Pictures of me and the kids on my birthday! I think these turned out pretty cute. I had a good birthday. The girls kept singing happy birthday to me all day, it was really cute!! They got me some flowers and some candles. They know what mommy likes!
Bethany had so much fun at her friends Emily's birthday party. As you can see it was a ballerina party, and they had a "real" ballerina come and teach them a little routine that the girls did for the mom's when we picked them up. Bethany had so much fun with it! She was so excited to meet a real ballerina. She has been wanting to take ballet classes for awhile, I think we may have to find her a class. 
We had so much fun growing our own pumpkins this year! We had 8 pumpkins grow and 2 more are still growing. The girls decided who's pumpkins were who's when they were growing. They picked Rylan's for him, because it was the "baby" pumpkin, as it was the smallest for awhile, but soon out grew the rest! They also had fun carving their pumpkins and getting all goopy and slimy. And daddy has enjoyed eating the toasted pumpkin seeds!

The girls have been going to a tumbling class, that they love! Even better they get to go with their good friends Emma and Megan. They have so much fun playing with them! They all usually get along so well too, which makes it nice for their mommies. They get to have a slumber party at their house tomorrow night and they are SO excited. We are too. Maybe we will actually get to sleep in, hopefully Rylan will cooperate!
Bethany is turning into a little artist. She can draw real pictures of things. This is a monster that she drew. Pretty cute!
Rylan surprised us this morning when he was playing on the floor and he started to push himself up on his hands and knees. He was so proud of himself. He also does the army crawl to get around, he is determined to get to what he wants. He can also get himself from his tummy to sitting up postition, also new today. It has been a busy day for him! Hannah was trying to help him out at the end of the video. Kind of funny!
Here are some pictures of the kids today. The girls are in their Christmas dresses, yes they are wearing them early. They love them! I wanted to get them matching ones, but they had their own ideas and weren't going for that. Next year I guess I won't give them a choice and go shopping by myself:) No, I'm glad they have the ones they wanted, since their preferences are different. Bethany is into purple and Hannah loves pink! Rylan is left out, since he dosen't get to wear pretty dresses, but I am having so much fun dressing up my handsome little boy in his button up shirts! But we still need to get him a tie...but haven't been able to find one for him yet. 
Bethany and Hannah are our little mommies. They love to help take care of their brother, especially Hannah, who is always wanting to hold him. I love that they enjoy him so much, and most of the time they are good entertainment for Ryaln. Although their are times when he is not so happy about it. I heard Rylan crying so I went to get him out of his crib and this is where I found the girls. They were just trying to take care of him, but he wanted his "grown up" mommy! Hannah got in the crib my using the pink chair Bethany is standing on, cleaver girl. But has since learned how to climb up without any props. Funny kids.
After
After we "styled" his hair. Bethany does not like it when I spike his hair. She tells me it dosen't look good, and tries to flatten it! It's fun to do something different with his hair every now and then!
You can't really see his hair, but thought it was a cute picture!
Rylan ready for church. I couldn't bring myself to spike his hair for church, so I just spiked the front up a little. I thought he looked pretty handsome! He seems so much more a little boy now, and not my little baby! They grow up too fast!
This balloon landed by our house at the park that I took the girls to earlier in the week. We also have had them land in the field behind our house. We watch them as we eat breakfast. It's pretty cool!
These balloons took off right across the street from where we were parked. It was fun watching them go up.
Bethany and Hannah having a ride in the wheelbarrow. They thought that was so fun!!
Hannah being silly for the camera! 
Bethany building sandcastles in her sandbox. Usually the sand is too dry to actually built sand castles, but today it was perfect!! She was so proud of herself. She had to keep Hannah away, because she thinks it's fun to knock them down:)
Rylan swinging in his swing. He loves it, especially when his sister's help and give him pushes. He usually gives him a big grin!!
One of the things we really like about Albuquerque is the weather!! It is still warm enough to play in the sprinklers, the girls love it!! 
The park is a favorite past time for my girls, I don't get them there enough. Their favorite thing to do at the park is swing, swing, swing!! They could swing all day at the park, although they have swings in their backyard!
Rylan loves to swing, especially since that is all he can do at the park right now. He will just smile and laugh the whole time!!
The girls love it when they get to take their bikes to the park. It is fun for them to have a better place to ride them, other than the sidewalks in our neighborhood, that are covered in rocks (thanks to xeriscapping and neighbor kids:) Bethany on her new bike, she outgrew her old one. She loves it!
Hannah finally decided that it is funner (is that a word??) to pedal her bike, rather than using her feet the flinstone style.
