Just for FALL fun....

Well it id my favorite time of year...which translates to lots of new posts. Mads is starting to come into her little voice. I use the word "little" loosely. She is a big fan of her meals...It is not wise to stand in her way when it is meal time....you will be hearing about it for awhile :)
Well miss helpful here is attempting to work in the yard with fall clean up...needless to say shoveling one leaf into her bucket at a time was not super productive. Plus she needed to stop to spend quality time with her pumpkin family. Any time Bee sees a Frankenstein anything she calls it DADA...Makes my heart smile just a little!

Trunk your Treat....

Well this was Ruby's first time trunk-or-treating....Mads was also present but as you will see in the last picture she was quality control more than anything:)
I will probably dress them up again...because I cant help myself!!

Pumpkin pickin...

Well we had an awesome family night at the pumpkin patch...Grand Pa Green, Uncle big Al, Uncle Dave and Aunt Nicole came to play with us. We fed sheep, had a hay ride and picked pumpkins out of the patch...It was a great time. WE ended our adventure at our favorite Mexican restaurant. Great memories for the girls to look back on!
I couldn't resist sharing these!! Mads is growing so much everyday. Grandma Green couldn't help herself and bought this pumpkin ensemble. Mads had heads turning at church. My primary class kept asking "Sister Colby your baby is fatter than my pumpkin". WE prefer to say pleasingly plump!

Fall fun...

Well I freakin love the holidays...And I am forcing my love for the holidays on my babies :)
I am sure Bee and Mads will look back on pictures from there child hood and wonder why everything had to be matchy-match....and my reply will be....well I actually don't have a good one but I have a few years to work on it :)

These two are little characters that is for sure...more fall fun to follow...Clint will not have to work the holidays this year so it will be lots of fun family outings coming soon!!

PS!! Can anyone give me any good tips on how to make my blog cute...I screwed it up and am struggling to get it back...I will do anything :)

6 months and growing...

Well Mads is 6 months next week...where did the time go? Mads is definitely the peaceful one in the home. Mads has really completed our home. She is my snuggle buddy and has started to give kisses. Tragically they are the open mouth ones...we are working on less drool and close the mouth. She is quiet and it definitely takes a lot to get her to react. Mads reminds me a lot of my older brother. He can give you a look that makes you crazy...and you walk away with no come back...Well Mads is following in those foot steps....Umm...I know I am a broken record on this topic but I can't help myself.....It kills me that Ruby is growing into a little lady....It seems like yesterday I was leaving the hospital with her....It is going to fast....Make time slow....I love these girls...They make it all worth it!!

morning routine....





A typical day at the Colby house would consist of a large purple dino, juice, food and a photo shoot. I love the last picture...Ruby appears utterly disgusted with her mother and Mads appears concerns she is bigger than her sister who is 15 months older...

Bipolar baby....



The many faces of Mads...Well I am struggling to keep this updated with current news of the babes...but I will try a little catch up....Mads rolled over for the first time around 4 months...she is now 5 months. Her main motivation to roll over is to watch tv with Ruby. We started her on solid foods around 4 months too...It is a work in progress...Mads is definitely the "chill one"! Ruby adores her and is an awesome big sister to Mads....Mads is in 12 month clothing and appears to be on her way to sharing Ruby's clothes.
