Apple Mania

Last weekend we went to the apple festival with Papa and Gram(as Taylor calls her). There were wagon rides, popcorn, apple tasting, coloring, and ice cream. A whole lot of fun for Saturday afternoon! Here are some photos of our apple day.

Walking to the apple party

Look a giant apple balloon!!!!!



Yummy popcorn

Way more fun to push the wagon than ride in it!

One of the girls

There has been HUGE baby fights at our house lately over the baby doll strollers. So I finally broke down and bought Coby his own little pink stroller. Jake wanted me to get one in black, but they didnt' have much of a selection, so pink it is! I don't have 2 or 3 of every toy but there are certain things that we must have 3 of! They play with these things for hours on end. Here's the trio running around with their strollers:

Hey Daddy!

Look what came in the mail today.



Hurry up and get home, it's heavy!

Saturday morning

Only a few more days till daddy gets home. We've been trying to stay busy. This morning I took the kids to OMSI. We left the house before 9, made a quick starbucks run (because somebody AND her brother woke up at 4am today), then we took a walk, watched crew practice and finally OMSI opened up. I like to get there right when they open so it's all nice a clean, and toys haven't been slobbered on yet. Coby got soaked in the water area, and Chloe got pretty wet too. But other than that it was a success! We left around 11, grabbed some lunch and headed back home for naptime. Here's a few pictures! (OH and daddy you'll notice we're all wearing the SAME color shirt, so mommy can keep track of us). We miss you come home soon!


Reading to go. (Coby couldn't wait!)

Watching crew practice












Lunch time!

Guess who?

Guess who I forgot to buckle in their seat this morning?

Reading

First I found Chloe like this, reading a board book. (Isn't she adorable?)...........



Then I found Taylor like this, reading the NY Times (She's crazy)............

The jumpolene!

Coby got this super fun jumpolene for his birthday. It's loads of fun. Chloe can't remember what she did for fun before the jumpolene. It's a must have for rainy days in Oregon.

Check out Taylor's face in this first picture. This is pretty typical, Taylor trying to read a book while Chloe's bouncing off the walls.




And here's a view of playroom #2. It's still not finished, but it's getting there. It's the roughhouse room. All out of control, wild and wacky children are sent straight to the basement. I also have a rule that all the toys that make noise live in the basement.

Baby Stats

All three kids had their well-child check ups this week. We're still waiting to get our records transferred over from our old peditrician, so no shots just yet. But they all met their new doctor. We tried out 3 diff. peds before we found a good one. We LOVE our new doctor. She is amazing! Thanks to Julie (SP's mom) for the recommendation! So here are our new stats. The are all SO close in size it's crazy. (Coby has been sick for a few weeks so he's lost some weight).

CHLOE: 33.75 inches tall and 28 lbs
TAYLOR: 33 inches tall and 23 lbs
COBY: 33.5 inches tall and 26lbs
