Kristine's Baby Shower

Kristine's baby shower was yesterday. It was a lot of fun. Thanks to everyone who came. We hoped you enjoyed yourselves. Here are a few pictures. Sorry there are not more...I was in charge of writing down gifts and Kerri was in charge of pictures during that time....as you can see she did not take that many!! Oh well I am waiting for my aunt to send me some. She took lots!

The prizes.

The mother-to-be!

The delicious cake!! So good!! So glad there is some left over so I can have more today. Ha ha!

Pregnant Sisters!

Opening gifts.

Me in front of Kristine's letters that were on her wedding cake. My Aunt Mary made her centerpiece.

Cute booties....hoping for opposite sex so I can have the other ones. Ha ha!

A Whole Lot of Catching Up!!!

Of course in pictures!! Ha ha! That's the only way I can tell you all about our month!! These first ones are from Dave's surprise party. It was a lot of fun. Sorry to those who could not make it or were not invited. I had to draw the line somewhere. The pictures look blurry on here....not sure why. They are fine on my camera and computer. Sorry:) Enjoy anyway.

Oops...this one was from Dave's office. They wanted to take all these animals home....I have enough bears already. Every time Dave goes on a trip he likes to give them away....but the kids always find them and add them to their collection. Lately they have been playing zoo with them. They make different cages for all the animals and then they check them because they are the zookeepers. So cute!

Back to Dave's party....she was attached to me that night. And No she is not drinking coffee...just lemonade! Ha ha!

Dave, Scott, Stevie C. and Mr. Socha

Loving his Daddy. No one had any idea about the party. It was a little tricky not talking about it in front of Dave or the kids. When everyone yelled surprise...Isaiah was a little scared at first.

Yeah...Hopey loves Rachael. Thanks for coming. Doesn't she look great. She had a baby 5 days before this. You would never know it.

Silly kiddos.

So sweet!

Dave with his Aunt Sue (godmother) and Uncle Don.

See always smiling :)

Me and D with his parents.

Pa and Isaiah.

Hopey loved Melanie at the end. It was great to have her in someone else's arms. She gets heavy after awhile:)

Pumpkin time! Tita and Jaja bought them a huge pumpkin at church, but had to leave that day. So Pa carved it with them. Isaiah actually pulled the insides out this year!! Yeah!! So proud! Hopey just watched!

Oops this one snuck in here.

Our trip to Notre Dame....this is the way to travel!! :)

Sorry they are all mixed up....more pumpkin carving!

At the Notre Dame Basilica. It is so beautiful there!

CHEESE!! Wow...she actually smiled for the camera!!

Fall Fun today. It was so beautiful out today and the kids loved jumping in the leaves for the first time.

My big boy!

And big girl!!
