Quinn is 2 months old

I just can't believe that my baby is 2 moths old already! Where did the time go? He is such a joy in my life! I am so enjoying this soft cuddly little bear. Quinn is such a good baby. With my busy life his good attitude toward life helps me survive in the world of kids. 

In the way raising a third child is little easier then 1st or second. By no means I am saying that it is easy, we just learn more along the way. I remember when Tasia was a baby. She cried a lot, or so it seemed to me as a new Mom. I always waited for her to be 4 months to stoop fussing. Then I was waiting till she could move on her own so that she won't be that frustrated, so on and so forth. I always waited and waited instead of enjoyed.

I remember talking to girlfriends and asking when is it going to get better? Was a big question. Now I know that it  is not going to get better. This is THE BEST TIME right now. They sleep, they eat, yeah they cry, but then they sleep again so enjoy it while it lasts.

I love Fall

I guess we all love it when it is worm and beautiful. I love fall for pretty colors, for harvest and photography seasons every day. It has been crazy busy lately, but I think I like it that way. I have noticed if I am away from home then i want to be home. I know it is obvious, but so true for me. It has been fun getting the veggies from the garden, going to the canyon to roast hot dogs and doing fun parties and photo shoots. Now I need to spent weeks on end editing.


Here are three of my kiddos in one place

Teaching Joy School

Two weeks ago I was teaching Joy School at our house! I loved it. I hope kids did too. We talked about the Earth, how lucky we are to have it. We went to my garden and picked carrots beats and pumpkins. Then we had a talk about how we need to keep the earth clean. The activity for this part was picking up garbage at the park.

 Those are the bags of garbage that kids collected. I was impressed


 Play time on the swings!!!

Halloween Party

Today we had a very Fun Halloween Party. Thank you Katherine and Leah for all the help. I hate doing parties alone, it is always too overwhelming but with Katherine's planning abilities it was not stressful at all. Katherine, you should be a Professional Party Planner!!! 

We had all these cute kids in their costumes decorating cookies, doing cake walk/ musical chair type game, making ghosts and having fun. We also had a ton of tattoos to put on little hands. I am shore parents will love wiping them off in the baths:)

Here are some pics of some kids who did not leave early
