Happy Halloween!

Our little Tigger and The Little Mermaid (she wasn't Ariel--she was The Little Mermaid because her name is Abby) had a great Halloween season. We did the traditional activities and had a great time!

Visiting a Pumpkin Patch:

Decorating Pumpkins:

Please admire the face Abby drew. You can see two eyes and a smile on the top of the pumpkin drawn in marker. She is just now starting to draw shapes for faces and it's so fun to see (and brag about)!

Sam, as always, wanted to participate as much as possible so he got to hold a paintbrush and be cute.

Dressing Up and Trick-or-Treating:

While trick-or-treating, Abby was sure to let everyone know that Sam was too little to grab his own candy out of the bowl so she was going to take one for herself and one for her baby brother

Sam. Proud parent moment!

Enjoying the Loot:

Sam got to enjoy several sucks of a lollipop before it dropped it to the floor in hopes of grabbing another great prize--an empty Nerds box!

Bathing Beauties

When Abby was about 7 months old, we got this cute picture of her in the bathtub. Abby is a very photogenic kid and we take lots of pictures, but this remains one of my favorites. Look at her cuteness!

A couple weeks ago, I got some cute pictures of Sam in the bathtub. Since we now have more than one bathroom, that means I get to do a little bit of bathroom decorating in our guest bathroom. I want to put up a black and white bathtub picture of each kid, but I can't decide

which picture of Sam to use. He is also incredibly photogenic and just so cute! What do you think?

#1--This shows a lot of Sam's mischievous personality. And look at those rolls!

#2--But then look at that smile! Can't you just feel happiness pouring out of him? I absolutely love my boy!

Happy Fall!

We are really enjoying the gorgeous fall weather! And somehow my kids are getting bigger and cuter. I can't stand it!

Still Alive and Kickin'

We are buried in boxes (again), but our move was a success and we are in a cute townhouse in a neighborhood with lots of parks. Sam is starting to crawl backwards, the kids wrestle a lot, and Abby always wants to go exploring. Life is good!
