Pumpking Carving

Getting ready to carve pumpkins

Captain Holiday Aunt Casey is ready with Sam

Only dad gets to use the sharp knife

Tada!

Happy Halloween!

Cutest bee ever? This was taken after his morning nap, not at 6pm when the trick or treating got started!

Here is Woody from Toy Story - ready to hit the streets.

First stop was Lisa's awesome decorations!

Sam eats!

We were trying to be diligent and do what "they" say...feeding Sam a variety of single grain cereal as his first few "meals."  But let's face it - who likes plain rice cereal? We quickly moved to sweet potatoes and bananas. Yum!

Being 3 1/2

Ben is a solid 3 1/2 years old right now. Here are a few pictures that go with the territory.

He wants to put his OWN dressing on his salad.

 One morning Ben couldn't decide which cereal bowl he wanted to use.  So Dane decided (at 6:35am) that there was only one good option left. That's a mega bowl.

 And a mega spoon.

In classic big brother fashion, Ben wanted to use Sam's trick or treat bag from Grandma Jacks.  Luckily Sam didn't mind.

Fall

Our leaves are quickly changing colours and we are enjoying crisp but SUNNY days at the bleachers (and occasionally the playground).  We'll post those cute pumpkin-type pictures soon! Until then, here are a few to tide you over. And why yes that is a Tim Riggins inspired shirt on Ben.

Jolly Jumping

Sorry it's been so long...so long "they've" changed how we update our blog.  Here is a quick video of our latest afternoon activity.

Did Sam take this shot?
