holloween costumes


Ok so my kids are not the most cooperative kids when it comes to taking pictures so of course I had to bribe them. With the twins all you have to say is that you will give them chocolate and they would do just about anything, but Kota demanded a whole days worth of allowance...which it a whole quarter hee, hee, hee
BrynLee is so excited that she gets to be a "princess" for Halloween that she even let me do her hair, which at our house is usually kind of an ordeal lol...

BrynLee and Braxton are going to be a Princess and prince hence the outfits, but Dakota just had to be "Iron Man" and of course the costume is one of those spandex with fake muscles and I'm sorry but it is so dorky. so instead of having him ruin these pictures I made him put on the tux that he wore at Bret's wedding. I know its kind of mean but just picture this picture with a corny Iron Man costume in it lol... He can get those pictures on Halloween.
When I showed Steve this picture he laughed and said that it was weird. I asked him why and he said that when the kid look at it they will think its gross because they are brother and sister... I just thought it was cute, that shows the difference between men and women I guess.

Kotas first day of school

I cant believe that Dakota is Kindergarten, time goes way to fast. He continues to crack us up all the time. I swear he is 5 going on 30 lol. So far he loves it and he likes his teacher (even though I think that she is kind of crazy, but that's a long boring story so well skip it). His teacher told me that she has caught him falling asleep in class a couple of times and we think that he is just getting board. She sent a note home asking us to think about getting him tested for Alps. It kind of made me laugh a little because as a parent it is great to think that your child does well in school but in the back of mind Ill always remember that as a kid I thought that the kids in the alps class were weird or nerds lol. Its funny how things like that just automatically pop into your head.










OK I had to throw this picture in because the night before the first day of school he actually practiced this pose in front of me and the mirror,and asked if he looked cool. What a spazz lol
