Not so innocent!

Not quite the face of innocence! Colton--or Captain Cuddle--is proving to be a busy little guy to put it nicely! He gets into everything except the hundreds of boy toys that fill our house! I am hoping Santa brings something really cool to capture his attention more than a few minutes or we will be locking all doors in the house (bedrooms, bathrooms, etc.) in order to keep him from causing mayhem within minutes of being out of site!
Our puzzle cupboard emptied in a matter of minutes, not to mention the blue marker (turns out it wasn't washable either as it only faded slightly after the first shower) all over himself!
"It wasn't me, Mom!"

All Saints Day '09

Logan as St. Christopher carrying Baby Jesus on his back--the one and only doll we own (so far!) It was a fairly mellow Halloween with everyone taking their turns being sick. Logan was finally able to make it to school for his party after missing the last four days. Therefore, I was able to make it too to catch a few pictures of our "saints" at least. Unfortunately, there were no pictures taken on Halloween the next day--how do you not take pics on Halloween? We were split up as Caleb was the healthiest and went trick or treating with friends and we went drive by trick or treating last minute with the other 3 boys--only to about 5-6 houses this year.

Caleb as St. Francis of Assissi
For Halloween he was a Ninja Warrior, Logan was Ice Wolf Ninja, Peyton was a red Power Ranger at school and Darth Vader for trick or treating (we have a plethora of costumes from years past, not to mention Christmas and b-days), and little Colton was Tigger from Winnie the Poo--could've had some cute pictures but mom has been slacking the last few months with the picture taking, not to mention a whole lot of other areas! Ahhh...pregnancy.

God Bless Kolby

Peyton is such a proud big cousin and loves holding Kolby--he does a great job too!

Mom and Dad (Britt and Trav), Godparents (Alyson and Paulie) and Deacon Dan and of course, Kolby

God Bless Kolby!

Kolby and his proud Godparents

Just too Cute for words!!

September (Good Bye Summer)

First day of school for Logan and Caleb--Where did the summer go?
Caleb's 1st day of 3rd grade

Logan's 1st day of 1st grade

It's just you and me now! The big brothers are off to school and we get to play with their toys!! Rock on!

Go Twins!

It's not summer without at least fitting in one Twins game--last time we'll see them in the Metrodome anyway.
Rally caps!

Slushies too!

Littlest Twins fan!

Peyton opted to hang back at Uncle Brad's house and play!

Summer finally arrived!

Peyton, Logan and Matthew swimming for about 7 hrs. that day at the cabin once summer finally arrived! We crammed in a bunch of activities: boating, tubing, swimming, diving off of the raft, backflips, barbeques, bonfires--4 straight days at the cabin to just enjoy!!! Aaaaahhhhh, summer!
Caleb and Davin waiting their turn for the tube

Colton just lookin cute while "watching" his brothers play t-ball and baseball

German Cousins home from Sweden!

Dani, Lily, Aaron and Calvin--so good to see you!
Tallest to shortest--cool shirts

Boys--they are all monkeys

Lily and the boys!

Peyton and Lily (believe it or not they are only a year and a few months apart)--they became fast friends and although Lily spoke mostly in German, she said Peyton could understand what she said and Peyton did his fair share of teaching Lily a few things in English--their favorite being, "Kick 'em in the butt!"

Without even playing in a game, Caleb came home from the t-ball tourney with this shiner after playing catch with a friend!
2nd place!!

This is what Logan brought home from the tourney!! Hardware! How great he played! He even made a double play by himself and had 5 homeruns!

Peyton and Uncle Ty on the 4th of July

Trouble--Little Brentie and Little Chris of the future! Yikes! Peyton and his buddy Rory seem to have the same fun together as their fathers still do! Well, maybe not the same kind of fun, but lots of fun!

Rainy Day in June

Mud...
Fourwheelers...

Rubber boots (that may be a little too big to stay on those little feet)...

and puddles...

equals...hours of fun for my boys!
