Family fun!!

The Feaster's had a great time this weekend! Saturday, the Mitcheltree's came over for a fall barbecue, and then on Sunday, we went to a metropark in Lake County that had animals, pony rides, etc! It was great!


 First sight of the horsies!!









Two sleepy babies on the way home!!

Gabbie is 2 1/2 years old!!

It's hard to believe that Gabrielle hit TWO and a HALF this week! Amazing! It seems like yesterday we were holding our tiny little (almost!) 6 pound baby! Remember when we didn't even know if she was a girl or a boy?! Now this child makes us smile, laugh and be simply amazed at how smart, loving and outgoing she is! She's grown into such a beautiful little girl and we're enjoying every minute of her (even the tantrums!)

As for the Mason man, he's becoming quite the ham (just like his sister!). He loves to dance (his favorite move is going in circles, which is apparently because he does the 'hokey pokey' a lot w/ his teacher at the gym! It's hilarious!) And him and Gabbie love chasing each other around the house! He's still not much of a talker, but he's getting better w/ his signs, which is good!

Here's a few pictures from this week!

 Mason is showing you his "muscles" :)
 Gabbie wanted to eat lunch in the highchair! Then she heard some geese outside, so she told me to "listen"!

 Going for a walk on a beautiful day!
 Mason loves his car!
 Happy 2.5 birthday Gabrielle Marie!

 Dance party time @ the Feaster's! (Do you like Mason's drool? He leaks!)
 He's on the move!
 Oh man, someone got put in timeout for pushing their brother :P
Caught! He's a speedy little devil!!

Toledo Zoo!!

Hello everyone! Last week, the kids and I headed home to MI while Dada was busy in Texas! We had the best time going to the Toledo Zoo w/ Grandma and Grandpa, and cousin LeAnn and Penelope!! Gabrielle was just in awe of all the animals! She was such an angel that day too--not one single meltdown (from either Feaster child!!)
 The Sloth Bears were a big hit! They were interacting w/ us right up against the glass!
 The Mason man loved it too (especially when we let him out of his stroller to run wild at the park w/ Grandpa!)

 Isn't this way better than being at work, Pa? :)
 Our little cheeser!!
 Penelope and Mace were getting a little sleepy by the end of our adventure!

Labor Day!

My apologies; i'm way behind on updating! "Mason can walk" seems like ages ago! He's practically a sprinter now (go ahead and say it Matt...what did we expect? lol!)

We've had some great times since my last update though...Marc & Sarah's wedding was fantastic! It was so nice spending time w/ the entire family! The kids and I loved our shopping day w/ Aunt Lisa, our bonfire that night at UB's, and of course the actual wedding/reception itself!

This past weekend, Labor Day, the Feaster family headed to Chicago! It was so nice to see baby Landon again (who, by the way, is ridiculously cute! I kept calling him beautiful, but Matt told me I wasn't allowed to; 'handsome' just didn't seem big enough though? He's beautiful!!) Gabrielle and Mason travelled great, and absolutely loved going into the city! We had the best time and can't wait to see them again!
