Ravioli Mess

Sarah was eating ravioli recently and unlike her usual tidy self, made quite a mess.

Halloween night

We had a great time on Halloween. We took the kids to a few houses around the neighborhood and they went "trick-or-treating. Sarah was quite taken with a little ghost. She tried to hug it but I wasn't in time with the camera. Caleb also thinks that pumpkins are part of some strong man competition that only he knows about. He really wants to pick them up! They had fun and enjoyed their treats. Sarah layed her items out and looked at them, while Caleb tried to eat the fruit snacks package and all! I can't wait for next year!

Pumpkin Goo

The kids are really enjoying Halloween this year. David cleaned out a pumpkin and we let the kids play with the goo. Caleb was all over it, he dug right in, flinging pumpkin goo all over the kitchen. He was slimed from head to toe and loved it! Sarah didn't like getting dirty and preferred to try the more calculated task of picking up the individual, slimy pumpkin seeds. Which she was pretty good at. They dropped the pumkin top into the pumpkin and tried unsuccessfully to get it out. It was too funny to watch!

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the pumpkin patch and the kids picked out pumpkins. They even wore the special Halloween costumes that Grandma made for them! We went to a place that had a hay bale maze just right for little ones. The kids had a blast.

Fun Stuff

Grandma and Grandpa brought the kids some party blowers. Grandpa was teaching Sarah how to use it. They really had fun with it. Caleb walked around making the sound with his voice since he couldn't do it by blowing. He's also very happy with the hat to his Halloween costume!

Misc. Pix

The first picture is from cousin Michaela's birthday party. We're about to head home so that's why we're in PJ's. If not you would see the kids sporting their first tattoos. It was a Tinkerbell themed party so Caleb has a pirate skull on his arm and Sarah had Tink. They had fun running Mom and Dad ragged. The next two pictures are of them in their new tunnel. Their friend Scout has one and they loved it so much they had to get one of their own. Sarah picks it up and shakes it, they get in it and roll, they chase each other, play peekaboo and so much more in it. It's too funny!

1st Trip to the Beach

We took the kids to the coast over Labor Day weekend. It was a gorgeous day and they absolutely loved it. They both wanted to run to the water. Once Sarah got there she didn't like it but for some reason she just kept going back. Caleb didn't care how cold it was, he wanted to get to the water and play! They both loved the sand, Caleb immediately started burying himself and eventually did eat some. Sarah was a little cautious at first but decided she really liked it. She kept trying to walk in the dry sand and had trouble but it was pretty funny.
