School Halloween Party

Kadence and her fave new buddy Emma! Kadence's wand is pvc pipe, satin, lots of wine charm hoops that she beaded and some ribbon. I was impressed at how well it turned out!
Her teacher is in the back dressed as Snow White

Her freshly curled hair! No matter how much you curl and spray that hair the curl doesn't last long!

Fall Fest

They thought they could pick up every pumpkin they saw
Kadence checked out the Coast Gaurd boat that was there




There was trick or treating, popcorn, snow cones, and hot dogs but our child tried to eat sticks.

Reasons for my exhaustion!

I wasn't feeling good yesterday and he sensed my weakness. Luckily he hadn't pulled any knives out of the dishwasher yet.



Now that he walks, he has been grabbing the clothes, running them out to the living room and throwing them out there.

Smack!





I couldn't find the pic of him having smashed my blender into a million pieces but believe me -it happened! Anyone needing assistance in any demolition work can rent him by the hour!

Nelson Household Update

Bryce and I have made a decision-we are going to learn Spanish via Rosetta Stone and then plan a trip to Mexico/Latin America somewhere in a year or two when we can actually talk the talk. We have discussed a possible trip to SanDiego with a trip to Mexico leaving from there so we can scope out the area. Then I can eat lots of authentic foods and compare them to the dishes I have been making out of my Mexican cookbook!

On the Kadence front-Her adorable hair wrap disappeared the other day. We were at the show "Walking with Dinosaurs"(She loved it and it was pretty darn cool) and I looked over and said where is your hair wrap, and she started bawling when she realized it was gone! I assumed it slipped off of her super straight hair but when we got to the car it was just laying there with a tuft of red hair coming out of the top. After a quick inspection of her hair I realized she has a bald patch because it broke all of her hair right off. She has a new part in her hair today and a carefully placed barrette holding it there!

Saturday night after yet another fussy Charlie day, I put him in bed and he cried himself to sleep. He doesn't usually do that so I was feeling a little guilty, but it was only for like 10-15minutes. I went to check on him when I went to bed and hour and a half later only to find him sleeping in a big puke pile, which was probably why he had been crying. Talk about feeling like a crappy parent! After, talking with a few other mommies I am pleased to say this has happened to them to so I don't feel quite so bad now!

Priest Family-Where Art Thou?


Attention Nelson Family-has anyone heard from the Priest Family of Shephard Michigan? Their blog gets updated so infrequently that I am beginning to worry about them! Perhaps a few choice pictures posted on my blog will get them back into the swing of things?!
(Bryce, I can't believe you posted this! For the record I am against this entire post!...Susu)

More Pics!

Now that Charlie is a full time walkin man he went nuts in the play area at Disney!
We didn't realize how tired Charlie was until he fell asleep on the table at the T-Rex cafe! That is a waffle fry in his hand!

Kadence got a hair wrap-and Charlie got a new thing to try to pull!
