Some Cheap Fun

We got some of these balloons a while back at a birthday party and the kiddos had such a blast with them I looked around and found them at Walmart for 2 for $1. They are great to pull out and blow up when having an off day or when we just need something different to do. They throw them, catch them, roll over them and Dylan has even gotten good at punching them. (Which is what you are supposed to do with the rubber band around your finger.) In the video below they have figured out they can bounce on top of them as well when holding on to the couch. Oh such simple pleasures!

Connor refused to get in his costume!

The day before Halloween, Brittney's work had a trick or treat session for all the residents, so we dressed up the kiddos and headed over for some day-before-Halloween fun.

Connor and Dylan eating up the attention from the residents of The Lakes while big sis Britt guides them around.

An attempt at a group shot. At least Brittney knows how to stand still and take a good picture.

Another attempt at a group shot with Papa, Cousins Devon and Logan and Uncle Steve.

Pumpkin Patch

Our second trip to the pumpking patch was a definite good time. We headed out the the pumpkin fields this year and the kiddos walked around in wonder and amazement at all the different pumpkin sizes and colors. There's even a picture of Connor kissing one.

A new treat this year, we got to go on a tractor pull ride around the farm.

We even hit up the bounce house and slide. Talk about FUN TIMES!

The petting zoo was, of course, a BIG hit. No longer did we have little ones hiding behind Mommy and Daddy's legs. This year ALL FOUR took off and didnt even glance back to see if we were coming.

Brookie was in animal heaven!

Dylan just LOVED this little goat! He kept giving him hugs.

The Power of FOUR!

When we first found out we were expecting quadruplets, we read anything we could get our hands on. Many times we read about how high order multiples will work together to accomplish a single goal. Sometimes this was a good thing, sometimes not so good. Well the other night as I was cleaning up from dinner I saw them helping each other climb the side of the couch and heard a conversation that went something like this:

Hailey - "Help, Baum (pronounced bomb, Haileys nickname for Dylan, dont know where she got it from) help. Oh, oh, that hurts, Baum."
Brooklyn - "Hey, what you guys doin'?"

Hailey - "Do it Connor, do it!!"
Connor - "EEEE Yah!"

Hailey - "My turn, my turn."

Connor - "Oh, almost."

Dylan - Yay Hailey!"

Connor - "Your turn, Dylan."

It was very amusing watching and hearing their antics. This happens more and more often, helping each other and working together. Its cute now, I just hope it stays that way and they dont put this new found power into making mischief.

My little Brookie Butterfly!

My jackets were the hit of the night for Hailey to dress up in.
