Having Fun in KC

We visited Union Station and saw lots of train setups! We went next door to Crown Center and played at the Crayola place as well as saw Santa and ate at Fritz's! It was a quick trip but a fun one!

Halloween-our little Spooks :)

Our first trick or treat at Carolyns! She gave them the sweetest treat bags.

Vogel Update

Well, we are hanging in there this Fall. It's cold ALL THE TIME but we are managing to still find things to do and stay healthy (knocking on wood as we speak!)

We had Clares first parent/teacher conference. It was interesting because I am in there so much and I am always curious how she is when I am not in there. She seems to be doing well/excelling at most if not all of the "basic" stuff! She is beginning some sight reading stuff so that has been exciting teaching her stuff at home!

Will has been doing tball and is doing really well. He is actually listening and is enjoying it! It's cute as can be to watch him, he's always looking over and giving me a big thumbs up! He's had a pretty nasty cough for the past week but isn't running a fever so he hasn't been his normal onrey self! But, I am sure we will kick it this week and be back in full swing!

Xavier still only really has 3 teeth. He is starting to say some words....no and more mostly but with two older siblings, that's about all he can get out! He is practically running and is into EVERYTHING (I don't remember the other two being as bad!) So, he keeps me on my toes!

He managed to drop a baking stone on his big toe the other day so I anticipate him loosing it soon. He has a large gash on his head that is now healing from when he him it on the chair in the living room, and the list goes on! You are probably thinking, who watches this kid??? Well, I swear I do but if I tell him no about something or divert his attention, he's into something else! He's just "that kid!"

Well, enjoy the pics. I was able to get Clare and Xaviers pics at the pumpkin farm but only got the back of Will on several occasions so I opted not to post that pic! The other is of the kids dancing! I don't know why it's so dark but it's pretty funny! Then, there's my prince

charming at tball ;) Enjoy!

Swim Lessons

Swim lessons are going well. Xavier loves it, talks the entire time! He kicks and splashes, he's a fish! Will is doing very well. He does everything assisted but is really catching on and is comfortable in the water! Clare is swimming "to the flags" which is about 1/4 the length of the pool. She does very well both on her back and stomach and swims mainly unassisted! It is really awesome to watch--I am so excited for her to be on swimteam! Enjoy the photos!
