It's Been a While!

Since I last posted, we've had a lot going on! My mom came to visit us from California last week. She had never met Kyle, so it was definitely time! She got to see first hand what a sweet and smiley baby Kyle is. Noah was happy to have someone else in the house to be able to talk to--since that *is* his favorite thing to do!

We also had our first annual Fall Kickoff Party. We decided to try to get all of our friends and their kiddos together on one date! We had a great turnout and had a lot of fun, so we've decided to make it an annual event. When you've got small kids, it's so hard to try to get together with people as often as you'd like, so it was really nice to see so many of our friends that day! Some time with other adults was sooooo welcome! We had lots of yummy food--we did it potluck style and we had some really tasty things to eat (thank you everyone!!). I didn't take as many pictures as I wanted to. I guess I was too busy enjoying myself which is a good thing! We had neighbors, friends from the area, and Cranmommies and their families come. I think one of the highlights of the day (at least for the kids) was when Ken, Addie's husband, was out on the grass with a tribe of kids running after him. It was HILARIOUS! Ken is definitely meant to have his own kids--they all loved him, it was so funny.

We were all cracking up that the kids thought they were hidden by fence posts! LOL!


Andrea, a good Cranmommy friend holding Kyle. Did Kyle give Andrea a case of baby fever??

Addie and Ken's son Nate. He seemed to really like hiding under this table! LOL!



Andrea and Kurt's oldest daughter, Leah


Their youngest daughter Mallory, who by the way is so grown up already!!! She was so cute. If you pointed the camera at her, she gave you this little face:

Zach and Sam, some of Noah's little friends that we met at the library over a year ago




I sure wish I had taken a lot more pictures! We had such a fun day with everyone.

Just so you know, we went to another cook out last weekend and Nate wanted to play hide and seek. He hid under the table everytime again! We had a great time and I'm glad you've decided to make it an annual thing.
