Jake's school halloween parade--he was in heaven--so excited to be Darth Maul.
Darth Maul and Anakin (one of his best friends, Brigg)
Sammy the lion. He LOVED this costume! He loved chasing his tail, too. So cute!

So I've already posted most of these pictures from our UT trip on Facebook. If you've seen them there , you may want to skip this blog. I'm waaaaay behind, but I've got to start picking it up somewhere so here goes:
Sibling get-together at Andy and Staci's house. Anna, Elsa, Buzz, Heidi, and Kammi. Kierstin was with us but missed the photo shoot.
Smooches from Aunt Anna!
Matt near the top of Ben Lomond. The crazy boys hiked to the top and then ran much of the way back down. 
Bruthuhs.
Snugglie bugglie wugglie with aunt shanny.
Sammy sipping soda.
Here's my belly at about 30 wks.
And here are Clay and Bonnie just coming out of the temple.
On the trail up Ben Lomond. Tom and Blair rode some ridiculous amount of miles up a mountain and back. They got muddy and had a great time. I know Blair misses this kind of riding since there aren't too many mountains here in Pennsylvania.
Blair and Tom overlooking Ogden (I think.)
We got to spend some time with Gma and Gpa Low.
And we stopped in to see Gma Spencer after her hip replacement
All the kids: Uncle Christmas and Aunt Shanny, Elsa, Blair, Uncle Matt, Uncle Clay, Aunt Bonnie, Grandma Jeanne, and Grandpa Scott.
The boys got to go for lawn mower rides with grandpa--they loved it!
We went as a family to a farm in Jersey. The boys got to pick their own pumpkins and apples! The apples were delicious!
For Alyssa and other inquiring minds who live far, far away from me: here's a belly pic from about 2 weeks ago, so at about 23 weeks. Sammy looks so dang cute, I might add.
The Toothless Wonder's first day of school (Sean wishes it were his first, too.)
Jake lost all 4 of his front teeth--so here's a pic for grandma Connie, who's been begging to see him!
We had a rather adventurous start to the month with our little Sammy. He got an infection that landed him in the hospital and then in surgery. He was a trooper and we're all home, safe and sound now. This picture was before his surgery--he had to be NPO since 12 am and it was now about 2 pm so this kid was STARVING!!! Daddy and the boys came to visit and Sam was so glad to see them!
Here he is after his surgery--finally getting some food!
This made me laugh...there are a lot more years ahead of this scenario, I'm sure. All three of them like "playing" xbox lately. And as long as their controls aren't plugged in, Jake's fine with his younger brothers' participation. 
Tom & Layne, Blair's friends from his hometown, came to visit and they took a boy's trip to NYC. They apparently had a great time. 
Lady Liberty tour. 
Aunt Shannon came to visit and we had such a great time with her! Here we are at the community pool. She was with us for a week--how lucky can we get?
Jake and Faust
Sam and Ronnie (but Sean calls her, "Carina," for reasons known only to him).
