the first time.

 Olive is 4 Months old! She is happier these days with the proper dose of her acid reflux meds.  She rolls from front to back and back to front. She wears size 2 diapers and 6 month clothes.  She loves being around her siblings.  Olive likes to chill under the mobile or in her bumbo.  I don't know if she is a good napper since she always gets woken up from them.  She sleeps 12 hours at night even though she breaks through her burrito wrap now.

 She...Everyone just wanted to follow Neal around

 Cheyenne hosted their first Marathon and the path went right by our street.  So we walked to the end of the block to watch and cheer.

 Lark got bored pretty quickly.

 Maverick was a ninja turtle for lots of September and all of October.
