November Happenings!


As we close out the month of November, I wanted to highlight some of our favorite moments!

These two are getting so much fun... and so loud! They really are playing together and it's super sweet to watch! Very silly too!



We had some interesting days.... Brock got hurt playing at the gym childcare one evening and ended up dislocating his elbow! Ouch! Doctor reset the elbow and he had to wear a sling for a few days, but he was such a trooper about it (after the doctor's appointment!).

One evening we headed up to Kirkland to hang out with Ara and family!

Super fun backyard with BIG leaves and Andrew & Brock playing a modified game of soccer!

Too hard to get all three of them to stop long enough for a picture!

Oh the mind of a three year old - he wanted to know where was the tree's blood since they are dying (aka losing their leaves).

Somewhere in this mix, Kade got sick for about two weeks - poor guy had such a bad cold - runny nose and coughing! And then Oscar got sick! Who knew dogs can get bronchitis!?? Well, Oscar had it and poor guy had this really horrible cough too!
 But we still smiled through it all!

My MOPS group coordinated a fire truck visit on a non-typical MOPS day, therefore Brock was able to come too! OMG, look sun!!!

 See, my camera didn't know what to do with the sun in November! ;)

Yes, and that's the new look now - we layer with the gym shorts on the OUTSIDE of the pants. 
 Super fun group of ladies and their children!

I have to include this picture even though you don't get the full extent of watching the 3 second movie with the "live picture..." Harmonious screaming/crying - apparently, it's what you do when you have a sibling and you're in time out together. Brock was in timeout for something minor, and Kade wasn't having his way and decided to throw one of his play phones HARD against the wall. Brent told him no and plopped him in time out. My sensitive Brock did not like little brother getting in trouble so started to cry too! Oh boy!


But they have good moments too! Check out this cute video of big brother Brock reading to little brother Kade.

They got their haircuts too! Boy did they both desperately need them! After haircuts, we had a nice dinner in Bellevue with Brent at Red Robin before heading home after rush hour traffic!



We definitely mellowed down Thanksgiving dinner - Brent did his typical deep-frying of the turkey - which turned out great with the new cottonseed oil - no peanut oil in this house anymore! I made a few sides, but we kept it low-key. No extra guests and half of the diners present were lacking good table-manners - it was great just the way it was!

Can't believe it, but Thanksgiving has come and gone now and we are in full Christmas decoration mode! Brock is super excited for everything pertaining to Christmas and telling Kade all about it! This should be fun! :)
