Christmas Wreaths!

My mom is the operations manager at the Credit Union in Cottonwood and oversees all the tellers so she was asking for good ideas on what to give them for Christmas this year. I told her that I would make Christmas wreaths for all of them and she took me up on the offer. So, Rod and I had a busy Sunday of making wreaths. Rod made the bows and put the decorations on the wreaths. I think that they turned out really cute! Hope the girls enjoy them!

Playing Guns & Exciting news!!!

Last week Rod Caden and I made a trip up to Lewiston to see my grandparents as my Grandpa was in the hospital. We stayed the night at my sister Karel's house and Cole and Caden were able to get together to play for a about a day and they had a great time. Finn just sat back and watched the boys play. Cole and Caden each had a gun and they were shooting birds - every once in a while you would catch them shooting each other! Boys will be boys.

Finn


Now, on to my exciting news...Rod and I are going to have another baby, YEAH!!! We are really excited. I am 6 weeks pregnant and due around July 20th. The funny thing is that my nephew Finn's birthday is July 19th so they will more than likely be having birthday parties together! I have my first appointment on Dec 1st. Caden keeps telling us that I have a baby in my belly but he says that Rod does to...it's cute! We will keep everyone posted on updates. Hope everyone has a great week.

Finn is growing like crazy

So Finn is almost 4 months old now and he is getting to be quite the chubby little thing. It's funny because Cole was always so skinny so for Finn to be the opposite is a little different for Stephanie. He has the rubber band wrists and the thunder thighs just like Caden did!! And boy does he look like his daddy. Cole looks more like Stephanie and Finn is just a spitting image of Riley. My mom and dad and sister Karel went to Post Falls last weekend so here are a few pictures of Finn to see how much he has grown. Also, for those of you that didn't know my sister Kristin is going to have a baby in April and she had her ultrasound yesterday, it's a boy!!! Yeah, my mom is going to have 4 grandsons running around her house, it should be very entertaining.

Mckenzie is here

So for those of you that didn't know, Rod's sister Megan that lives in Nashville had her baby on October 30th. Her and Brian had a little girl and she is so cute with lots of dark hair. I am so happy for them and can't wait to meet her. Amy flew back to Nashville last week to see her and sent us some pictures. Here are a few that she sent.

We are so happy for you and we love you. Can't wait to see you soon!

Chuck E Cheese

Rod, Caden and I had a fun and relaxing weekend. Friday night Caden spent the night at his Grandma and Grandpa Looney's house while Rod and I went out for all you can eat shrimp at Red Lobster, it was yummy! Saturday Caden came home and we went out to Chuck E Cheese with KC, Katie and their nephew. I forgot how many people can be there on a Saturday, I had a major headache when we left. Caden did get 350 points in tickets to we were able to get a bunch of suckers, some stickers and some other cheap little toys! He had a great time. Sunday we slept in and then did a little Christmas shopping, I can say that I am getting pretty close to done, that is such a huge stress reliever. Here are a few pictures of Caden from this weekend.

Video Games

So...I knew that it wouldn't be long before Caden would want to play video games with his daddy...well...that time has come. We have a little game that has packman, a car game, airplane game that plugs into the TV and he has figured out how to plug it in, turn it on and control the joystick. WOW!! Well, he left it turned on the other night so Rod broke out the x-box controller and put on a car racing game for him. Caden didn't quite understand this one as well as it's a little bit more complicated, but he loved it. Everytime Rod would try to help him he would just say "I do it". It was pretty cute - I am not to fond of his playing that much though, I am only allowing 15-20 minutes and then I turn it off.

Happy Halloween
