So it has been a few days but I did get a couple new slide shows posted. The one directly below is the "Orange" bath the kids had after decorating their Halloween cookies the other night. For all of you that need a fun bath idea - we add food coloring to change the color of the kids baths. It is very fun for the kids but I would stay away from Yellow. Especially with a bunch of boys! And it doesn't color their skin. PROMISE! The slide show under the bath is the kids decorating the cookies.
Mays was much more interested in the frosting than anything else. I love this time of year with the holidays approaching. For any of you that knows me well we love Halloween. I finally got the 10 foot spider put up today and cannot wait for the kids to get home and see. We also have several scary monsters that make crazy noises. Anyway, anticipation of Halloween and then Thanksgiving and the Christmas. Cannot wait!!!
We are planning on heading to Arizona for Thanksgiving if the rest of the Madsens are on board.
We haven't seen much of Eric. The evening camp will finally be over next week. Hallelujah!! He leaves at 5 am and gets home around 11 Mon - Thur! Then usually is recruiting all weekend. We miss him. The kids miss him. I love November and December when he is a little slower and we get him for a few short months. Until the season arrives!
I have my first official doctors appt with my new Doctor tomorrow. Sad story - I had a woman OB with Mays whom was just awesome. I wasn't sure what I would think about a woman OB but when she said "I understand" I believed her. When I called to schedule an appt with her she is taking a leave of absence if you deliver after March. I guess I have all the luck the last few months. HAHA! So this will now be 4 different OBs for 6 kids! Excited about that so I can finally know exactly when I am due! Mick is playing in a Fall Extravaganza tourney this weekend so we are hanging around home! Hope you enjoy the pics!

Sorry about all the switching doc's I do know how you feel though...when you find one you really like and have to go to someone else. The kids are simply ADORABLE! And bath time looks really fun! Love the food coloring idea!
