The Bumbo Chair

We got the Bumbo Chair for a gift when Kreighton was born and all 3 kids have used it!

Christmas Tree

We got our tree up, we were going to go and cut a tree down, but it was far too cold so we just went in the basement and got our fake one!  The kids had so much fun decorating the tree!  Kreighton loved looking at all the decorations....for some strange reason she remembered the one of a picture of our old dog Frank who died when she was only 2!  And Kyle's favorite ornament was Fred's red truck from when he was a little boy!  And I am sure next year Kael will be much more "help"

Go Hawks!

It has been a tradition with the Moroney Family to go to an Iowa Game every year.  It started with going to an away game, which we did for the 1st few years, then as everyone got busy we decided to just start going to a game in Iowa City, but this year we changed it up and stayed in condos in Riverside and watched the Hawks.  Even though they lost it was a great kid free (besides Kael) Friday!

Kreighton and Kyle stayed with Glen and Marilyn and had a blast getting to play all day and go to McDonalds and play their for hours!  And Kael did great and hammed it up for everyone!

Thanksgiving

Thursday we went to the Monti Hall with the Baragarys which is perfect...the kids loved playing with cousins and running around!

I always asked my mom how it was when we were younger and there was so many kids around and Mom always told me how they would just grab a kid and help then get their meal or whatever they needed...after Thursday I understood why they did that...we all basically did the same thing!  After we stuffed ourselves there we came home and took a much needed nap!  Then off to Glen and Marilyn's for our annual Thanksgiving Pizza and pumpkin pie!  Kreighton took one look at the pumpkin pie and then very confused looked at Grandma Marilyn and asked "why did you use cat food to make this pie?"  She does have a point...pumpkin pie does kind of look like cat food!  It was a perfect day filled with lots of food and family!

Kael was a hit!

A Tuesday night Change Up!

After a busy day of going to the Aurora Comet Center, taking early naps, getting woke up from early naps, going to the Indee Library to do Thanksgiving Crafts, stopping by the park to play for a while, attempting to potty-train Kyle, being bath night, and Fred not being home tonight I decided to make it easiest on ME!  I gave the kids an early bath at 4 when Kael went down for a nap and told them to put thier jammies on...they were confused since we hadn't even ate supper!  I made popcorn (a snack right before supper) and let them watch Snow White!  And then I even brought them thier supper in the living room and let them eat in there....they thought it was awesome and it saved me having to set the table!  It was a fun night and I think the kids thought I was losing it! Kreighton said "Mommy are we always going to eat in the living room?" 

I even let them eat chocolate popcicles!

Poor Kael...he just had to hang out!

Art Projects

Now that the cold weather has started to set it we have been stuck inside :( BUT the kids love it when I come up with "art projects" for them,  it keeps them busy for a while and I think it is funny to see what they come up with!

Here they are decorating boxes!

Kreighton decorated hers for Ella...she was even able to write her name!

What Kyle has been up to?

Well we decided to tackle potty training with Kyle, my plan was to have a "potty party" but when I was telling Kyle about it, and that he would get to pick out a tractor if he went potty on the big potty he ran into the bathroom and went...I of course had no tractors on hand and had a very sad/mad little boy! But he has been doing great, we still have some accidents but for the most part he does great!

The problem is...he is too skinny and the diapers kept his pants up! 

Look how cute he looks in his big boy undies!
