Yummy baby with a cute little tongue...
Yummier baby on her tippy toes with those little baby leggies....this is my last baby. So if there's anyone that doesn't know this about me, you will now: I think that baby toes smell great. Intoxicating. Especially if they've been in little shoes and are kind of sweaty. Just writing this is gross, but it's true. Especially when Travis was a baby. I'd pull his socks off and sniff 'em like some kind of addict; I just couldn't get enough baby.
Mmmmmmm..... more baby.......
This is a very cool picture she took of us watching the train go by. It'd be even cooler if we were cool, city people instead of suburbanites.... and if Travis looked like he had 2 legs instead of one. 
Eva and Marie: Funny Eva story...So, the directions on the paper said: "Add words to make this sentence longer and better. IT WAS ABOUT TIME FOR THE SHOW TO START. THEN____________." She needed to fill in the line. Here's what she wrote: "Then, It sprouted wings and flew far far far far far far far far far away till it starded on fire! ha, ha, he, he, ho, ho, ho."
Travis and Luke
Pretending we ARE cool city people that are in downtown Fargo all the time. (Once a year, usually at the Holiday Lights Parade.)
Look at Travis.... not happy about wearing a coat under the Police Man costume that the neighbor borrowed him. He did later admit that he was wrong and that it would've been way too cold without it.
Tough to tell which one is Eva and which one is Marie.... I'd look at Marie and it was just like dejavu.
Spiderman Luke ran to every house to say trick-or-treat and never forgot a thank you. He went to the scary houses for Travis.
Found this funny picture of Luke in my brother's, dog's kennel with Toni. We really should've just kept that at the lake this summer and I may have been able to relax.
Why isn't Eva in the earlier pictures? Because she did not want to trick-or-treat with us slow people. Liv and her went with the cool neighbor girl, Allison, instead and sprinted to 2 streets worth of houses to our one street.
If you look in the above picture off to your right, you'll see what Chris was doing during getting all these people ready to go trick-or-treating. Kids are knocking on the door, everyone's outside, trying to take pictures, Marie wants to go so getting the stroller, etc, etc. I asked him "Could you change Marie's diaper so she doesn't get too cold while WE (not him) are out?" He points to the TV and says "Erika. You are not serious. Do you see what's going on here?" Ummmmm, yes. The Vikings are playing and I'm pretty sure they are not going to put YOU in for Brett Favre? He did offer to take the kids trick-or-treating after the game ended and I was ready to walk away. I told him "no thanks" because he'd be all crabby and left him to clean up the mess instead. AND, I'll get him back with this HILARIOUS picture. hee, hee, ho, ho. Nice hair. Eva was almost 2 and was bringing him things; a purse, a puzzle, a popcorn popper, etc. I just think it's so funny, as he has the look of "this is what my life is now?" on his face. Oh no honey, it gets much lamer than this!
Officer Travis says "Why do you take so many pictures of the little kids?" Well, because you look this cute in taking one photo and I have to take 20 of them to get one where they are not running away.
Another thing that happened since I last posted on here was that I went on girls weekend to Florida with Sue Evens and Karen Kanthack (who is Kevin Hoffman's sister, for those of you who know him.) It was so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so great (as Eva would make a sentence longer.) One of Eva's friends says "you are so much taller than them in this picture?" And in every picture of my life since I could stand next to friends. Thanks for rubbing salt in my 34 year old wounds little girl. Hee, hee.
Annie, from the Little Einstein's, accompanied us on the trip to Florida. She was checking out what was so important about these glasses because it seemed to solve all the world's problems for us!
