Some pictures of my Girls

I tried to do a little photo shoot with Jorja the other day. Hoping to get a good picture of my big two year old. But, it was too close to nap time. She had a melt down. Only roof roof could comfort her.


Olivia at her corner of the counter. She does all her homework and drawing projects here. She loves to draw and do art projects. She is even excited to do her homework every week. I'm such a lucky mom to have such a good girl.



Liv and Jorja were in the tub last week. When she said she had to poop... so on the toilet we went. I thought this was so funny. A monkey on a toilet. She was making monkey-ooh ooh sounds too. So funny!

Not Prepared

Jorja's 2nd Birthday is next Thursday. I'm completely in awe that she is almost two and I'm dreading it. I just want time to move slower. I don't want her or Olivia to grow up so fast. I'm totally putting off planning anything for two reasons. One, the holiday is screwing with any chance of having a normal family get together for her moment in the spotlight and I don't want Turkey Day to turn into all about her. Two, I'm not ready for her to be so grown up yet. Subconsciously I think I'm procrastinating hoping time might slow down and I wont miss anything. But, it's moving just as fast and now I'm going to be unprepared for whatever I do decided to do. Makes me feel like a bad mom. But, I do have a week... to throw some little thing together that will make her smile.

Random Hawaii Pictures

Some picture Lindz took that I took off of her Facebook page. Can't wait to see them all! These are all along the Hana Highway
I did update some pictures to my original Hawaii post if anyone is interested.


One of our MANY stops along the Hana Highway


Can you find Josh and Blake?


A great picture of the curvy road of Hana highway with the bamboo forest falling into the road. So crazy!


Such a pretty tree!


This is the biggest leaf I think I have ever seen.


On a little hike to see the Falls the boys hiked up above the falls. The water was just raging down!


One of the many bridges we were on.




Old Keanae Landing and a very cool old Church in the middle of this very small town.

Halloween PIcture and Fun

BOO!
Hope everyone had a fantastic Halloween. I would say ours was pretty spectacular. We had a fun get together at my Mommies house. Mom and I started cooking the night before. It was great fun to spend some silly fun with my mom as we made these spooky creations. I hope Olivia enjoyed everything the most. I hope she remembers all the silly things we did for Halloween and that she helped make.


Our yummy bones, spider cookies and ghost cupcakes


We didn't have any red, so we made rainbow brains.


We made two kinds of mummies, these are the pizza mummies. Yummy yummy.


Monster fingers


The delicious spread. We had so much food we had to have leftovers for Sunday dinner. The smoking juice and floating eyeball in the hot chocolate put things over the edge. It was a fun dinner!




Blake actually came dressed up this year. He made a great Shaggy!


His little Devil was pretty darn cute also!


Jaye and Jorja were getting along pretty well.


Grandpa and Sherry came bearing gifts. One for Jorja and one for Jaye. Too cute!



Jorja eating the goods. She was a sticky mess.


My little Garden Gnome


Grandpa and his girls.


Olivia was a very pretty Fairy and Jorja my silly Garden Gnome. Grandma helped us make the costumes. We spent the whole Saturday before Halloween making costumes! Thanks Grandma Launi!


Showing off her new goodie bag.


The gang heading out to Trick-or-treat. The babies got cold and noses running about half way up the second block. Josh ended up taking Olivia the rest of the way. Jorja was so fun to watch. She carried her bag the whole way on her arm, taking the candy from everyone and putting it carefully in her bag. Olivia was an old pro this year. The kids came home with loads of yummy candy that we are trying to ration. Jorja is saying and asking for "cany" very well. We spent the evening visiting with friends and family. Great Grandma Taylor even stayed the day with us. It was so much fun! I spent most of Sunday recovering after staying up talking with Brandy till four am. Though, I still didn't get a game of Settlers in. Maybe next time. Thanks to everyone who came to celebrate with us. Looking forward to next year!


Jorja enjoying her spoils!
