So Fresh and So Clean

Gene was giving Carter a kiss because he just landed on top of Carter while performing his stunts.
My boys just love their bath. I was playing around with the camera the other night when they were in the tub and snapped some cute pictures. Gene was holding the water olympics during this time. He uses the back of the tub as a slide and swims laps in the tub. Carter tries to do what his brother does, and at some point during bath time someone usually ends up crying. Anyways, here are some pictures of the boys at bathtime.

Carving Pumpkins 2008

Monday evening we decided to carve our pumpkins. Gene was so excited! Carter had no clue what we going on. We are not pros at this by any means, and to make matters worse, our pumpkins this year had such thick skins that the pumpkin would crack and break off when we were cutting them. Needless to say, there are no pictures of our homemade designs on here. I thought I would post some pictures of the kids with the pumpkins though.

Tim & Amy's News

Our family is truly blessed to have so many people to love and support one another through everything that life brings. We have a blessing on the way. Chris's brother Tim and his wife Amy found out today that they are expecting a little girl in March. She went in for her 20 week ultrasound and they were lucky enough to be able to see the sex. I am so excited for them! Amy was wanting a little girl. Chris tells me we are done, so atleast I will get my fix somewhere for buying all the cute little girl stuff. Congratulations to you both!

5 Things I hate to admit......

Sara and Mindy that I work with both did this and I thought it was kind of cool, so what the hell. Here we go.

1. I am with Sara on this one. I love to clean. I get a natural high when my house is spotless and my laundry is done and put away. Not to mention I love buying cleaning products. When I see something that is new and inventive and is supposed to do something wonderful, I usually get all excited and try it. Granted there are the old reliables such as Mr. Clean magic erasers and Windex Antibacterial. I love the smell of bleach and lemons in my cleaning products too.

2. I have to have the toilet paper roll on the holder a certain way. It has to be on there so that the sheets cascade down over the top of the rest of the roll. It can't go between the roll and the holder coming down through the bottom. If I am at your house and it is the wrong way, I will have to change it.

3. I love Coke! I need my pop! Try as I might, I can't give it up. Something with the carbonation and the caffeine. I know it would help my figure huge to give up this legal drug, but I am hooked.

4. I am a tomboy in a non butch sort of way. I don't like getting all dressed up and being made a fuss over. I would never wear a dress again if I didn't have to. I am fine with a nice top, shirt, or whatever you call it and a nice pair of black pants. I love being outside and would be a farmer if I could. I would have a huge vegetable garden, fruit trees, and my herd of cattle.

5. The kitchen is my favorite part of our house. I love to cook. I love dishes and have a sick obsession with serving pieces. Right now I do not need another dish for anything, but the next time I am out and see something bright and fun or organizational, you know I will come home with it and have to find a place for it.

Grandparents

For those of you that don't know, there is just something so special about my Grandpa Gene. I love all of my grandparents and been truly blessed with a lot of really good ones, but Grandpa Gene is extra special to me. I took this picture at my cousin's wedding the beginning of this month. There is Grandma Diane, Grandpa Gene, and my uncle Kenny. I just love this picture and had to put it out there.

October 2008

We at the Hautt house have been hanging out and enjoying what little free time we have these days. I haven't posted anything in a while because life just gets away, but I thought I would post some new pictures of my little darlings.
In the one picture, Carter is shaking his little booty to the John Deere song on their John Deere kids movie. My family should live on farm!!!!
