As usual the boys spent lots of time in November playing out in the backyard. Making mud pies, having mud fights, and getting super dirty. That's ok though, after all these years with them I am so over the whole keeping them clean thing. Every boy needs to get super muddy once in a while, or maybe every day!
Our boys love going to the Avila Barn during the Fall. They have tons of hay everywhere and a big fun maze. They always have so much fun feeding the animals and running around like banchees. This year, they both wanted to go in the big maze. So I went in with them the first time and they wanted to keep going in. Honestly, it kinda freaked me out and I didn't like feeling of being trapped in there. So I let them go back in by themselves. I told them to stay together and they went through several times with no problems. Well the last time, they were taking a little longer to poke there little heads out. I wasn't worried, I figured they were just roaming around in there together. Well, Austin came out without Kaden. He said that he had lost Kaden. So we waited a few more minutes, still no Kaden. I still wasn't worried. Then this lady comes out holding Kaden's hand and he was in tears. Poor guy got lost in there and couldn't find his way out. He panicked when he lost Austin and was just beside himself in tears. So this sweet lady helped him find his way out. He was totally traumatized. It brought back flashbacks for me at the midstate fair going into those creepy fun houses with the mirror mazes. I totally got lost once, and it traumatized me forever. Kaden wouldn't go back in that maze again. Sad...Here are a few pictures of them at the barn this year.

The boys had a really great Halloween this year. Lots of candy...how could it be bad? Kaden decided that he wanted to be superman this year and Austin wanted to be a monkey. Grandma Diane made Austin's costume. She put some much work and love into it. It just made it more special for him. They went trick or treating earlier in the day down at the village of AG, just to all the businesses. It was kinda crazy down there and I don't think we will do that next year. Later on that evening, we went over to Papa and Grandma's house for dinner and trick or treating. There is not much more to say, so I will just post some adorable pictures...
We are expecting our 3rd baby sometime in either late April or early May 2011! We are over the moon excited and oh so scared at the same time...
I have gotten so behind in my blogging. I've missed some very important events the last few months and it is just not acceptable to skip it. First up, Austin's 3rd birthday!!!! Yep, Our little man is 3!!! Where did all that time go?! I know, I say that about every birthday every year, and I probably will forever, so get used to it ;)
Austin had a fun birthday. I was knee deep in first trimester misery, so the planning and prepping process was hard. Luckily when they are young, all they really need is their family, friends, presents, and of course a bounce house!!!! We rented him a bounce house, and he literally jumped in it for 4 hours!!! He had so much fun. We kept it pretty simple and invited just family and some neighbors. Too many people is overwhelming for everyone... Here are the pictures to prove that Austin had the time of his life!
Then we went over to Papa and Grandma's house on Sunday, his actual birthday. We had ourselves a little party for the big birthday boy.
The boys had a great time giving "fast Grandma" a doctor checkup with Austin's new doctor kit. So as you can plainly see, Austin had a wonderful birthday! We love you little man!
