October Happenings & New Pix

I've been slacking off posting cause it's just been un-orderly around here. It's hard when both kids need mom at the same time, and they only want mom to do it. Yes, Fira cried out saying 'mum' at 3 different times already and she literally stopped crying as soon as Quinn gave her to me. It may be a trick that Quinn taught her though. We're re-training Hazel to sleep all by herself from zero again. We're crossing our fingers for that.

But, here are the new pics of our October & also recent ones:

Look what Fira can do now (besides crying & have poopie diaper)


Making Caramel Apple (my favorite)

Hazel with her best friends


Hanging out having sisterly Love




Carving pumpkin


Haloween & trick or Treating



School fieldtrip to Remlinger Farm


Wearing outfits from tante Vivie...thanks ;)


There were times when I thought 'boy, life is much simpler back when we're single'. I could sleep whenever I want to, enjoy my meal, shower, and have my brain functions properly. But, I won't trade my family for anything though - I'm grateful beyond belief that I'm trusted to care for these two beautiful spirits. I just hope the ride will be better soon, in the meantime I'm counting my blessings: healthy family, a loving husband who helps, plenty of food, free place to live (thanks Mom& Dad B), debt/loan free (even though we can certainly use a cheaper health insurance), wonderful in-laws, & the best parents a daughter can have.

THANK YOU for the update! Hang in there! You are performing God's work; an instrument in His hands and what beautiful work you have (although it doesn't always feel like that, huh?).

Tell Quinn I am so sorry for Butt Dialing him so often. :( and GOOD LUCK with his exams!

Safira is getting so big already!! What are you feeding that kid? :) We miss you a lot and we will miss you terribly on Thanksgiving. Things aren't orderly at your place? I doubt that. ;) Cut yourself lots of slack so you don't get down on yourself. You're a marvelous mother and a fabulous friend. Hang in there!
