Happy Halloween

Our Little Stinker....


Does this costume make you smile/laugh or what? Gavin's 1st Halloween

Playing in the Leaves











2 weekends ago - Scott started our 1st round of raking leaves - and we ended up helping too.
(We have LOTS of trees by our house - which is great and very pretty - but it also means LOTS of leaves to rake in the fall too).

Gavin in his 1st pile of leaves in our backyard.








Cricket, my neighbor's daughter and Gavin playing in the leaves.












And - while we were finishing up raking the leaves - we had to throw on the Halloween costumes too - or at least Cricket and Charlie did (my neighbor's kids). And Cricket liked Gavin's hood up too....

What's Up

Gavin was rapping in the bathroom....

I Love Spoons

We have been letting Gavin "play" with a spoon and he loves to stir now in a bowl. Daddy has let him hold the spoon by himself but helps him put food in his mouth - here you can see one of his latest tricks - NO HANDS!!! Now that is what I call talent.... (I'm sure we will think less of this when food ends up all over our walls and floor.)

Choosing the perfect pumpkins





Scott had to literally "hunt down" a wheelbarrow for us to use - he went to the parking lot to get one.... so then we got to pick our favorite pumpkins to take home.

Gavin was just chillin' in the wheelbarrow and thinking - this is fun!

Pumpkin Patch


In October, we headed to a pumpkin patch over by Milford, OH - and there were a TON of pumpkins to choose from and a TON of people too. Gavin's 1st time ever seeing a real pumpkin... I think he thought it was an orange drum at first. And - he also enjoyed watching all the people too....













Miles - I love your toys!

We had a great time celebrating Miles's 1st birthday on October 18th - AND Gavin loved Miles's toy room - all the kids just loved playing in there.

Gavin, Miles & Greta - playing with toys - and as you can see - they really don't care about playing "with" each other... just love all the toys.
