Halloween 2009

The Luna kids had a great time this Halloween. It was so nice that it fell on a Saturday. We didn't have to rush quite so much. Kaetlyn went as Alice in Wonderland, Kaeli as Pochahantis, Caden as Captain Hook and Caleb as Peter Pan. The twins were sooo adorable!

Caden and Caleb are 2!

The boys turned 2 last Sunday and it was a great day! We had a very nice party at our house with friends and family. Of course the house looked like a giant toy store since we had to have 2 of everything! The boys had a great time in their new jeeps. They were out cruising the neighborhood for chicks! They were scared of the candles on the cake!

OTTERRIFFIC!

Today the Otters took on Kings Manor Kingfish. Kaetlyn did an awesome job! She took 1st place in freestyle and butterfly and got 2nd in backstroke. (She had an admirer to impress!) Anyway, we had a great but HOT day. The whole family went... Kaeli, the boys, Mimi, PaPaw, Chris and myself to watch the fun.... The boys on popsicles..what a mess! Kaeli wet from the showers. Our little otter. Back home after the meet in the pool.

Go Otters!!

For those of you who do not know...Kaetlyn is now a Village Otter. This is her first year on swim team and she is making a splash! She did very well at her first meet last saturday. She took first place in her heat on the butterfly. She is so fast!

Swim Teamin'

Kaetlyn joined the Village Otter's swimteam this year. We are very excited to see her compete. She's actually turned into a very good one, just like a little fish! They had a kick off the season party last night at the Kingwood Country Club. We had a blast! The girls on the lazy river. Kaeli and Momma on the lazy river. The water monkeys!

Caden's Broken Arm

Today my baby boy Caden broke his arm. He was just walking and fell down on his arms. He wouldn't stop crying so I took him in to see the doctor. The doctor had to send us to the orthopedic doctor to be sure, but it is broken! It was a horrible day with everyone pulling and twisting on it, but now he seems to be alot better. Its stable and his moving around pretty good, just can't do any climbing or pulling up. Here's him sporting his new cast!

Christmas Holidays

The Luna crew had a great Christmas holiday. Nanny flew in from Kentucky to spend the week with us. We opened presents on Christmas Eve as usual and got up Christmas morning to see what Santa had brought. My living room looked like an isle in Toys R Us. We has so much stuff! But then again, we do have 4 kids and of course they are all spoiled rotten. All in all it was a great week and it was good to get back on our routine. The babies were worn out and so was momma! Here's a few of our pictures to enjoy.......

Trick or Treat

Halloween was alot of fun this year, we had a cheetah, a 50s girl, and 2 wild cowboys! They were all so cute! Chris and I took them all around the block for some trick or treating. Of course, the boys only lasted a little while, so we headed back to pass out candy while Chris took the girls out for another round. There was so much candy we didn't know what to do.......

NORAH'S 2ND BIRTHDAY!

A week ago Sunday, was little Norah's 2nd birthday. The bad news was that "ike" had to come into town and ruin it! Chris and I had a little party for her over at our house, by candle light of course, since no one in the whole city had power! Ugh!

Anyway, we searched for a birthday cake but had no luck, so we all sang "happy birthday" to an icecream sandwhich with candles. (i don't think she minded too much...she loved the ice cream!) We opened up presents and she played with her new baby stroller all night. She kept wanting to get in it and her sissy push her around. She is such a cutie!HAPPY BIRTHDAY NORAH!!!!

IKE'S FURY

After a long uncomfortable week, we can finally say that we survived "ike". Our power came back on yesterday after a long week of open windows and no stove. But we did alright. Chris got out there and battled the storm the first day to get the generator up and running. He also had to get up in the wee hours to refill the tank and keep us as comfortable as we could be. Thank goodness for that generator. Otherwise we might have lost our minds.

We turned in to "kingwood trash" as some of our friends say, as we strung a home made clothes line in the back so I could dry our clothes and added a window unit to cool off at night. But man did it work!

After the storm passed, we can say that we were lucky. The only damage that we had was an up rooted tree in the front yard. But the rest of the neighborhood looked like a bomb went off. There are still trees down every where, and limbs and branches covering the streets. Parts of the area are still without power! We consider our selves lucky. The sounds of the wind when it came through were horrible.

But we made it!

PREPARING 4 IKE

Today we got all the last minute preparations for "IKE"s big debut. He's rolling into Galveston as I type and its already not pretty. But we are hunkering down or "honkering" down as I say and ready for him. Chris bought us a generator so we will have power when ours go out, which is inevitiable. Anyways, we boarded the windows the best we could since there was no lumber ANYWHERE and I stocked up on water and food. Those sustained winds are going to be killer, but we are all piled in our room and ready for whatever Ike brings..... The boys had a field day with the upside down tramp.

NEW HAIR CUTS

Chris gave the boys a new "do" last night. We had cut their hair a few weeks ago but this last night we went ahead a cut it really short and gave them a fade. THEY ARE SOOOO CUTE! They are starting to look more like little boys and less like little babies! CADEN CALEB

A day well spent at the Houston Zoo

Chris was off today and since we are zoo members, we decided to take advantage of our passes and take the babies out there. This is the 1st time they have been since they were younger. Caden loved it and pointed at everything, while Caleb was scared of alot of the animals. He didn't care too much for any of the bigger animals, but he did like the little monkeys. We took a ride on the carousel and then let them play in the water at the children's zoo. It was a nice day.
