SANTA!

Cate asked Santa for a Barbie Doll. I think Charlie asked Santa for some hair...

Princess Cate is 3

We had lots of fun celebrating Cate's birthday with our families at Thanksgiving. Everytime we sang the birthday song she would correct us and say her name was "Belle." Carter gave her this Belle dress as a gift.
Pretty Princess Cake! We shared cake with the neighbors (who brought Cate very sweet gifts) and Sophia. We took Cate and Sophia to see the Jolly Holiday Lights. We all piled in the car with our hot chocolate and had a fun night!

Princess Cate in her castle from Aunt Jodi. Most of the weekend she was in her high heels from Aunt Crystal (and sleeps in them every single night!)

Cate's big gift from us--but not quite big enough for Carter to ride with her in her "fancy new truck!" Seems everyone in this house has gotten a new truck this year!

Carter didn't really fit in the castle either... :)

A few Charlie pictures: 9 months old

Our little man is getting so big! He is crawling all over the place now and starting to pull himself up on things. He loves to play with whatever he can grab!
Definitely a boy!

Charlie loves to play with Ace and his ball. Not sure it is good for him to chew on this ball, though...

Happy Guy!

BIG STUFF!

Thanksgiving: Thankful for our families

We learned that another girl will be joining Cate in the family! Excited for Jacqui due April!

Grandma Jane bought fun costumes for all the kids.

Cate was REALLy into the Thanksgiving Day Parade. She made up her own dance that finished with "TA DA!" which we caught in this picture

Happy Halloween from Princess Cate and Charlie!

Fun on the farm

We enjoyed a fun day on the farm this week. We were lucky enough to have Grandma Jane come stay with us for a few days and then the kids got to go the farm for 2 days. If you can't tell, Cate had lots of fun with Papa.
My sweet little John Deere boy...nothing more beautiful than a sunny October day combining corn.

My boss, Dr. Severidt joined us for a day of farming. He enjoyed checking out the fancy combine and even drove the tractor solo!
