Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! All week we have planned on going to our ward's trunk-or-treat tonight and then around to family tomorrow. Well about 10 minutes before the trunk-or-treat we found out it isn't even our ward! The other ward had just left their sign up through our meetings. But we decided to go anyways. No one seemed to mind and we gave out candy too. Doran was very happy that he just had to say trick or treat and he got candy. He loves Halloween!

Here is Brockey in his costume. My Mom made it for me when I was a baby, then Brooks wore it on his first Halloween, and now Brock got to wear it. I thought it was funny because it is so far from the truth, he is an angel not a devil!

Seth and I were nervous that Doran wouldn't wear the hat because he hasn't been a fan of them for a while now. As soon as he saw Brock all dressed up and with his hat on he was very excited to dress up and especially for the hat. He wore it all night and if he touched it at all he would have us fix it right away. I just wish it was a cuter hat!

Here he is at the trunk-or-treat! So much fun!
Jayce always likes to be something different then the other kids on Halloween. This year she wanted to be a vampire bat! She was scary!
Then on Halloween night we made our rounds. We went to Granny's, Grandma and Papa K's and had chili and hot cocoa, and then to Nate and Samantha's trunk-or-treat. The picture above is by far my favorite costume. If you can't tell it was a headless horseman. It was so cool to see this person riding down the street! Here is Brock with Papa! He got pretty grumpy tonight around 5. It was a long day to him!

Doran with his Grandma. And below both boys with Grandma. Doran had so much fun. This is really the first holiday he has gotten into and it made it so much fun. After we left the trunk-or-treat we went around our neighborhood letting him trick-or-treat. He loved it. He dragged his bag around and wouldn't let anyone help carry it. I am so excited to see what he does for Christmas!

Hee Haws

We went to Hee Haws on Friday and boy was it fun. We had never been there before so I was surprised at how much there was to do there. Sarah and Samantha invited us and we thought lets make a party of it and invite the Yakiwchuks! I think everyone had a ton of fun. The slide was definately the most popular attraction. I went down it a few times and I gotta say when you get to the bottom, whoa, that hurts!
For Doran the funnest thing was by far and away the 'train' ride. They went two times and he still freaked out when Seth got him out.
The second time around Brock went with Brooks and he really liked it too.
Here is Jayce and Bella. Don't they look so cute!
You would never guess Doran liked it from his facial expression!
And the main attraction! Jayce and Jax went down it every way they could think of! It was pretty funny.
Here is Daddy going down with Doran and Gavin. Doran liked it at first, but then Brooks sent him down alone and he flipped forward and hit his cheek bone and nose really hard so he wasn't a big fan after that.
Here is Sarah with Tyson and Gavin and Samantha with Doran. She said he was fine until they got to the top and he saw me and started saying Coley Coley and then he saw Seth and was yelling Set Set!
Brock had a lot of fun or as much fun as someone who can't walk and do anything can have!
Here is the whole group! Yay!

Gay Gay's Quilt

I have never seen such a neat quilt as the one my cousin Christine aka Gay Gay made in sewing this year. She did the pattern and everything by herself and I absolutely love it.

The pictures don't even do it justice! I love the sewing she did all over it. You can see in the picture below all the cool swirls and stuff she did on it. She is very talented!

9 months!

It is hard to believe Brock is 9 months! That is how long I was pregnant! He had his nine month check up on Thursday and he is still a skinny little guy. He weighs 19 lbs. 5 oz. which is only the 34%ile. He is 29 1/4 inches which is the 82%ile and his head is now in the 91%ile! So basically he is skinny, tall, and has a big noggin! His eating has finally improved, he still wakes up in the night for food and the doctor said he will still need to for awhile... But we finally can switch him from Allimentum to a cheaper formula! Yeah!

OOOHHHH!

Memory Lane!

I just wanted to take a little walk down memory lane today and show everyone how cute little Brocky is and always has been. Above is a picture a few hours after he was born and below is his first day home. He was such an awesome baby! You can tell his eye was swollen from his clogged tear duct and he was all yellow. Still so cute!
Here he is at one month, this was day he was admitted to the hospital for RSV. His eyes were starting to change then to a more hazel color rather than the blue-gray. You can tell he didn't feel good by the look on his face.
Here he is a 2 months and about 2 weeks. All I can say is STUD!
Here he is at 3 months, once again not feeling well but still oh so handsome!
Here he is this past Saturday eating my cell phone skin and loving it! Ladies look out!
I guess while I am at it we better walk down memory lane with Doran too. It is funny how different they have always looked. Doran's eyes were blue from day one and Brock's were just always tinted with brown! Here is Doran with Jayce the day after he was born. What a chubby face!

