Lexie's Kindergarten Picture

She is getting so big!

More Boston

I know all these pictures basically look the same, but he is just so cute!

Pumpkin Patch

All summer Lexie and Brynnlee watch the pumpkins at the patch grow.  They get so excited every time we pass the patch.  When we told it was time to go pick out their pumpkins they could hardly contain their excitement!

So man y to choose from.  Lexie picked out a ghost pumpkin for JD and I to share.

Lexie picked out a big one for herself.

Brynnlee didn't want a big one, she wanted a tall one.  The girls picked out a baby one for Boston.

The farmer let each one pick out free gourd.  They wouldn't sit close together for a picture.

Brynnlee was not happy Lexie was this close to her. (what a stinker).

John Boston Parry

John Boston Parry was born on September 26th at 11:37 AM.  He weighed 5 lbs 15 oz and was 18 inches long.  He has been the best baby.  He has a very soft cry, he eats well, and sleeps really well.  At 2 weeks he weighed 6 lbs 7 oz!  He is growing and doing so well.  He sleeps 5 to 6 hours at night!  We all love him so much.

Proud big sister! 

She was so excited to hold him.

All ready to go home!

Brynnlee has had a hard time adjusting.  I have to hold her all the time and she hates when I nurse him.  Every now and then I let her feed him a bottle and she loves it.  She is getting a little better, hopefully with time she will be ok with not having all the attention.

Lexie is a great big sister.  She helps me so much.  If Boston even makes a little sound she is right by his side to see what he needs.  Now if only I trusted her to change diapers!

Boston is still light enough that Grandma V can hold him without it hurting her.  She could hold him for hours and keeps volunteering to babysit.  We actually took her up on it so we could go to a movie.  She held him the whole time and wasn't ready for us to take him.

Fall Hike

We have been wanting to take the girls on a little hike for a while now.  Finally we decided to just go.  We loaded Indy and the girls in the truck and drove to North Fork.

This is what greeted us right when we got out of the truck

Yes, I continue to try and get a picture of the girls together.  No, it hasn't worked yet.

Lexie collected leaves for her teacher Mrs. Law.

It was so pretty, we picked the perfect time to go. 

We had such a great time, we got to close to a moose and had to turn around.  Which turned out to be a good thing because it started to rain.  The hike was short but enough to put me into labor!

St. George and Aladdin

The end of August we made a quick trip to St. George.  Lexie and I had tickets to see Aladdin.  The girls were in heaven swimming for 2 days.  Lexie and I loved the play.  I was surprised how much Lexie liked it, she wanted to go again.

Brave enough to jump off the rocks again.

My favorite picture ever.

Dancing and Soccer

Lexie actually wanted to do the Warrioretts clinic and dance at the football game.  Brynnlee wasn't so excited about it, but went anyway.  Lexie loved every minute of it.  I think it helped that her two best friends were doing it with her.

Lexie did do the dance and thought it was so fun.

Brynnlee on the other hand, cried the entire time.

Lexie's Fall soccer has come and gone. 

She played so well this season.  She was so aggressive, using her elbows and everything.

After everything she does, she looks over to the sidelines to make sure dad approves.
