More Cousins

Today we went and visited Frank's youngest brother Jay and family. A fun filled day with all of them and a very hungry Henry... I mean he just ate and ate and ate *lol*

We went to a light up farm... it was great

Zoe's comment to this cow: 'What a mess'

Jay and Jamie Leigh

A family picture ;)

Alex, Christina, Jamie Leigh and our kids

It was just amazing... thanks for a great day. We had a lot of fun with y'all

Grandma and Grandpa

We're enjoying some family time with family ;). The kids are ready to get dizzy on the office chair :)

We went to the aquarium and on the way there we ran into some pageants:

Uncle Ray

The Dolphin Show, unfortunately the battery of the camera went dead :(... was so sad but on the other hand it was so crowded that I didn't really got to see that many things. It was a big money making thing! Don't recommend it to anybody. Crazy expensive and no strollers allowed inside. Wish I would've seen that big warning on their webside but no... I thought of course it'll be kids friendly. First and last time... too sad... well, at least Zoe and Henry were free.

Jake, Grandma, Katie and Henry... Zoe just ran out of the picture

Henry loves his new gift from Aunt Patty and Uncle Ray... he couldn't get enough of his little motorcyle

Uncle Ray and Katie:

Uncle Ray and little Henry:

It's funny but Ray always called Henry: Michael! I told him not to worry because my dad would LOVE to hear that ;)... so funny... never heard anybody do this and everybody said he looks just like the father, not his father but my father :)... Yeah, a little German Michael Ruhe ;)

First Hair Cut

Puh, I finally got it figured out!!! Thanks so much D & D for your input. I didn't even know about this picasa album and I deleted a few pics out of it. Luckily nothing on the blog disappeared so I can easily continue blogging without having to do anything different! Very happy about that.

Back to Business :).

Finally I can post the pics of Henry's first hair cut. I had a friend coming over to cut the kids hair and also mine. So it's actually Zoe's first professional haircut as well :). Not just one from mom ;)... Henry right away looked like a little boy :(. He was so good and Zoe too...

The hair was itching his nose :)... hihi

Brave Zoe.... paci had to join :(

After the procedure. Zoe got a piece of chocolate as promised.

Look at all her curls :)... tooooo cute

HELP

I need some help from you all... I get this error message since yesterday when I want to upload pics or videos to my blog :(... has anybody every experienced this? I'm not willing to 'buy' more space, then I'd have to create a new blog instead but I'd love to just keep it all on this blog.

Let me know if anybody can help.

thx

We Rock It

We Rock It Baby!!! Look at our little musicians :)

Henry!

Ok, we have two very independent kids it seems! Henry started to want to feed himself... he's screaming and kicking if he doesn't have a fork or spoon in his hand during feeding time and if you wanna feed him... you better do it so he won't notice *lol*. He's so proud of himself...

All this walking and being a big boy can be very exhausting... he didn't make it to bed time and crashed before on the couch... too cute

The twins are getting solids now... they'll be 6 months old on the 22nd!!! Have been breastfed since they're born and no supplements... big thumbs up for Silke who's doing an amazing job:

Henry is checking out the girls:

Crazy Saturday

Here some pics from FR our Play Date in the Neighborhood. Lizzie, Zoe and Henry:

In Jen's Basement. I'd love to finish our basement as well, it's an awesome big space and a great play ground for the kids and perfect for entertainment

Grace in the middle as well:

Very popular play thing... the marble slide but with big balls instead (choke friendly).

Henry and Grace:

I successfully kept sweets away from the kids for two years at least but slowly they've discovered these goodies as well :(... Zoe is enjoying her cupcake

Mr. Henry... now we can't feed him anymore, he wants to feed himself :(... always a drama if he's not having at least a spoon in his hand while having food. Smiling for the camera

Yum:

Saturday I've been going since the time I got up... well it's the case everyday but we put up Christmas Lights in the Entrance of our subdivision... 5 hrs it took us all to get it all up. I was the first and last one there...

... then quickly shopping with the kids and preparing dinner for our play date with the neighbor families.

It was a great time but man was I glad when the kids were in bed, the kitchen cleaned up and I could go to bed :).
This morning I stuffed our Turkey and it's in the oven right now hopefully ready for dinner. Kind of went with a 20lbs Turkey (9Kgs)... a little big! By the time Thanksgiving comes along we can't stand Turkey anymore *lol*... well I'm glad we're having our own little Thanksgiving Dinner today since we'll be traveling on Thanksgiving, hoping for free roads :). That's how you do it... switch holidays around and make it easier for you to get around :)
