A little snip here...

and a little snip there...and THEY are on!!!! Been dying to get these on Lola's feet, but they were just too tight for her Fred Flinstone feet, so i cut the elastic on each side just a little and WAAAALAAAA! I love them! Thank you Creel Crew for spotting these long before Camden was born! Hopefully she can wear hers soon and they can match!

Together again!

Susie, Jerrel (I never know if I spell that right - in fact I think that I spell it different every single time), and Jayla joined us for dinner last night! Susie had to drop off some garage sale stuff, so we decided to make a family date out of it! Lola and Jayla were reunited after too long from seeing each other! Jayla tried kissing Lola, while Lola tried playing with Jayla's earrings and head! They are so fun to watch together! Next time we'll have to try getting together a little sooner in the evening, both girls were ready for bed towards the end, Lola especially. She was cranky pants!
We made dinner for the Garrett Family. We had this really tasty chicken, asparagus, and rolls! Kyan helped prepare everything and spent a good half and hour in the kitchen getting everything prepared! He even got his hands dirty! If anyone is looking for a new chicken recipe, that is SUPER EASY read below:

Corn Flake Crusted Chicken
(ok, so that isn't the official name, but I thought that it sounded good)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

1 cup crushed Corn Flakes
1 cup Parmesan Cheese
1 packet Ranch Dressing Seasoning Mix
*Mix together*
In a small dish on the side melt 1/2 stick butter

Take thawed chicken breast, dip both sides in butter, then in mixture on both sides, place in casserole dish. Mixture makes approximately 6-8 chicken breasts. Bake at 350 degrees for 45-55 minutes.

Lola's New Toy

After Kyan's T-ball game on Saturday, we stopped by the new Super Target and splurged on a new walker for Lola. She was getting tired of bouncing I think. The bouncer is going to hopefully go to good use at Camden's house! Lola loved walking around in this - especially backwards. She is slowly getting the whole forward walking thing...it looks like she is hopping in it, because she uses both feet at the same time to go forward!

Fun with Grandparents Nebraska

Swimming @ their pool - the kids loved it because it's heated!!! Lola cried going in, not sure about the pool at first (it's been awhile since she has been swimming), but she soon found that splashing everything, including herself, was a blast! Kyan loved playing with both grandma and grandma and even found some time to catch us some dinner with his new fishing pole!

Lola managed to get herself stuck underneath the couch while playing around on the rug! She didn't care though - she kept on smiling!

So happy!
Just chillin', waiting to see what they were doing next!

New Hat + Gloves = Happiness for Kyan

Went to Target the other night to get some winter clothes for Kyan. He spotted gloves (not shown) that had the fingers cut off the top of them, and he thought they were the coolest things in the world and this great hat! He is always freezing in the mornings, so hopefully these will help!

A Sucker and a Screamer!!!

Above pictures show Lola's new way to communicate - SCREAMING! It is hilarious and she does it constantly. Kyan will scream/screech back at her and they have full on conversations!

Pictures below are what happens when you dig through your son's halloween candy and find a sucker for your baby to try out! She loved that sucker and was furious when I took it away after about 30 seconds! It was good while it lasted!

Trunk-or-Treat

Last night we went with Donna to her church's "Trunk-or-Treat"! It started with a chili cook off, costume parade, carnival games, and then off to the trunks of cars to get candy - hence "trunk" instead of trick! A very cute idea! We had a blast! Kyan tried on his Red Power Ranger Suit for the first time (as I bought it off craiglist.com - love that site - and Auntie Rae picked up for him). He was in love! The entire night he was trying to walk in slow motion and do the cool moves! Little Miss Lola just might have been the cutest ballerina on the planet! I searched for little ballerina shoes for her, after talking to Auntie Susie, where she found some for Jayla at Old Navy, but had no luck (wrong size) and ended up at Target with a great find! Who knew leg warmers came in baby sizes! I think it just might have made her outfit!
Tomorrow we are heading to Grandpa B's house to hit up his neighborhood for candy and spend a little time passing candy out at his house with him! The only thing that would make this Halloween complete is to have Grandpa Jerry and Grandma Julie here...here's to hoping that maybe one day this will happen...until then know we LOVE YOU and wish you were here!
Hope everyone has a safe and happy Halloween!
