Did you say ONE!?

Carter got right down to business... Quinn wasn't quite sure...

W-O-W! That pretty much sums it up... Q&C turned one last week and we celebrated their big one with family and friends. It was an amazing shin-dig and the twinnies were troppers and kicked it with all of us adults staring and singing at them while all of our cameras were going off. I can't even describe how insane, incredible, emotional, proud and well, unbelievable it is that we all (that means everyone) made it through the first year. I love seeing my little ones grow and change everyday, from eating REAL food, to taking their first step to starting to discover this big world we live in and to just become their own little person. We love Q&C!

To a GREAT first season... GO SOUNDERS!

Me and the "bugs"

Well, the first official MLS season has come to an end for our Seattle Sounders and I must say that it is wonderful to have been a part of it. We gathered at the Bakker's for the play-off game against Houston and all had a good time, except for the losing part. Here's to the 2010 season...

Brother and Sister

Quinn and Carter are obviously very aware of each other, but they are definitely 'two peas in pod'. Where ever Quinn goes, Carter goes... if Carter is crying Quinn chimes in... Here they are checking out each other's coats - love it!

The Dragon, Cat and Pumpkin

The Bakker's came over this morning for my b-day breakfast (yummy crepes Niels... thank you!) and since Q&C and Camden didn't get to hang for Halloween last night, we got the kids dressed up for some photos. Cater is the dragon, Camden is the Pumpkin and Quinn is the Cat. Carter didn't really move in the outfit, Camden was pretty much done with the pumpkin gig and Quinn was very intrigued with Camden's costume. It was fun!!!

Happy Halloween!

For Halloween we went over to the Watson's to visit Alice the bumble bee, Erin (Mom) the Lady in Pink and Craig (Dad)! Erin's sister, niece and friend were there too and all were dressed for the occasion, minus me, Shane and Craig. We let the kids hang out while the parents ate a yummy Halloween feast prepared by Erin and here sister, while sipping on some spooky dark and stormy beverages. We then got the kids all dressed (Quinn was Sylvester the Cat and Carter was a dragon) and hit the streets...
