The Rest of October 2013

This is the best action shot I got of Madi playing soccer this fall. Now that soccer is over she misses it. Even though it seemed a little pointless because she didn't really do much--I'm glad we put her in it because I think it will help her with all sports. We will definitely do it again next year--hopefully she'll go after the ball more :)



Grandma Montana and Robbin came to visit so we had to take a swim in the pool at the hotel (and when I say we I mean Cory and the kids :) (and Grandma and Robbin too)



 

Quinton almost drowned while in this thing...he wanted to take his hands out of it and Cory told him not to...or else he would go under water...so what does he do when Cory turned his head towards Madi?--of course he lets go :) He was under the water for at least 5 seconds (I think it might have been longer)...anyway he must have held his breath the whole time because he didn't spit out any water when he got pulled out. Of course he wanted to get right back in though :) 

Madi Practicing her swimming arms.



Riley, Madi, Quinton, and Skylar--enjoying what's left of the fort they made at Toni's house. We had a fun night of games, family and of course food!



I came into Quinton's room after he woke up from his nap and this step stool (up side down) was on his bed--he told me it was his door to his tent (the blanket on his bunk bed hanging down--Cory made for him). He's got quite the imagination!



 

Madi and Marshall (a week over 5 months old)--time continues to fly. Marshall was about 16.5 pounds--such a big boy! Madi always wants to hold him but I'm afraid he's about to out grow her!

Cory and the kids did pumpkin carving and I took care of baking the pumpkins seeds--fun night as a family!



 

Madi dressed up for preschool and sang at a nursing home with her class on Halloween--so cute!

Skylar (Cheetah), Madi (good/silly witch), and Quinton (Cowboy)

Marshall with the classic Pea Pod outfit (Thanks Lisa--we are getting great use out of this costume!) Cory was worried he wouldn't fit (though he'd be to big)--but it fit great!

Quinton was about this way most of the night on Halloween--he didn't want to wear his shoes (boots). 

The best picture I could get of the kids :) 

Marshall is already army crawling--everywhere. He has been rolling over both ways since about 2 months old. He started army crawling just before 5 months. So sad--he's growing too fast! Madi and Quinton waited to crawl until 9 months. Christmas time will be interesting with him!
