Technical Difficulties

No photos this week - we're having some technical difficulties uploading pictures.  We might be moving the blog or "upgrading" our service here... but for now here's what we've been up to.

We packed a shoe box for Operation Christmas Child.  The boys had a blast picking out presents for another little boy and dropping off the box at the collection site. 

Abigail did start rolling this week, as predicted.  She's even rolled once back off her belly to her back but only once.  She also moved into size 6 month clothes and finally figured out the benefit of a pacifier.  It's been quite a week!  And she has her 2 month 4 month doctor's appointment tomorrow. 

We had a nice second Thanksgiving this week.  The boys made candles that they couldn't wait for us to use at dinner.  And of course hand print turkeys.  We even made it most of the through dinner before someone started crying. 

Other than that it was the usual - preschool, the library, the park, lots of reading, lots of coloring, playgroup, making movies, and generally being crazy.  And starting to get ready for Christmas! 

4 months!

Princess Abigail is 4 months old today!  Say what?!? 

Meanwhile Chris learned to cross his eyes this week.  The tongue rolling thing is so last week. 

Ben has taken to saying things like "ya know, 2 + 1 = 3." 

Whatever will they think of next?

After more rolling of course.

She is trying so hard, if you give her a hand to pull herself over she can go back to belly.

Growing Up

Looking for the two blue stuffed mice that like to hide in different spots in the shop window. 

Creative coloring. 

Charming each other.

Serious chocolate milk mustache.

Celebrating the feast of St Martin with spice cake and candles.

 

Growing so fast!

Halloween!

We got to help decorate the lobby of our building for Halloween. 

Halloween cake, round 1. 

Thankfully She hasn't quite outgrown the 3 month clothes yet so she could wear this cute suit.  But it's getting close. 

Trick or treating.  Apparently being out before 6pm is crazy early around here. 

And yes it was raining. 

Halloween cake, round 2.  Really.  Just what every kid needs when he comes home from trick or treating - cake pops!  We love our neighbors (?) 

Ahh, fall.  And sunshine. 

You know she's just itching to get her little hands on all that candy.  Except the stuff with milk.  Or egg.  Or nuts.  Or soy.  (Mom isn't getting much candy either.) 

Pumpkin patch!

This week's adventures included a preschool field trip to the pumpkin patch. 

Quite a bunch, aren't they?  (And someone looks rather nervous to be part of this bunch.) 

And for now we wish you sweet dreams. 

And hope everyone is safe and warm this week!

Just faces

 

 

We're short on time tonight so just the latest shots.  Maybe next week someone will be sleeping better in the evenings and we'll have more chance to tell you all about the smiles, preschool, reading, and any other mischief adventures we have :) 

The October Thanksgiving activities

 

 

Happy  Thanksgiving!

 

 

My brothers will share, right?

 

 

Hmmm...which way is the longest loop home? 

 

Showing off his new flag

 

Their very own Halloween reading hidey hole.

 

"Here's how you smile, Mr. Polar Bear."

 



Enjoying the usual

Chris creating crafty circles.

 

Out for a walk.

Seeing just what she can get in her mouth.

 

Cookies.

Poor Miss Cranky had a rough evening and finally passed out.  Yup, just like that.  Teething is no fun :( 

Shenanigans

Yes, they ate the cheese rather than put it on their pizza.  And were quite pleased with themselves. 

All hanging out.  What a bunch.

Not so impressed with the boys' bath time shenanigans. 

 

Home again, home again

Making "Little Red Hen cake."

Showing off the gourds we bought for the first day of fall.

Cuties.

Chris had his first day of preschool!

Good sharing does happen from time to time.

2 Months

We can't believe little miss Abigail is 2 months old already!  She's such a happy baby (when her tummy isn't bothering her.)  Her big brothers love her and shower her with kisses.  What will the next month bring?  :)
