I'm kind of a sucker for this kind of stuff...  While we were in AZ both of Trav's grandparents were able to visit so my kids were able to see all 7 grandparents in one visit (my grandpa died when I was 2...) What a great visit before heading to Hawaii.  So while were there we had to get a 4 generation picture!  Great looking group of boys if you ask me! :)

While we were in AZ I decided Thanksgiving would be a fun time for David to have his first solid food!  Since Travis was going hunting with his Dad on the day of Thanksgiving we did it on McBride Thanksgiving 2 days ahead. :)  He did eventually like the rice cereal and now a month and a half later he LOVES to eat!  Anything really but so far his faves seem to be avocado, banana, and butternut squash!  The best part was the audience he had.

 

Hmmm what is this?

Not sure he likes it.

I promise he DID end up liking it.  He ate his whole bowl.

And here is his audience!  HAHA.  Anya, Eric, Brookie J, Ryan, Pyper, Lex, and Tay.  They all loved it.

Full baby!

I just hate the Army sometimes.  A friend wrote this on Facebook and I'm going to paraphrase because this is exactly how I feel! She said, I wish I could take all the people I have met and loved at all my different duty stations and have them follow me all around.  We'll have our own community in Hawaii. That last part was definitely my add it.  I LOVE Hawaii and think this would be a great place to set up my community!! HA! 

 

We had to say good bye to quite a few people when THEY left GA.  But leaving Nic and Dak, and Emily, Bryan, Ayden and Brady was NOT cool.  There were tears.  Lots of tears.  I have been so truly blessed with the wonderful people I have gotten to call my friends.  Laessle Family we are still hoping for the possibility of an Hawaii PCS.  Dicenzo Family if you insist on moving to TX I am ready for a visit ASAP!!!!

 

Dak and Lex.  Sweetest friends playing with Nic's phone! 

Ryan and Nic 2 peas in a pod!  I hope she doesn't kill me for posting this picture but I LOVE it!

Sleepover!  Thank you Nic for letting us crash at your house for the last week!!

LOVE these girls so much I am posting this pic even though I look terrible!  That's love! :)

Lexi, Ayden, and Dak.  HAHA These 3 crack me up!

I mean these are some stinking awesome kids!!

I almost forgot about these!  I know we've had tons of soccer pictures but they're just so cute! I am hoping to find a good soccer program now that we've moved b/c the girls really enjoy playing!  Ryan was on her good friend Raegans team and they loved being together!  Lexi is really improving and I love that she enjoys something so much!

 

 

Love that smile.

Ryan and her friend Raegan.  Yup team clowns!

The whole team

Konnor even got to come to a game!

Pretty Lex.  Ya we missed her team pictures.  OOPS! :)

Here are some random pictures from October. 

 

 

Sweet David!

Mostly I am not a fan of baby boy clothes.  Girl clothes are just so much cuter but I LOVE how cute he is in church clothes!!!!



Again in church clothes!  Travis came to church with us b/c the girls had their primary program and I had to get a pic of the 2 most handsome boys in the whole world! 



So sweet!

So random but this picture cracks me up!  They had sunglass day at school but it was freezing outside so they inssited on wearing the hat Grandma Kerry got them last year for Christmas!

I thought about just starting clean on my blog instead of trying to play catch up but I really love having everything on-line in one place of everything we've gotten to do and I know if you're looking at my blog you appreciate the catch up so we're going all the way back to Halloween...

Alexis is the one that came up with the m&m idea.  She said out of the blue one day she REALLY wanted to be the red m&m... Followed by Ryan also wanting to be an m&m.  While searching on-line I found a baby m&m costume and then the adult costumes and although Travis and I are not the "dressing up types" I couldn't resist!  So the kids were m&m's and Trav and were the bags!  So fun. :)  The kids had a great Halloween!  We went trunk or treating with the ward and then on the 31st we went around the neighborhood.  We started out with Ayden, Brady, Dak, and Rishi and at one point we ended up with about double that amount of kids! :)  I truly love Halloween now that I have kids!



The M&M family.

Sweet baby's first Halloween!

I have the best kids!

The group we started with.

The group we ended up with! :)

I mea,n honestly, I absolutely have the CUTEST kids! :)  I always think they look like each other when I see them  and in some ways they do all look alike but in some ways not so much... I think David and Alexis look more alike than Ryan but all are adorable!  Here they all are at roughly the same age...  Ryan was such a PEANUT!
