Halloween -- delayed posting

We had a little camera drama with Halloween. It decided not to work properly and not one single picture came out. As such, we will be waiting for big brother Christian to come next week and try again. More to come .....

Township Fall Festival

In our new township, they held a Fall Festival today. There were pony rides, moon bounces, face painting and an area to make scarecrows. One of our favorite neighbors, Shane, was working with the scarecrows! All three kids took solo pony rides -- and the white one was a horse... a big one! Christian and Daddy had a great time with Shane making the scarecrows while Ben tried to help and Maddie wanted to play in the little stream that Mommy had not allowed her to see prior to today. Cousin Paityn and Aunt Tarri were there -- of course! And we all had fun eating popcorn and dancing to the kiddie band that was there too. It was such fun!

Our Little Carnivores!

The kids have been avoiding all meats as of late. They will only eat hot dogs, and not much of that. So Chris and I made these lousy steaks the other night and gave the kids a few chunks on their plates, which, of course, they ignored. Well when we proceeded to start to eat our steaks, they suddenly seemed concerned that we had something they did not. They had it on their plates, but it was all cut up. Maddie started this mess by pulling my plate over to her and then snatching the steak right off it. I was not upset since I had not intention of eating that particular piece of perfectly prepared shoe leather, so I let her have her fun. Turns out the kids like cheap steak!

Sidewalk Chalk

After naptime we all went outside to play with sidewalk chalk in the driveway. We drew lines on the driveway and the kids actually stayed in the designated area! Very very exciting!! More pics on the photos link to the right.

A Team Party!

We were so excited to have all our neighbors from the old house over last month. We had such a great time!! The kids got to play with everyone for a couple hours and then Mommy and Daddy got to play after the kids went to bed. It was such a wonderful time, we wish we could have done it every weekend! Above are some pics of the kids getting horsey rides from Uncle Joe and Uncle Steve! Additional pics are located in the link to the right.

Baby Kelleher is Here!

Momma Bridget was scheduled for induction today at 8am. I went to the hospital to visit her at noon today to help pass the time. Well, she actually naturally went into labor at 3am and was 3cm when I arrived. I hung out with her until her mom came around 3:30-3:45ish. By the time I came home, I saw the post that Baby Kelleher was born at 4:11 today. She does not have her name yet, but she was 5 pounds, 13 ounces and 19 1/2 inches long and has amazing blonde hair. I guess she was waiting for me to leave to come into the world! Bashful little Bah! Well, I went back tonight to see her, Mommy and Daddy...and well, smell that new baby smell. She is beyond gorgeous! and so so sweet. Here are some pics of the new Daddy and hit little Bah!
