Martin family visit
Joe's family got to come see us on their way from Ohio back to Arizona. The kids were completely surprised. Faith got off the bus and started talking to me then stopped mid-sentence when she realized who was with me at the bus stop.

Emma and Aunt Chastidy.
Papa and Levi.
The kids enjoyed playing with Maygen while she was here. They all played and played until they passed out.
Joe's dad and my dad. I had to get this cause it's rare for us all to be together.
Bill, Dixie, Joe, Jenn, Chastidy
It was good to see them all even for a short time. The kids especially loved it. Faith and Levi both cried this morning when they had to leave to go home.

9 month stats
Emma had her 9 month check up today. Lucky for her no shots. They'll hit her with 4 at her 1 year check up though.
Weight: 19lb 6oz
Height: 28 1/4 inches
She's right on track!
In case your wondering why she's not wearing any pants its because she can't stand them. They prevent her from crawling super fast so she wiggles her way out of them.

Few random pictures
Emms with her normal smiles, and I love that it looks like I have alot of hair in this picture.
Sometimes she gets so tired she will fall asleep anywhere.
Faith loves to take self portraits and this is usually what we get. Actually sometimes we get a nice shot up the nose.
She also likes to get Levi but he is a good sport about it.

Cooling off after the Festival
It was much hotter than we thought it was going to be at the Festival so on the way back to the car we happened to pass the spray park and had to let the kids play.
Levi, my little daredevil was in the center where the most water sprays most of the time.

Faith took a little more coercing to go into the center but eventually did it.

What a nice cool off to a hot fun filled day.
Liberty Fall Festival
Joe and I took the kids to the Fall Festival today. We had a great time, we started off with the parade where the kids got tons of candy tossed at them. Then we walked around all the different booths, it was lots of fun.
Time for a snack, as you can tell Levi is deciding if he should wipe all that grease on his shirt. Grease from.......
yummm food you can only get at activities like this. This plate of French fries was at least twice this size when we got it.
Faith thought it was fun to get little free knick knacks from all the stands, at least one of them was giving bags to put it all in.
My kids had to try 1 ride. They both did the slide. I wish I had gotten a better picture of Levi's face on the way down it was comical.
He was so sweet to help Faith up at the bottom.
Emma was behaved and smiling as usual. She is so easy to take around she fits right in.

Oh no! The stairs!
Emma is 9 months today. I can't believe it, time has literally ran away from us. On a side note everyone that means only 3 months til Christmas.
Here is her new favorite thing to do. You wouldn't believe how quiet and sneaky she is about it either. I swear she knows we'll get her down if she makes any noise.
Oh man I'm caught!
She's almost to victory, and don't worry Joe is next to her to catch just in case. You just can't see him in the picture.

Ya see look what I did. Now we have the task of teaching her to go down so she doesn't topple down.

Alldredge Apple Orchard
Today Levi, Emma and I went to the Apple Orchard with some friends. It was so much fun and Levi had the best time. When we first got there all the kids just wandered around looking at everything.
All the kids thought it was fun to follow around the chickens. I don't know how much fun the chickens thought it was but then again they are probably used to it.
Once the group got all together we got together we went on a hay ride around the farm. Everyone was so well behaved and enjoyed all the scenery.

Emma enjoyed herself to. She was great the whole time. She played in the grass and bounced around on the hay ride and just smiled at everyone we passed.
After the hayride the kids all got to listen to a story about bees. As you can see they were all very interested to learn that a bee only makes a teaspoon of honey in its whole life.
After the story they got to look at some real buzzing bees.
Next it was off to feed the goats.
Then to holding the baby kittens. I stayed clear of this activity and washed Levi's hands as soon as he was done or I would have had itchy eyes and been sneezing like crazy.
Finally we got to go pick some apples. Levi loved this part and couldn't wait to wash one and eat it.


"Look what I got mom!"
We had a really great day. It was fun to watch Levi interact with all the other kids and just have a genuinely good time. Of course as we were leaving he says, "That was fun mom what are we doing next?" Seriously this boy could go on forever.

Mckinley B-day Party
Faith went to one of her really good friends 6th birthday party on Tuesday. She had a great time with all the girls. I am so glad that we have friends like this with great kids and great parents that we feel so comfortable letting our kids be around.
Thanks Court and Brittany for including Faith, this is all she could talk about. Once she stopped talking about how much fun she had she was out like a light.

Baby fun
Yesterday I went on a walk with some friends. Emma and Jaxson (a friend of mine's baby) sat face to face in the stroller. It was cute how they interacted with eachother. Emma kept picking up Jaxson's pacifier and he would just watch. She also kept leaning in for the big kiss. I think he just thought she was silly.
Aren't they so cute!
