Halloween Flashback

These pictures are of my 3 cute girls 2 yrs ago. The twins were a mere 5 weeks old and had only been home from the hospital for 18 days. Syd is 3.

Happenings from the last few weeks

Last week Sloan and I were able to get away kid-free (thanks to my mom & sister) for a quick two day trip to Bear Lake to celebrate our 7 yr anniversary. We stopped to eat at our favorite pizza restaurant on the way up. It was relaxing and nice to get away from the daily grind for a couple of days. Syd started kindergaten on September 1. She looked so grown up her first day. I can hardly believe she's already five. I had the bus schedule wrong, so of course she missed the bus the first day so we took her. When I dropped her off at her teachers door, I asked her if she wanted me to wait until the bell rang and she said "No, mom you can go." Of course I started bawling! So far she is loving school and doing really well.

Aubs & Ky turned 2 September 25. We celebrated by having family over for cake, ice cream, and of course presents. The didn't quite get the concept of blowing out candles, but had no problem figuring out how to open presents.

Sydnee's 5th Birthday!

Our little Syd is already 5 years old! It's hard to believe she is starting kindergarten soon. In some ways the past five years have flown by, and in other ways it has taken forever. She had her very first friend party this year. It was a Prince/Princess party. It turned out really well. Everyone had a great time.

Here are a few of my favorite baby pictures of Syd:

Chillin' in the summer sun II

Last Friday I took the girls to the Splash Pad in Highland. They loved it! Fountains spray up out of the ground and there's also a shallow river area where water shoots up out of the rocks. Kilee absolutely loves the water. It takes Aubree a little longer to warm up to it. Sydnee had a blast too. My three cuties eating lunch

Chillin' in the summer sun

This past week my brother and his family invited us over to play on their inflatable water slide/pool. The girls had an absolute blast! Kilee loved getting wet and going down the slide. Aubree was a little standoff-ish. She enjoyed running around with her popsicle and trying everyones shoes on. Here is Aubers chillin' with her purple shades. KyKy posing with her popsicle.

We kind of just "gently" sent Aubers down the slide
