Kaitlyn Elizabeth...........
Here are some more photos of Kaitlyn from our late October photo shoot. I absolutely love her freckles in the close-up shots, and how she still has a dimple on her right cheek--she's had that ever since she was a tiny baby!

Hayride Fun
Well........THIS might be why I still don't feel well! We went to our church on Friday evening for hot dog and s'mores roasting and then on a hayride. LOTS of fun, but VERY cold! Kaitlyn invited her friend Lilly (and her sister Maya and MY friend Lisa) to come as well. The babies were at home with a babysitter and then we dropped Kaitlyn back off at home and Paul and I went out alone. I went to Urgent Care on Saturday, but couldn't take the antibiotics they prescribed because it irritated my tummy. Then I went to my doctor yesterday, STILL no antibiotics as you can't even take any on blood thinners. Jeez! No fun! Happily, Kaitlyn is almost done with her round of antibiotics (from a double ear infection) and seems well, and the babies are healthy and in super-good moods the past few days. And..........it SNOWED here yesterday, so exciting! Kaitlyn was thrilled! I got it on video, but neglected to use my camera. It snowed in the afternoon, then stopped, then started right before Kaitlyn's bedtime. When I told her and asked her if she wanted to go back outside to look at it again, she asked, "Is the snow back on?", like someone in the sky had flipped a switch! :)

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas......
Well, actually, maybe not A LOT. More like a little a smidge. :) No sense in decorating TOO much as four little hands like to tear it all down. You should see the sea of ornaments on our floor, we've given up on putting them back on the tree!
Off to bed for me...sicker than a dog. More on that on my next post......

Lauren, Take 82, this girl would NOT sit in the chair, this was the best I could do. I know, too close. How do those quad moms get FOUR babies to sit, look at the camera, and even smile?!?!?

Family Picture
Here is a picture of the five of us from our photo shoot a few weeks ago. The photographer did a great job and I was so pleased with the CD of pictures. If you're ever in her area, you should look her up! I will post more photos soon.....

Daisies Ornament Party
We've not been feeling too well here, so I have been trying to nap any chance I get, I've yet to be very successful! The twins and I have nasty colds, no fun! Blech!
Here is a picture from last Friday evening of Kaitlyn and I at her Daisies Ornament Party and a picture of all the girls from her troop that went as well. We had lots of fun!

Reading in Kaitlyn's class
Today I went to Kaitlyn's class to read some books to them and then have lunch with her. She was SOOOOO excited to have me come, and I really enjoyed being back in teacher-mode, if just for 30 minutes! I don't have a picture from today, so here is a picture of Kaitlyn and her camouflaged turkey(so he doesn't get eaten for Thanksgiving). Kaitlyn wanted to turn him into a sunflower; all the kids' turkeys were hanging in the hallway at school, they were so creative! By the way, the babies were having fun over at Cassidy's house(see previous post).

Outdoor Fun
On Wednesdays, I watch a sweet little girl named Cassidy who just turned two. And my friend watches my girls on Friday...not exactly a fair deal for her, eh?!?!? :)
Anyway....we spent almost the whole morning outside, the girls had so much fun. I felt like a Mama Duck with all my little ducklings following me up and down the sidewalk. They had lots of fun with the balls and the little tricycles ...and I know they got a good nap afterwards (at least mine did)!
Cassidy (look at all her beautiful blonde hair--at 2! Kaitlyn didn't have that much hair (nor will Emma I think) until she was way past 3!)

Fall Festival Fun
This weekend, Kaitlyn's school had a Fall Festival. It was so much fun! We invited her cousin, Kristen, to come with us (and my sister-in-law, Denise), and they both had a blast! Their favorite parts were the slides and bouncers outside, and there were lots of games to play too. Kaitlyn was thrilled to win a book in the Book Walk and she choose cupcakes after she won the Cake Walk. Then we all went out to eat with Paul's parents and had yummy bar-b-que. Kristen spent the night with us, the girls fell asleep easily because they were wiped out from the festival.

Here's a hug for ya!
Tried to get the babies' mid-hug in some pictures. First Lauren was loving on Emma, with Emma being none too sure of it. Then, as usual, Emma started giggling and tackled Lauren with a great big, knock-you-down hug. They were wearing just 2 of the most adorable outfits passed on to me from my friend Kris from her daughter. Between Kris, Lisa, Shanna and the clothes I already had from Kaitlyn, these girl are going to be stylin' all winter long----and then some! Thanks ladies!
Gotcha!
Lauren, Lauren Pumpkin Pie!
Emma, Emma Key-Lime Pie!
