Weekend Fun With Family

Last weekend Zac (Zebs Brother) and his family came to visit. Ayden had so much fun with Whitney and she was so cute with him. They would walk around the house holding hands and he would follow her everywhere. Zeb and Zac play with the kids in the leaves and would drag them around in the wheelbarrow, they thought that was the funnest thing ever. It seemed like they were always laughing. Avery is now sitting up and trying to crawl. She's such a beautiful, chunky baby and I just wanted to squeeze her the whole time she was here. She loved her uncle Zeb and would laugh hysterically at him. Zac and Lisa said that they had never seen her laugh so hard. Ayden had a blast with his cousins and was sad to see them leave. It was a fast trip but we enjoyed the visit and look forward to seeing them at Christmas.

Happy Halloween

The original plan that I had for costumes was to have Ayden be a Monkey and Siarah be a banana. But like with evertthing that I do I waited till last minute so all the costumes were sold out and I had to settle for a Bunny and a bananna costume. Ayden had a great time. I took him to our wards Trunk or Treat and he was a little confused at first, but once he figured out that people were throwing candy into his bag he was all about it. Plus he knew how cute he in his costume.

Walking In Daddy's Shoes

Ayden LOVES his Daddy and feels very strongly that whatever dad does he also needs to do. So when dad got his new snowmobile boots and was trying them on Ayden insisted that he too needed to put them on. He couldn't move his legs at all while in them but sure thought he was cool when they were on. He spent most of the rest of the night having us put them on and take them off.

Gammy came to visit!

Gammy Toni came to visit for the weekend. It was a short trip, but we really enjoyed having her here. Ayden loved playing with her and chasing her dog around, and Siarah loved being held all the time. We look forward to seeing her again soon.

Taste Of His Own Medicine!!!

Many of you know that Zeb talks in his sleep and that I have been startled awake on many occasions. Well, both of my kids have inherited this lovely trait from there dad. In fact the first time that I ever heard Ayden laugh it was while he was sleeping. So last night while I was up feeding Siarah I heard a high pitch, loud scream from Ayden. I had heard him making noise many times so I just figured that he was doing this in his sleep. Unfortunately for Zeb he was not so familiar with Ayden's sleeping habits. He was sleeping peacefully right beside him and woke up in horror. Thinking that something was wrong with him he quickly jumped up to make sure everything was okay and had not fallen out of bed or something. He soon realized that everything was fine and Ayden was sleeping peacefully. Finally! Now Zeb knows how I felt all those times. Needless to say I have been laughing about it all day.

The Best Sister Ever!

Because my mommy is millions of miles away my sister Arah has come to take care of me this week. It has been so nice to have her here to help. Gavin has been a great help too. He's kept Ayden very entertained and is enamored with his new cousin. Thanks for taking care of me sis!

New Arrival

Siarah Lynn Ross was born Oct. 4th weighing in at 7lb 5Oz and 20 1/2". She was 6 days early and the delivery was very quick. Look like she just couldn't wait join our family. Ayden has been great with her! I guess I didn't give him enough credit for how well he understood everything. He loves giving his little sister lots of kisses. We feel so blessed to have this sweet girl join our family.
