Wesley's 1st Halloween!






Happy Halloween! We went and surprised both our parent's tonight. We went up to their house and rang the door bell and had Wesley in his Tigger costume! It was a so fun to see how excited our parent's got when they saw Wesley! Earlier today Wesley rolled over from his tummy to his back! Now it is only a matter of time before our baby starts crawling! It has been one heck of an exciting day today! Here are a few photos of Wesley with our parent's and us in his costume!

Playing in the leaves!




On Sunday we went over to my parent's house. Wesley got to play in the leaves with his grandparent's, Auntie and cousins! We had a blast. Wesley didn't really care for the leaves but I did manage to get a few photos of him looking somewhat interested!

Nap time


Wesley was so into his dinner he actually fell asleep in his high chair! It was the funniest moment yet! He kept trying to eat but his eyes were so heavy he kept closing them but he would open his mouth often so I could put food in it. Finally he just gave in and he was out cold! Ronnie and I couldn't stop laughing! Wesley is doing great. He is FINALLY on a schedule. He takes a morning nap and an afternoon nap. He goes to bed by 8 every night. We had to pack the swing away this week as he is too big for it and he takes his naps now in his crib. We had to purchase TWO new car seats this week. Yikes, that set us back this month. Holy crap! I can't believe how expensive car seats are! Being a mommy is by far the best job I have ever had! It just keeps getting better each day!

Future Linebacker?


I think Wesley may be our ticket to an early retirement? Maybe the Vikings would actually win if he was on their team! Go Vikes!

Another year older!


Happy Birthday, Sis! We went to the Fischer's house to celebrate Sydney's birthday but we also celebrated my sister's birthday too. Her birthday is only 4 days after her daughter Sydney's so she now gets put on the back burner but we never mean too! We love you Danelle!

Sydney's 6th Birthday!






Surprise, Surprise another birthday! We celebrated last Sunday Sydney's 6Th birthday. She doesn't actually turn 6 until October 20Th but with my crazy weekend schedule we had to celebrate a week early. She got lots of nice gifts! She actually got the KISS Cd! Can you believe my niece listens to KISS? What a crazy girl. I think her favorite gift was Polly Pockets-Race to the mall. She actually screamed when she opened it! Too cute!Remember the movie Annie? Of coarse you do who could not like the movie Annie! I had to get my niece that movie. I hope she likes it even though it is an "OLD MOVIE!" Happy 6Th Birthday Sydney!

The Park



Wesley loves to go to the park. He loves to swing! It is fun to go and meet all of the neighbors in our neighborhood. We have met several little boys so Wesley will have lots of playmates in the next year or so!

Happy 4th Birthday Matthew!





On October 1st Matthew turned 4-years-old! It just seemed like yesterday that I was going to the hospital with Ronnie to meet him. I was in my first year of nursing school and I skipped the class to go to the hospital to meet the newest Duscher.The only class I ever skipped in nursing school! I swear! He was born in the morning so Ronnie and I got there a few minutes after he was born. I even remember that we brought Jakie a Scooby Doo mystery van to play with! Wow, where does the time go? We got together at the Duscher's house on Sunday for a quick b-day party!

Yikes, shots!



Wesley had his 6 month appointment yesterday on 10/3! Yes, my baby is already half a year old! Where does the time go? He weighed in at 20 pounds even! He is 28.5 inches tall. He is in the 95Th percentile for weight and the 90Th percentile for height. He did really good with the shots. I took a picture of his cute chubby thighs. I was a bit sad for him that the nurse didn't give him a cute cartoon band aide. He got the boring old plain band aide that us adults use. Next time I am going to say something! You have to look very close at his thighs as the band aide blends in with his skin! Those darn nurses, what where they thinking! :)

"Surprise, Mattie!"


Happy 30th Birthday! FINALLY the baby of the group turns "30!" Welcome to the club, Mattie! Carrie and Mike planned a surprise party at Champp's for the birthday girl. It was a very fun time. Here are us girls posing for a picture. Don't ask Mike how many times he had to retake the picture! Yes, we are all a bit spazy about having to have the "perfect" picture!