Here he is at one month old. This is when he had lost all of his hair. Poor little guy next to Hunter, she had tons of hair!
Here he is at two months old. His hair grew back so fast! Brock didn't get as much hair as Doran.
3 months old with Grandma!
4 months! He was such a happy baby. Brock is too! They both always smile! I am very lucky to have such wonderful babies.
6 months old! I always loved this picture. He was crying 2 seconds before because Seth was leaving, he has always been a daddy's boy!
One year! Can you get a cuter picture? They both always have made good facial expressions!
Check out those blue eyes! There is no doubt that we have two good lookin boys on our hands!
18 months! Easter morning!
2 years!!! I love my little boys!

Missed Nap Time

So we have a 1-4 church schedule on Sundays and both the boys usually take a nap right in the middle of that time. Doran usually naps from 1-3 and Brock, it varies, but there is always a 2 hour nap in the afternoon for him too. Well Brock usually comes home and naps but Doran just has to deal with being sleepy. Today after church I made spaghetti for dinner and was sitting across from Doran at the table. He had been crying because he was so hungry! I watched him take a few bites while I was eating, looked away, looked back at him and he was out cold!
I felt so bad for him! He never falls asleep anywhere but his room and occassionally his car seat so I knew he must have been beyond exhaustion. I picked him up and brought him down to mine and Seth's bed. He slept there until we woke him up to go to his cousin's birthday party. I can't wait until we have a different church schedule and I bet the boys can't either!

Bowling!!

So last night we went bowling as a family and we had the time of our life! Well, atleast one of us did. Doran was laughing the whole time. He would run over to the ball thing, wait for his ball, when it would come he would scream, 'There it is', pick it up, and then and drop it right at the start of the lane. Seth and I ended up not playing at all and just letting Doran take our turns.
Here he is picking up the ball. He would confuse his for Seth's once in a while, but he would quickly realize his mistake when he couldn't walk with it because it was to heavy!
It would take a long time for some of his balls to get down to the pins. Some times he would sit and wait to see them hit, other times he went to watch his ball come back!
Check out Brooks' sweet moves! Brooks ended up getting a pretty good score, but Doran won on Seth's game with a score of 98! Thank heavens for bumper bowling!
So many posts seem to be just about Doran! I thought I better throw in a picture of Brock. He is actually starting to gain a little weight. He has a little chub on his face and legs now. His eyes are almost all the way brown and he is just good lookin!

The Races

So we got a new camera, YEAH!!! We went out to the Miller Motorpark Speedway today and boy was it exciting! We got there, got out of the car and it started pouring rain! It rained for about 5 minutes and then the sunshined the rest of the time! Luckily the boys didn't get to wet since I had then bundled and layered pretty well.
Doran had the time of his life! He kept laughing and 'vroom vrooming.' He kept saynig 'cool car' when he saw a car he liked and he kept saying 'Mommy races!' I guess he thought I would forget where we were with the loud engines being pretty much all you can hear!
He liked this car so much he tried to get in it!
Sadly, the main reason I went to this race again this year still has yet to be fulfilled. Patrick Dempsey, in the flesh! Last year we saw him and talked to him (well Seth talked to him, I was to chicken) but he didn't have time to do a picture! This year we got there after he had already left. I want to get a picture with him SO BAD! So here is to next year, third time is the charm or whatever! (You can see his name on the car below.)

MY CAMERA IS BROKE!

I am so sad! The other day Jen and Blake's twin nieces were at our house and they were so adorable! I have never actually seen newborn identical twins and I was so excited that I had to take a picture. So I pulled and the camera and all the pictures I took were fuzzy and had lines across them. I was hoping my camera screen had just broke but when I uploaded them to the computer it was only a little bit better. So if anyone knows where any cameras are on sale at please let me know! I can't live without a camera!
Well atleast you can still tell how stinkin cute they are!

GO GIANTS!!!

So tonight was the Giants first game of the season and we were ready for it. Seth had our jerseys all sitting out on the bed and ready for us to put them on. The boys look handsome in their jerseys. The first quarter of the game Seth was screaming non stop and kept scaring Brock so bad! He would just start crying so hard because Seth would just scream and scream and jump up and run around!
We need to get Doran a new jersey since Shockey switched to the Saints, but its better then not wearing one!
Now some of you may not realize Seth's enthusiam when it comes to his Giants! This picture was taken right after Jacobs pushed his way to a first down through tons of guys. It was cool but Seth thought it was better than cool! This was just one of many, many exciting moments of the game with Seth! Oh and the Giants won by the way! 16-7!!!

Our boys!

So the week after we got back from Idaho Brock finally started sitting, took him long enough! The very next day he started scooting! He is so fast now he can get across the room so fast and it is so funny to watch him! His favorite place to go is a mirror we have on the floor, he likes to play with his relfection. He is really handsome!
Doran has been changing a lot too! He is talking like crazy now (as long as he isn't being shy!) Some of the things he says make me laugh so hard. He had pushed Brock over and Brock started to cry and Doran kept saying, 'K baby? K baby?' Then when he could tell he was in trouble he said, ' Oh! I K Mommy! I K!' He just does so many little things now that he can talk that are so funny! The fits are starting to get better too now that he can talk so much better! I love my boys!!!
