Ho, Ho, Hugh?

Finn on Santa Claus:

Me: Finn, did you know Santa Claus is coming soon?
Finn: Santa Closet?
Me: No, Santa Claus.
Finn: Santa is in the Closet?
Me: It looks like Santa has some explaining to do.

A Bootiful Halloween

Amazing Pumpkins

It was touch and go for a while, but we did make it out of the corn maze with both kids and without a GPS. Finn had a great time in the "corn jungle." Harper thought it was fun to, but she wasn't quite sure why we kept wondering around in circles. Along the way we also managed to find and purchase about 25lbs in pumpkins that are waiting to be carved.

There's Something About Harper

10!

Lil' Miss is ten months old. She is a funny little girl with a quick smile and an inquisitive personality. She is officially out of her infant car seat and has moved into the pinkest most obnoxious little girl car seat we could get our hands on (In our defense it was 50% off.) It is getting tougher and tougher to get her picture taken because she doesn't sit still for a second. She is also starting to stand on her own for a few seconds at a time and is working on breaking the land speed record for crawling. Because we have about 14 baby gates in our house, one of her favorite things to do is to pull herself up to the gate and start shaking them. It sort of looks like she is trying to break out of jail and I'm hopeful that it isn't an indication as to what the future might hold.

Mom, I'm Bored!

I rarely get bored, which means either I lead an unusually exciting life or I am easily entertained by the mundane. Fortunately for me the kids can't articulate their boredom just yet, but they do get restless and that is when one must get creative. Here are a few of those moments...









Making brownies









Playing birthday party









Fun with buckets and bowls










A toothbrush is a toy

Finn the Builder

It isn't really breaking and entering if the excavation equipment is just sitting there unlocked, right?
