Our First Snow Storm!!!

Who would have thought that on October 11, we would have a huge snow storm. A storm that was only supposed to give us 1-2 inches has already yielded 5-7, and it is still coming!!!

The kids were so excited to wake up and have snow on the ground that they couldn't wait to play in it. The same with the neighbor kids.

The kids wanted to make a snow man, then realized it would take more than just them, so they decided to have a snowball fight and make snow angels instead.

I can not believe that it is October and we are already having a snow storm. Ya gotta love Idaho. Luckily by Wednesday it will be in the 60's again, but not for long. Poor Danno is refing a foot ball game out in this mess. My poor baby!

Meet Baeli Madison Ringle!!!

On October 8th 2008 our family welcomed Baeli Madison Ringle. She was 6 lbs 7 ozs and 18 in long. She was welcomed by her parents Dan and Erin, her brother Kaleb, and sisters Mikaeli and Kaerli.

October is a VERY busy month for us. Kaleb's birthday is October 7th, Baeli was born on the 8th, Dan's birthday is on the 18th and Mikaeli's birthday is on the 19th. Much business this month.

All three of the kids were so excited to hear the news that they received a new little sister.

Mikaeli came into my room after school beaming. Mom picked her up from school and told her the news that Baeli was born. She held Baeli for over an hour just singing to her, and telling her that she was so happy to FINALLY meet her. She kept telling Baeli that she would protect her and keep her safe. It was very sweet.


Kaleb was so excited when he was picked up from school and brought to my hospital room. He held Baeli, hugged her, and kissed her. Then he asked her why she didn't come the day before on his birthday. He has been such a big help with taking care of Baeli.

Kaerli was the first of my children to meet Baeli. She came in with my mom, and was so happy to get to hold Baeli. She keeps asking me if the baby is still in my tummy, she doesn't understand that the baby that sleeps in Mommy's room is the baby that was in my tummy. She is such a sweet little girl. All of the kids love her.

Kaleb's Birthday!!

I can't believe it. My little boy is now 4 years old.

Kaleb woke up the morning of his birthday (October 7th) and said to me, Mommy why isn't the baby out? I told him that I guessed she just wasn't ready to come. So he said to me: Mommy can I have the baby for my birthday present? I sat down and sat him on my lap and asked him if he wanted to share his birthday with the baby. He told me yes. I asked him if he wanted anything else for his birthday, and he said no. It was so sweet.

For his birthday we went to Pizza Hut. He had so much fun. Megan, Kevin and the boys were there, as well as my mom.

For his birthday he got a lot of school clothes, he got several puzzles, and he also got a bike. He was so excited.

Mikaeli's Fall Mini Cheer Camp!!

Mikaeli had so much fun yesterday. She got to be a cheerleader again!!! HURRAY!!! Last year she cheered for Burley Bobcats Basketball, yesterday she cheered at the Burley/Woodriver Football game. (Burley won 20-6) She had the biggest smile on her face. This is such a good picture of Mikaeli. I took this right after she sat back down from cheering. Such a cutie. Ok here is proof that Dan ref's football.. I know, it is a little dark, but he is standing next to 55.. Dan did a really good job at the game. Every time Mikaeli saw Dan running along the field (sorry I didn't get a video of it, he was always too far away) Mikaeli would yell "YEAH DADDY!!! GOOD CALL DADDY!!! She was so proud of him.
