Day 287...


The Purifoy-Foster bunch went out tonight to the PlayStation.  It was the last outing before Cole has the baby.  Isaac is so silly and Dietrich, the little blond head behind him, really was like Isaac's shadow tonight.  Timothy had a lot of fun playing with all of the kids.

Day 286...


Savannah decided to go down the slide tonight while Timothy was standing at the bottom.  So of course there was a collision and Savannah came out worse for it.  This was taken maybe 3 or 4 minutes after it happened.  Her eye got really poofy and swollen really quickly, but thankfully by morning it was just black and blue.  This child certainly knows how to injury herself.

Day 285...


This is a spider wrapping up a bug in my window.  I keep telling Jessie that he has to fix that screen, there is a hole in it, maybe now he'll listen.

Day 284...


So Evelyn was taking a bath and Timothy decided that he neede one as well.  He did forget to take his clothes off first.  He is so cute!

Day 283...


We went to the apple orchard today and picked apples.  It was a lot of fun and a lot different than I imagined it to be.  The long pole Jessie is holding has a basket at the top of it to catch the apples that you dislodge up high.  We also got pumpkins, went on a hay ride and the kids got to see bees making honey.  It was a good trip and I definitely think we will do it again.

Day 282...

Time to put up Halloween decorations!

Dietrich stuffed his dirty clothes under his shirt and said, " I look like dad!"

Day 280...


Evelyn and Dietrich were making a book together.

Day 279...


Timothy had another doctor's appoinment in Iowa City today.  He had a lot of fun playing with the toys while we were waiting.  Good news is that we scheduled his next surgery.  With the dates we have, Timothy will be able to hear out of both ears before Christmas!

Day 278...


Savannah wanted to put her coat on by herself. 

Day 277...


Our kitty has become a fan of the outside.

Day 276...


So right after we fixed the front brakes on my van, Jessie's truck decided it need to have the brakes done too.  We took it in, fixed the back brakes and then found out it needed another $1000 or more to fix it.  Not cool, especially since we had only spent $2000 on it and had already put another $1300 into it.  So it was time to go car shopping.  This is the car Jessie decided he wanted.  A 2007 KIA Rio.  It is a manual, which Jessie loves, and has power nothings, which he hates, but it was in our price range and it still has the manufacturer's warranty on it.  WOO HOO!!!

Day 275...


The ornage goo on Timothy is the drool from eating a marshmallow pumpkin.  He really liked it.

Day 274...

Day 264...


Timothy was running a fever for the third day in a row, so of to the doctor's we went.  Everyone had fun playing and Timothy really loved playing with my keys and his cochlear implant.

Day 263...


The kids all playing well together, doesn't happen often but when it does, I love it!

Day 262...


So it didn't show up well in the picture, but the little white spec is a leaf caught on a single strand of a spider web.  I just enjoyed the unexpected beauty of it and wanted to share it.  There is beauty in the most unlikely places.
