Happy Halloween 2010

For Halloween this year Adam was dressed as a cow, and Christopher was Mickey Mouse.  This was a big night for out little Trick or Treaters....Especially Christopher as this was his first night out trick or treating.  Adam went last year but didn't really get it.  This year he loved it.

Auntie Meagan and Matt were down visting for the weekend so they came out with us as we hit up the houses in our neighborhood.

From there we went to Grandpas, and then off to Pat and Lindsey's to do some trick or treating with Ben. 

We ended the night visting Grandma. 

Adam absolutely loved trick or treating, and was sooooo good at it....sometimes he was a little too friendly:)  it was a great night filled with fun, and lots of candy....Until next year.

Happy Halloween!!!

I feel like I am pretty good at taking pictures of the boys, but I don't really have any bath time photos....so during the last bath time....Dan thought it was a great opportunity for a photo opp.

The boys seem to love bath time for the most part, until its time to wash their hair.  We have a hand-held shower, which seems to be the best way to get their hair washed...
Adam doesn't seem to mind it, as he loves taking showers, where Christopher on the other hand, as soon as the shower is in your hand, he is screaming and squirming to get the heck out of the tub. 

After a minute of torture, they are back to having a good time....

Halloween at General Mills


On Saturday, October 24th the boys and I along with Mindy, and Jason and all the kids were invited to General Mills where Lindsey works for the Fall Festival.  The kids can dress up in their costumes, play games, get their faces painted, and go on a candy walk.   It was a great day,and all the kids had a ton of fun.  Can't wait to do it all over again next year.

E PIASE

Adam has been getting into coloring so much more lately and it seems like every day we are bringing home prized artwork from our little Picasso.....Well one day last week Adam had made a rainbow, which he was very excited that he came up with this all on his own.  Rita is always good about giving me his artwork every day when we leave her house but today Adam had to give me this all on his own.

He held it behind his back, and said "Mommy Close Eyes.....E PIASE!"  Translation: "Mommy Cose your eyes....SURPRISE!"  It was so darn cute hearing him get all excited.  It has now turned into a game....he starts with Mommy and Daddy, then Christopher all the way down to D-Dogg (his blankie)  I just love hearing him get all excited:)

I can't wait to hear what he comes up with next!
