Peter Pan and Tinkerbell

Two months ago Silas told me that he was going to be Peter Pan for Halloween, I was to be Tinkerbell, and Dad was to be Captain Hook. LOL I love the ideas that this kid comes up with. I explained to Silas that Samara would make a better Tinkerbell than me. I decided I better find a Peter Pan costume, its not like I can go pick one up at Target. I found a blog called "Make it and Love it". She had a very Easy tutorial for this Peter Pan costume. I never sew, and I thought it was really easy. This picture below I have to say is one of the happiest moments in my life. I love love love my two kiddos, I Love how much Silas adores his sister, and I loved looking at them dressed up.

I Love how Samara is looking at Silas here

 I asked Silas to hold Samara's head up here, she doesn't look to happy about it.
Peter Pan!! I love that he even has the Stance down.

Tinker Bell.

Not sure how I ended up with an amazing husband, and two amazing kids. I am so lucky that I get to have these experiences. I almost started crying just seeing the two of them dressed up..............5 years ago I had started to believe that I would always be an aunt and never a mother.

Who wants to see a cute baby?

Samara is 3 weeks old now! I thought this was a cute picture of her sleeping


Ethan's coworkers threw a baby shower for us, and I didn't get any pictures :( But this is us leaving to go to the baby shower. I put Samara in a dress so she could be extra cute.
(Thanks for the awesome shower guys!!! You were so thoughtful to get Silas and Samara gifts)

Just some more pictures of my cute baby!



Love her face here

Silas is 4!

Silas was spoiled for his Birthday!


He had a visit from Christine (his Birth Grandma) and got a box full of Boise State stuff! Silas loves his new Jersey and wanted to wear it everyday, he even gave his Spiderman costume the shelf.

Don't worry he still loves Spiderman and put it back on for his Birthday party. We had a Costume party for Silas on Friday. Silas had a very specific group of friends that he wanted there. What can I say the kid knows what he wants

This is his new Spiderman bike from Ethan and I
Silas and his friends
For games the kids played limbo, duck duck goose, and red light green light. We also did a Birthday parade complete with hand clappers and shakers. The kiddos loved the parade!


Silas had been wanting a skate board for 2 years! So we finally gave in, Grandma and Grandpa Beach found him a Spiderman skate board. I think Silas was a little disappointed at how hard it is to ride, but I am sure he will have the hang of it in no time.
Silas' birthday was on Sunday. Ethan and I decided to decorate his room while he was sleeping.

This is his bedroom door.

Soccer

Silas started Soccer! I am not sure when Silas stared smiling for pictures (instead of his usual action pose) but I am loving these sweet pictures.

This is Silas with his team (team brown)

I gave Ethan the camera (I was feeding Samara) and told him to take lots of pictures. He got some good action shots, don't you think?

Silas spent 50% of time off the field getting a drink. Silly kid! We kept telling him "your team needs you" he didn't care.

When he was on the field he was doing great! We have games every Saturday, we missed this last one because Silas did not want to go. I am not sure this soccer thing is for Silas.
