Halloween and Simon Boy

Me and Shack a Bee right before we went trick or treating with the carpenters. I know what your thinking what a scary dragon!!!
Mommy Daddy and Scary Dragon!!!!!
With the cousins! Rylie was a Rock star vampire, Kynlee was a dalmation, and my favorite was Bryson as a dead Tony Romo! Can you tell we are not cowboy fans?
Hangin with Grandma and Grandpa Yates after enjoying some hot chocolate. Look at that bigg belly that dragon has after us discovering his love for donuts. His love for food he gets from his mother. Which may be the only thing he has from me, sorry buddy.
This picture is a perfect description of a proud Grandpa. Everyone I have shown this to agrees with me.
Getting kisses from Great Grandma Rigby. he loves getting kisses!
Sweet Ky leaned in to give him a kiss and he decided he wanted to check out her ear and hair.
Getting some halloween loves from aunt Nat!
With aunt Kristin. Caught him yawning in this one he was completely exhausted by the end of the night and sick of being in his hot costume. Thanks all the family for making Shakobe 's first Halloween so memeroble. We had a blast and were so grateful to spend time with everyone the passed two weeks for all the activities!!
And I wanted to post this picture of cutie pie simon with shakobe. Simon is getting baptized tomorrow and we are so proud of him and love him so much. Thanks for being such a great example to your little cousin shakobe I wish we could be there but I hope he knows we will be thinking about him all day and we think he is so great for all that he is doing. Love you buddy and we cant wait to see you so we can give you big hug cuz we miss you so much!!

First of all our cute niece Kylie turned 4 today!! This is her at her birthday party with the present we gave her. She is so adorable we love her so much!!

Getting ready the decorate cupcakes at Jess's halloween party at her house. We were in charge of cupcakes and decorating supplies for the party and I was pretty proud that I made them myself. Ha Ha

Here they are decorating. Shakobe loves to be involved and do it himself already. Boy are we in for a interesting future with this independent little man.
How did they do?? Shakobe even got a taste and loved it.
Bugs was mad at Gregg for putting frosting on her nose. These two live to tease eachother its hilarious.
We played the game where you have to eat a donut hanging on a string without using your hands and whoever does it the fastest wins. Mano won this one.
Big boys compete!! Ryan was the champ of that one his even fell on the mat and he got down on the floor and finished it. True dedication way to go. Lol
I love in the moment pictures especially this won cuz Dax is having so much fun with his Grandpa.
Finally all us girls had a go add it and as suprising as it may sound I was the Winner!!
Gregg caught a picture of my mouth full and covered with donut! Not sure if I should be very proud of this but oh well it made the night.
Played pin the wart on the witch!! My favorite was when it was Jess's husband erik's turn and saylor just yelled out "ITS JESS'S DAD"S TURN!" funny little girl.
Little man tried to eat the wart when it was his turn but he still put it on a pretty good spot!!
Had a candy walk to earn treats to eat while we watched a Halloween movie.

Ended the night watching the Haunted Mansion. It was so much fun thanks jess for planning such a wonderfully fun evening. Its why I love this time of year.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN ALL!! love the Rigby family!!!!

Pumpkin walk with the Fam!!!


Saylor asked if she could push Shakobe in his stroller which is pretty funny because she had to stick her arms straight up in the air to reach the handle and she could not see where she was going. LOL








This is my favorite picture ever. Shakobe is Woody, Kanyon is Buzz Lightyear and Dax is Jessi. Its the best.



The Zombie set. For some reason they have the biggest fascination with Zombies. so thats what they are pretending to be.


Harry Potter Monkey. Had to do this one since we are reading him the series right now.


Of course The Christmas Story is a family favorite so Bryson and Gregg had to get a picture next to "FRAGILE."

What a fun weekend we were able to go to the pumpkin walk last night with my parents, the carpenters, and the Herds. Great job on the pumpkin walk this year we loved it.

Saylor kept asking to hold shakobe so here she is taken care of him. look at them he is 4 months old and she will be 4 years old in febuary and they look about the same size.lol

Playing Angry Birds with Dax.

Silly boys had alot of fun. Dax is so awesome with him. Ha Ha

Kanyon man and Gregg played the Wii dax and saylor joined in too.

This is my favorite picture that I took this weekend. So adorable

Playing with his carpenter and Herd cousins.

Grandpa called to talk to him while he was at work so here he is tellin grandpa about his day. Mostly squeeling he loves to talk to people on the phone. Ha Ha

Him and Kyn! Had to put this on cuz they were posing so perfect for the camera.

So little man loves music so this weekend we tried putting his dads Laker head phones on and let him listen to alot of Johnny Cash and the Beatles.

This is him literally 5 minutes later. You be the judge, do you think he liked it??


So the Herds were able to come up for conference weekend this weekend and we have not seen them for a while and have missed them so we were so glad to spend some time with them. Those kids are so great with shakobe and he has so much fun with all his cousins. Lots of games snacking and watching movies which are like our favorite things. Thanks guys for coming up!! Me and gregg, Grandpa Henry, the Carpenters and the Herds played a mean game of family football today it was so much fun. I love conference weekend because the family can get together and we always do fun things. I also want to say how excited I was for Bryson and Rylie they got to go watch conference at the conference center. Way to go guys; as Grandpa Henry would say you guys are Spiritual Giants!! Love you all hope you also had a great weekend!

Watching college football with his daddy! His dad always dresses him in his Notre Dame clothes on saturday to "support his future college team he is going to play for" as his dad says. Even though I think thats too far away. ha ha. Gregg always teases me that I won't be allowed at his games anyways cuz i will be down on the field trying to pull him off if I think someone is being too rough with him. What a meany Im sure that I can behave most of the time!! Ha ha

So cute they always grab eachothers hands and hold them.

Shakobe trying to steal Kynlee's binky even though his is already in his mouth. Greedy Greedy. lol. He did end up getting it the silly little boy.

Its so funny they are so amazed by eachother.

Yea these two are not related they only sleep the exact same way. Shakobe must have been having good dreams as you can tell he is smiling again in his sleep.

Our little man is 4 1/2 months now I cant believe how fast time has gone by. He had his four month check up on monday and man has he grown. I must say first he was very brave with his shots he only cried for a minute and then just wanted to sleep the rest of the night with no fuss. Very proud of him.

Weight 18.5 pounds, 94th percentile
Height 26 3/4 inches, 94th percentile
Head size 99th percentile (smart boy)
We have reached the point to start solid foods and juices. Our lives are about to get alot messier!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

HAPPY HALLOWEEN
As you can tell me and Gregg dressed up as bacon and eggs. ha ha. It was the first time in years either of us dressed up and Im so happy my husband was such a good sport about it. We spent halloween night at my sisters house watching my all time favorite halloween movie Hocus Pocus.

Me and my niece and nephew on halloween night. Rylie was a "cute witch" as she would say and my nephew was Edward. The man of all our dreams. It was a fun night.

We or should I say I dressed up our kitty for halloween. He absolutely hated it but put up with it for about five minutes to make me happy.

Rollercoaster

Rollercoaster
So I had to show everyone this picture of our family on the Atlantis rollercoaster at sea world. The looks on everyones faces is priceless. Lol, especially my sisters and myself.
