We have had quite an exciting week starting with the boys getting to sleep in their new rooms on Sunday night. They are both loving being upstairs and we are loving not having Xavier in our room anymore. To make the week even more exciting Orion has decided it's time to go on the big boy potty! It's been interesting trying to remember to ask him but now he is getting to where he is telling us it's time to go. We have bribed him with a few toys but starting tomorrow no more toys and he is wearing underwear instead of pull ups.....wish us luck! Our last big news is that Xavier had his 2 month check up today and the doctor had nothing but great things to say about him. I almost couldn't believe my eyes when I put him on the scale and found out that he now weighs 14 pounds and 11 ounces!!! I am really building some Mommy muscles carrying him around all day. Not only is he in the 96th percentile for weight he has moved up to the 95th percentile in height at 24.5 inches long. We are digging out the 6 month clothes for him already because most of the 3-6 month no longer fit! What an amazing week, parenthood sure is awesome!

Happy Halloween

We started out the morning coloring on some pumpkins

Then Uncle Pete, Auntie Dawn, Trevor and Kyle came out to play

"Yep I am extremely cute"

I love my boys!

Orion looks so grown up going trick or treating

What a beautiful day for getting some candy!

What a great Halloween we had yesterday. It was the first time Orion went trick or treating and he did a great job. He even managed to score some candy for his little brother! Xavier did great too, he slept the entire time we were out.

A great week

Orion wanted me to get out of the chair so he could sit there and put his feet on this foot stool to "rock his feet"

Harper didn't want to lay down, she wanted to play with the big kids too!

It's so much fun to have friends over to play
