Halloween Cookies

Nora and I made Halloween cookies one afternoon. She had fun frosting the cookies and eating all the candy. The cookies turned out to be so hard you couldn't even bite into them...oh well we had a good time!

Picture time

Someone gave us this outfit for Molly and she looked so cute! I took a million pictures of her. Brian was giving me a hard time about how many photos I took. I couldn't help if she is adorable.

Iowa vs. Wisconsin

On Saturday we went to the Iowa game and we got to spend a little time with Nick and Courtney. It was fun to see them and it was a good day since Iowa beat Wisconsin. The weather was great as well! Go Hawks!

Silly Girls

Brian was gone last week so it was just me and the girls. We had a good time and kept busy. It was hard to get motivated to get out of our pajamas. Nora is getting more interested with Molly and likes to share everything with her. She is a good big sister. Molly is starting to roll over and likes to be sitting up. She loves the Bumbo

Potty Time

We started trying to teach Nora to use the "big Girl potty" Brian's mom has a potty that makes music when you go in it. Nora was super excited about it...at first. Then she didn't want any part of it...I want my diaper on. So we have moved on and will work with her later. Everyone says that when she is ready she will be more willing. I just don't want to keep buying diapers!!

Cute little Molly

Molly is such a good baby..she is so laid back. I guess she gets that from her father. These are some pictures of her just realaxing on the couch:)

New Haircut

Today I took Nora to get a haircut. We got a lot cut off..she looks so old now!! What a cutie!

A warm day!!

Today was such a warm day outstide that Nora and I did chalk. I drew a hopscotch for her and showed her how to use it. She had such a good time and was so funny. She was trying so hard to jump on the numbers. It was so fun to be out and it is probably one of the last really warm days here in Iowa.

What a week....

Tuesday morning I woke up and I had this terrible pain in my neck when I rolled over. I went to get out of bed and almost passed out becuase it hurt so bad. Luckily Brian's mom was planning to come over that morning to watch the girls, so Brian went and took me to the doctor. I pulled a muscle in my neck. They gave me pain medication and a lovely neck brace. I think Brian about rolled over in laughter when he came in and saw me in the neck brace. The medication that they gave me knocked me out for pretty much the whole week. I went on Friday and saw a massage therarpist and they did a massage for an hour just on my neck. That made things much better.



I was feeling really bad last week and Brian reminded me that God has a purpose for everything. I did catch up on a lot of rest. I am so lucky to have Brian's mom, Grandma and Aunt Jean help with the girls during the week.



Her is Nora looking at my neck brace...she was confused as to why I had to wear it.
