Happy Halloween!

We had a nice quiet Halloween... it was cold here so we decided to go to the mall to Trick-or-Treat. A local church sponsored a fun evening at the mall-- lots of people, candy and fun! Here are some pictures...

The cutest Pumpkin ever!


Trick-or-Treating at GG's (Great Grandma's) House... She gives the good candy!


Fun with Daddy...


Mommy & Daddy's littlest Pumpkin...


We hope you had a safe and fun evening! Enjoy the candy :)

A new house!

The Draper family has a new house!! We plan to move in this weekend.... Lord willing! We are so excited about all of the memories that will be made in our new home... God has so clearly opened doors for us to buy it and we feel so blessed. It's not too far from our current home, but has a room that will become the play room and a backyard with a big toy! Reagan is so excited about her new slide!



The exterior...



Here are some fun pictures from our adventures in painting at the new house...



Reagan and her friend Drew "painting" the play room... they don't need to know that there isn't any paint on their rollers do they?


Lindsey's dad sacrificing his body for the sake of the gas stove... what a guy!



It's a painting party!



This is the first pink color we chose for Reagan's huge room.... a little too much Pepto Bismol for us. Needless to say we immediately went and picked out another color!

an artist and a walk...

So we went to The Children's Museum of Tacoma last week... what a fun place! Reagan had such a great time. She got to experience some fun things and even got to paint on this huge canvas... she loved it! Hey, maybe she'll be artistic?!



That night we all got bundled up and went for a walk around the neighborhood... it was fun!

Some fun pictures...

Ian has 2 new play toys... his feet! He loves to grab his feet... even making it a challenge to change his diaper...













He also has a new hat...




Reagan has decided that Ian's Bumbo chair is the perfect place to chill while she watches her favorite show... Sesame Street!




This was such a precious moment... big sister making little brother laugh!

The Pumpkin Patch!

We went to the Pumpkin Patch tonight with Alicia, Keven, Asher & Tatum (Lindsey's sister and her family). We had a such a great time! The big kids loved running through the haystack maze and climbing all over the pumpkins. The babies enjoyed a ride in the stroller! Reagan picked out a really big pumpkin and quickly proclaimed "Daddy! It's too heavy!" Here are a few fun pictures...

The kids...

Here are some recent pictures of the kids... they're growing so fast! Reagan is 2 1/2 and Ian is 4 months old.




Reagan has a very fun personality... she's funny, sassy and incredibly loving. In fact, she just yelled from her room at the top of her lungs "I LOVE YOU MOMMY!" It doesn't get much better than that.
It is a kick to see Ian's personality develop already too... he laughs very easily and smiles a ton. He's a very big boy (off the charts in the height dept... although I'm not too much of a fan of the "charts"... but that's for another post I suppose). He's already trying to sit up on his own. Can't wait to see what kind of little man he'll be.
I look forward to sharing all the funny things they do!

How do we do this?

So we're new to the blogging world... I've been reading blogs for quite some time, but have never attempted my own. We'll see how this goes!
Please be patient as I figure all of this out...
Until next time... if there is one!
