Doctor Stats...

We took our annual trip to the doctor 
for the kids yearly check-ups last week.  

The kids are healthy!

Stats for Cohen...
43 lbs. (65%)
43 inches (58%)

Stats for Brynlee...
25 lbs. (26%)
34 1/2 inches (69%)
Head: 48 1/2 cm (75%)

Both kiddos had to get shots.
Cohen was pumped about getting shots
until it actually happened.
After the shots,
he realized how NOT fun they really are.
We had one sad boy. :(
Brynlee cried for a few seconds
and was then okay again.

Here is a picture before shots.
Both were happy and ready for their check-ups.

No after pictures.
They were not happy!
Haha!

Trick or Treat!

Happy Halloween!
Brynlee and Cohen had a lovely Halloween.
We had the perfect night for trick-or-treating!
The kids were able to wear the costumes without
having to bundle up at all!
Cohen was a ninja and Brynlee was a little owl.  
We met at Grandpa Roger and Grandma Julie's for supper
and pictures before we headed out for the evening.
We got a special treating having 
Grandpa Dean and Grandma Jackie come up to visit for the night!
Cohen got to trick or treat with Jack which was a treat in itself!
And Brynlee, my mom and dad, and myself 
went to a few houses around auntie Jesse's block.  

Here are a few pictures from the evening.


 My ninja!  
Right up his alley!
 My cute little owl!
 Grandpa Roger and Grandma Julie

It was a lovely Halloween!
The kiddos had a blast!
