10 Steps

McKenzie is 10 months old and can take 10 steps before she falls down. She is getting real close to walking, of course she only takes a couple steps when the camera is rolling but when it is off she does much better.

It is finally here

I had a great birthday this year. My day started with breakfast in bed, Buffalo Wings for lunch and ended with a party at my house with lots of my wonderful friends(It also included cards, and phone calls from my friends and family who live forever away thanks so much to everyone for making me feel so loved). For my birthday Anthony surprised me with a Cricut Expression I hadn't heard of one before but it came in the mail the other day and I got to try it out. It just looks like a printer for a computer, but is actually a cool machine that cuts anything I want into whatever shape I tell it to. Here is my first creation. My machine cut the card, envelope and letters. All I had to do was glue the letters "thanks" on the card. I love it.

Since school started Anthony has spent every Saturday at the school, but is protesting today, and spending time with me and the kids, or maybe the computer and T.V.

Playing in the cupboard

Kenzie is still getting into everything,

she has even recruited a friend to accompany her in her mischief. Double the fun for them makes double the mess for me.

It was warm enough we got to play outside today, Kenzie loved it. Here she is modeling the dirt in our yard. She likes to fill her mouth full of dirt, chew it until it is just the right consistency, then wipe it all over everything.

We turned 54 yesterday.

Me and my twin had a birthday yesterday so we had a Party to celebrate. I think we look good for being 54 years old.(Our ages added together is 54.)

Here is the family photo:

Me and Kenzie are Harley chicks
Parker a knight, Anthony Napoleon Dynamite

Jessee was nice enough to make me and Abby our cakes. It was the best looking cake I have ever had.

not one picture to show for our great day

Saturday Anthony and I dropped the kids off at a friends and meet up with some other friends to run a 5K. The 5K was on Goat Island, which is an island you can stand on to see Niagara Falls. Not only is Niagara Falls one of the 7 forgotten natural wonders of the world, but I also believe it is one of the 7 coldest places in the world. It rained before, during, and after the run and after the race I turned into a human Popsicle. It was still lots of fun, I think I would do it again.

After lunch I took the kids to our favorite grocery store. When we walked into Wegmans their were 2 employees standing at the entrance who handed me 2 free Wegmans reusable bags and told me to take the kids to the stations throughout the store and trick or treat. Just when I think Wegmans can't do anything more to be better, they go and do something like that. Me and my kids love Wegmans.

That night we dropped the kids off and had a date night to an Adult Costume Party(Adult because kids weren't invited not because we all wore shady outfits). It was tons of fun and Anthony even won a prize for funniest costume. The only thing that could have made the day better is pictures.

Anthony got to see his first patient on Friday. He said everything went great. He had plenty of time to do everything he needed. I guess when your patient only has 6 teeth it is pretty easy to get everything done in time.

Pumpkin Patch

I took my kids to a Pumpkin Patch today. A trip to the pumpkin patch is never complete with out a picture of a cute kid next to a pumpkin. They provided the pumpkin, I provided the cute kids.

I think Parker's favorite part was running through the hay maze with Weston.
