Blankie Babes

My kids love their blankies! Avri has started dragging hers around the house and doesn't get out of bed without it. Macallers likes hers too but she will just take Avri's when she isn't looking. Macall chews and rubs hers against her face now, just like Brax.

Too cute!

Macallers is walking

My Call girl is walking. She is getting pretty good but still crawls a lot because she is faster that way. She looks like a little Frankenstein with her arms straight out as she walks. Way to go Callers.

Sitting in...

Avri climbs and sits in anything she can find. It is funny to see what this little one comes up with.DrawersLaundry BasketsAnd my favorite is the frying pan! Love it!

Round 3

By Saturday night the girls were done with dressing up and going out. We made it to our Trunk or Treating and Justin brought the girls home while the boys and I went to Holverson's for chili and scones. YUM!It rained on us and was so cold but we did it super fast and went to Em's to enjoy wamr chili and scones.The loot...

Trick or Treating at Daddy's office

Watch out CRS, the Hatch kids are coming Trick or Treating.
The boys were so excited to get to go to Justin's office on Friday. They couldn't wait until the girls woke up from their naps so we could leave. Once we got there they knew exactly what to do. They said trick or treat at each door and ended with a thank you. They have it down.Loading up their bags. Avri choosing candyOne of Justin's co-workers walked around with us to make sure the kids got all the candy at the empty desks. Plus she loves the kids so it was an excuse to play for a while.Bumble Bee CallersBubble Bee AvesThe boys showing me what they got. Checking out daddy's candy

Snow (October 25, 2010)

Snow? I am not ready for snow! When Brax saw the snow he wsa so excited and said, "Oh, it's Christmas now!" They can't wait for Christmas! After breakfast they insisted on going out to play. They got all bundled up and played for 1/2 hour. I convinced them to come inside so we could get ready to go to the movie with Krew. We went to the dollar movie, that on Mondays is $0.75, and saw Toy Story 3 with Ashley, Liv, Krew, Em, Kamdon, and Kyler. The boys loved it. By the time we got home the snow was all gone and I am not missing it.
Last week was our last nice week. The boys begged me to get out their lawn mowers. They played with them for an hour. Check out this HUGE kitty that Grandma Merrill gave us for Halloween!
Taylor hated it at first but now loves it.

Painting Pumpkins

After picking pumpkins the boys wanted to paint them. They did such a great job.

Sunday

Happy Birthday babies. Ok, it's not their birthday yet but they got their birthday present from Papa and Grandma Merrill this week. The boys were so excited to see two big boxes and still have not realized that this is the girl's birthday present. I put it together on Friday and we were going to hide it but it was too big to put anywhere so they got it early. The girls are still trying to figure out what to do with it. They have to fight to get in there with those big brothers but they are loving it. P.S. No judging me on their pj's. If I have money to spend I am going to buy cute clothes, not girly pj's :-)Aves is figuring out the phone fast. Taylor and Braxton are running up the phone bill talking to Kamdon, Kyler and Elimy (no I didn't spell it wrong, that is how the boys say her name)
While the boys were out playing football tonight us girls headed downstairs to play for a while. The girls are at a great age and are tons of fun!
Macall is trying to walk now. She takes a few steps and then giggles. She will be walking before we know it.Aves is a climber. She loves this chair!Callers playing some music and loving it!!These boys are going to be so sad when it is no longer football weather outside. They play almost everynight. Taylor loves to tackle and loves to play with Justin. Brax likes to play but not as rough as Taylor. He likes to make the touch downs without getting tackled.
