Chomp!


He's normally all smiles and sweetness, but Sawyer has officially told Jack, "Enough is enough!" For 14 months Jack has been a wonderful brother, BUT he does have an amazing ability and drive to annoy his little brother. Well Sawyer has now let him know that the tides are turning...he actually bit back! Of course, we firmly told him "No biting!" but Scott and I both had little mental grins! :) Payback!

Trick-or-Treat



















We had a fabulous time on Halloween night with our Nashville family, the Barons. Jack and Cooper (aka T-Rex and Wolverine) have spent their four Halloweens together, and they loved running from door to door together again this year. Sawyer and Tucker (the bumble bee and dragon) took the night in and were quite the troopers as we trapsed around the neighborhood. We feel so lucky to have shared our time in Nashville with Amanda, Chris and their kiddos. Amanda is truly a sister to me....maybe they can follow us to the next place??? :)

Picasso or Ringo?




Jack is experimenting with all aspects of his creativity these days. He is obsessed with drawing faces and storms, and at the same time is drawn to instruments and singing. He really can wail away on the drums! I feel like our life is one great big song! Thankfully, he loves Christmas carols just like his Mommy and we've officially started singing them in our house...and in our car....and in the bath...and at the playground...poor Daddy!

Happy Halloween!


A couple of parents, who will remain nameless, were slackers and forgot to charge their camera for tonight's festivities. Luckily, the Barons are responsible parents so we'll mooch off of them and post actual Halloween pictures later. Here are a couple shots of our boys as they prepare for the holiday.

Trick-or-treating was a hit tonight! Jack and Cooper ran from house to house (and both tripped and fell on their costumes about 100 times), and Sawyer and Tucker raked in the candy with their cuteness. Both boys are sound asleep and now Mommy and Daddy are preparing to raid the pumpkins for the best candy. Pays to be the parents! :)

Monster Madness!

16 kids under the age of 4, sugar highs from candy and cookies = CHAOS and FUN!!!!

Good times with Gramps

The Egan family enjoyed a visit from Gramps (my Dad) last weekend! Jack was so excited to see him and loved his vampire impressions. Sawyer was a little shy at first, but quickly warmed up and enjoyed being entertained and cuddled by Gramps. Our Superheroes soccer team loved his presence, too....the first couple games we scored multiple goals! We miss Gramps already and look forward to seeing him again at Christmas!

Mom's Night Out

I have been so blessed to connect with such amazing women here in Nashville. These are some of the hot mommas who have surrounded and supported my boys and I for the last several years. The moms enjoyed a fun night out at Sips N Strokes (forgive the name!) on Sunday. Wine, painting and laughter made it a perfect evening and a wonderful way to celebrate Amy's upcoming little #3.
