More Pumpkin Carving Fun

We invited Franchesca and Gali over to carve pumpkins. We found out that they had never done this before. Gali loved digging her hands into the pumpkin....not really. She hated that part. But we all had fun carving really cool pictures. Kaleb had more fun scooping the seeds out.

Happy Thanksgiving

Here is Kaleb watching the big game on Thanksgiving day.

He looks comfy.

Kaleb is dressed and ready for his bike ride with daddy.

We got Kaleb his Christmas present early.

It has been cold and rainy here so we wanted

to make sure he got his wiggles out without having to go outside.

Here he is bouncing with the girls on Thanksgiving. This is in our garage.

All of Kaleb's P.J.'s are the zip up kind.

Up until a few days ago, he never really bothered with the zipper.

I found him like this after one of his naps. (See below)

Costume Fun

Kaleb and Daddy working outside.

The kids and I went to visit my parents last week.

Here is Kaleb and Judi reading books together.
This is the kids trying out their new stroller/jogger/trailer.
I wish this thing had a wall to separate these two.
Kaleb can't keep his hands to himself when they are both in there.
Here is Kaleb's costume for Halloween. He is a paratrooper.
You might not be able to see him. His is wearing camo gear.

This is Uncle Micheal holding Lilly in a rare moment of peace.

Here is Lilly's costume. She was a punk rocker.

Inspired by her hair.

She seems to like the mohawk.

Pumpkin Patch and New Traditions

They both look a little unsure.

We took Kaleb and Lillian to the Pumpkin Patch.

This is our new tradition.

Well, we did it with Kaleb last year so this is our second year.

Does that count as a tradition yet?

There are animals at this pumpkin patch and here is Kaleb

really wanting to go in there and play with the goats.

There were also tractors; Kaleb's favorite thing right now.

Kaleb is really into wearing hats right now.

He will wear his hats all day long inside and outside the house.

He also likes to wear bowls on his head in the bathtub.

I don't have a picture of that yet. Below, he is wearing one of daddy's hats.

The next part of our tradition is to carve the pumpkins together.

Well, daddy and I carved the pumpkins.

Kaleb helped to scoop out the guts.

The part of this tradition that I did not capture on film was

when Kaleb decided he was done with the pumpkins

and ran around the living room with pumpkins seeds all over his clothes.

The slimy seeds got everywhere. I was not happy. I hope next year is easier.

Here is Kaleb discovering the joy of bubble wrap.

Riding in the car.

This is what Lillian looks like when her hair is laying down.

Lilly looks so cute in hats.

This is Kaleb throwing a fit in his booster seat.

I thought it was funny, so i took pictures.

They both wanted to be in Mommy's lap.

Kaleb was helping Daddy water the trees.

I had to rinse him off before i could give him a bath.
