I don't know how many of you that read our blog know so I wanted to let everyone know. I sell life insurance! I would love to give you a free quote. Email me at jennifergerritsen@msn.com. Be sure to include your birth date.
I know personally the importance of having life insurance and it is really an important thing to have. In this world of uncertainty, having life insurance can help you and your family have just a little peace of mind if something happens to you or your loved ones.

Mom I'm bored!

Ben's mom got this great book from Usborne books with 50 ideas you can do at home that are like science experiments. Jeremy wanted to do the one making gloop. You get 2 cups of cornstarch with one cup of water. It was quite the hit because one minute it's wet, the next hard.

Halloween!

For Halloween, we did some fun activities. We attended a carnival for our ward and it was a lot of fun.











































We also carved pumpkins.




















Jeremy also got to have a parade at school. All the kids went around the school in their costumes.











Here he is with some soccer friends










Here he is with his principal and his teacher























We then went to the Treehouse to their Enchanted Woods. The boys dressed in their costumes and were told stories by different characters from books.































Alex loves to play with the knights and the castle.













Finally, we went trick or treating.

Jeremy's 6th birthday

For Jeremy's birthday, he wanted a Ben 10 party. So we invited a bunch of friends and did everything Ben 1o. We played musical Ben 10 chairs and decorated cookies to look like Ben 10 omnitrex's. I made him a soccer ball cake because he loves soccer (he finished his second season of soccer a few weeks ago and did great!) On his actual birthday, we blessed Isaac so all of our family sang to him. He said it was his best birthday (he has been saying that every year!)

Jeremy's activities!

Jeremy has had some fun times these past couple of months, especially having his birthday ( I will post another post for that)! This first picture is when Jeremy had his special day at school. I made him a poster to take.









We then went to a birthday party for his friend Cole. Cole's grandma has a pool and we went there when Cole turned 3. So it was fun to do it again.





























We also went to the duck pond with Jeremy's friend Sam. That is when we dropped the camera in the pond.










Jeremy has also lost another tooth. He has lost is two bottom teeth and now one top tooth and the other top tooth is loose.

Our sweet baby Isaac!

Isaac is growing so much! He is getting nice and plump and I just love kissing his fat cheeks. The boys love giving him loves and kisses. At his last checkup, he was 13 pounds and I am sure he's past that now! So here is a look back. Here he is with his brothers about 3 weeks old.

Here he is in some of his Sunday outfits when he's about a month or so old

He has also had a problem with his belly button. He got a hernia in it. It was protruding pretty bad so our pediatrician recommended we go to Primary Children's to have it looked at but the doctor there said it didn't need surgery right now. It is actually shrinking now.

Alex likes to crawl into the portable crib with Isaac. Jeremy did the same thing to Alex

This is Dad and Isaac after bathtime. Isaac is a really happy baby!

Finally, I took this picture when we were driving home from somewhere. It was so cute because all the boys were asleep and the older two boys had their hands on Isaac. It seemed like they were protecting him.

Some catchin up!

So we have our camera back. So bear with me while I put up some pictures from the last little while. The first ones are of when the boys started school. Alex is attending preschool a couple of days a week at Miss Helen's. She is in Ben's parents ward and is just the sweetest lady. Alex loves it. We also participate in a little neighborhood playschool one day a week with about 5 other kids. I take turns doing it with the other moms. Jeremy is in Kindergarten at Majestic Elementary. He really likes it. His teacher is Mrs. Stoker. Her husband was a former bishop of ours. I get to volunteer once a week in his class and it's been fun!
