A little of this..a little of that

Guess who wrote on his first wall....

 

Dinner at the Ides' house

They were playing in her room..hmm should I be worried?

Home sickwith Daddy..fell asleep on the couch before he could eat lunch :(

(Sorry, don't know why they aren't turning)

Fingerpainting...gonna make some handprint turkeys for our Thanksgiving cards

Breakfast time!

Game day..everyone in their Bills gear..although, does it really help?? :)

Lukey couldn't make it through lunch!  (This is his first time )

Their new favorite game..taking off their pants whenever they can....super fun!!!!

Another fun game....squeezing into all of the baskets  ( I will mention we are down 2!)

New playroom setup since the walkers needed more room to cruise

(notice again..no pants!)

Carving Pumpkins

Opening Aunt Shanell, Uncle Roger, and Jackson's present

Trains!!!

Aunt Nelly sent up all of Jackson's Thomas trains and tracks..so many!  He was sooo excited!

Daddy set up Ollie's new track!

Carving his pumpkin with Papa

Not so much a fan of getting his hands in it..he mostly left that up to Papa!

Ollie & Papa being silly

Our pumpkins!

Papa grew pumpkins for the boys in his garden this year.  He grew a big one for Ollie and smaller ones for brothers.  Ollie helped Papa pick out a scary (hmmm?) face and use stick in eyes, mouths, and ears for Brothers' pumpkins.  All of our trick or treaters loved our "Mr. Potato Head" pumpkins! :)

Birthday Weekend #2

Opening presents from Aunt Linda & Uncle Larry!

What is it??

Penguin Birthday cake

Monsters waiting for some cake!

(Jake on left, Luke on right)

Loving the penguin cake..well mostly the candle, but whatever

At The MOST with his buddy, Drew, checking out some dinosaurs

Don't remember what this one was called..weird names these guys had!

Brothers were also intrigued

Shawn with his two boys, Nate and Drew

Mommy & Ollie trying not to get eaten by a T-Rex!

Climbing the rock wall with Uncle Shawn..Mommy could only get me half way :)

Brothers had enough of the stroller!

Lynne and Shawn brought their boys from Albany to celebrate Ollie's birthday!  It was great to see them!  We spent the next day at the MOST (Museum of Science and Technology) where we saw dinosaurs, went down a huge side, and played with cool stuff!

Family Pics!

Jake & Luke

Not sure why this is smaller..but I love this one!

Love him!

I don't think we have had a professional photo taken together since our wedding :)

Family fun :)

My favorite family photo

OK, I know it's been awhile....when my Grandma keeps giving me hints, its time to get things moving!  These were taken in Sept. right before school started.  I had been waiting to post them because on the cd they are listed by pose # and there were a million so I kept putting it off and here we are..almost December!  The babies hadn't started walking yet here, so they actually stayed put for a couple of minutes :)

Apple picking!

We had a great day in CNY..lots of sunshine! Daddy had a golf event so we went with the Ides to Beak and Skiff to pick apples. Ollie loved riding the pony and picking the apples :)

Misc. Fun!

This still gets screwed up, so I will just have to repport down here instead of with the pic. The top ones are of Miss Avery's 3rd birthday party. It was at a bouncy house which the kids loved!
You can see tired they ae..didn't even make it home :) Next is a trip to the zoo with friends formwork and their kids. Our zoo has baby tigers which just came out in the open..so cool! Ollie and I like to make muffins and then the last one is of Lukey..many nights when I go to check on them before bed I have to pull their pants up! Hilarious.... who knows what they're doing up there!
