I'm back!

Whew!  I've been gone a while, but not because I didn't want to post--I did want to.  My keyboard broke and I had to wait to get a new one!  It would have been really hard to post with no keyboard.  Luckily Justin brought me a borrowed one from his work!  Thanks honey! :)

Today is Halloween!!  YAY!  On Saturday, my mom and I took the kids Trunk-or-Treating at my cousin's church.  I dressed them like ZOMBIES!  They were SOOO cute! Here are the pics I took of them:

Camryn


Justin (and his scary zombie face)


Anna


Ayva (not a very good pic.  my flash was dead)


Also Camryn turned 11 months old!  It seems like just yesterday that she was born.  I can't imagine that next month she will be ONE!!! Yikes!  Here are her 11 month pics:

Just for funsies!

We did a craft today--(Justin called it a "Creepy Craft" because it was in a Halloween Creepy Craft book).  It was a paper mustache and it was SO.FUNNY!  I put it on everyone and then took their pictures.

Fall is finally here!

Help Find Baby Lisa Irwin!

This happened near my house.  She is the same age as Camryn.  I just want to help find her, so here is the story on our local news.

Not much going on here.  Camryn is either reacting to the strawberries I gave her last week or she needs to switch from Nutramigen to something that doesn't have ANY milk/soy.  We have to wait a week and then call the Allergy Clinic back.  Yay.  The kids, my mom and I went to visit their Ginny (Granny) and it was such a nice day I took some pictures! :)












And then we went outside the other day-

My little baby is 10 months old today

It seems like she was born yesterday...  It's strange how babies go from looking like this one day


To looking like this the next.


She is SO big.  She nods her head when you ask her things


She waves and I *think* she says Hi.  She can crawl and stand, and climb! :)


Her eczema is SO.MUCH.BETTER.  We've taken out all her milk/soy products and she has only had a few setbacks (with strawberries and peaches-- and Justin giving her a piece of chocolate) but she hasn't broke out into the horrible, whole body consuming rash that she once was!

I'm going to take her 10 month pics later today and hopefully I will get a chance to edit them soon! :)
OK...here they are:

We played hookie...

Yesterday was such a lovely day and my mom had the day off from work, so we decided to let the girls play hookie from school and go to the park.  Everyone had fun, and I got a few pictures.  I think it went as well as expected for the two of us with 4 kids and only one of them can walk :/    Anna and Camryn loved the swings--but when it was time to get Anna out of the swing it was a bit of a problem.  She tends to keep her legs locked when she has her braces on and my mom couldn't get her out!  Then I went over and tried to get her out and was having trouble!  Then a very nice lady (who didn't speak any English) came over and helped me.  It's sad when you are having so much trouble that a stranger feels the need to help.  Oh well...   Anyway back to the pictures! :)

Ayva (she wasn't really in the mood for a photo shoot)


And one of all of us


Oh- I almost forgot.  I gave Camryn strawberry puree yesterday in her oatmeal and she had a reaction.  Boo.  I guess we'll add that to the list of allergies :(
