Mmm, so Yummy!

Daniel and Joseph are now both eating cereal. We've already gone through a box of rice and are now almost finished with oatmeal. The doctor said we can start them on veggies and fruits, and I plan on it, but want to make my own (since we're feeding two and formula's costing us so much). Ooops, just realized we don't have any pictures of Joseph eating yet (just video). I'll get on that!

Nolan loves feeding them!

XOXO,

Train Museum Fall Festival

For the second year in a row we went to the festival at the Train Museum. As always, Nolan loved everything about it. It was the first true fall-like weather of the season and we loved every second of it! We also ran into one of the couples we sat with on our cruise a couple years ago, it was so bizarre!

Nolan and I on board one of the trains!

School Party

It was really more like Halloween week around here. Last Monday at our Mom & Me group we had a party. Nolan dressed up, but I did not get the babies dressed up. Then Thursday was his party at pre-school. Both parties were a blast. Nolan was sick last year so he missed his school party, but this year he was well and he was adamant that I come, too. I wasn't the only parent and it was fun to see him in action. Pretty funny that his assigned seat is next to his teacher. She laughed when I pointed that out...apparently he is quite the chatter box!

Brycen & Nolan trick or treating at church:

I refused to let Nolan take his sword out of the belt loop for fear of him getting too wild and hurting someone. Preschool class: Nolan eating lunch with his friend Joeli: This was on the wall of his classroom. I was very proud of my little boy!And Nolan loved showing off his brothers!!

XOXO,

Halloweenie Day

It was an awesome day. Brian and Nolan made orange/chocolate chip pancakes, which we drank with our pumpkin spice creamer coffee. Love this time of year. Then we carved pumpkins. Then Bri roasted the pumpkin seeds. Mmm, what a day!

XOXO,

Halloween Night

Okay, I think I have blogger under control temporarily. I'm still way behind on blogging, so let's get this party started!! Saturday, Halloween night, we had friends Erin and Evan over so the kids could trick or treat together. Griffon and Nolan are in school together and we're all part of the Mom & Me group here in town. We had a quick dinner and then dressed the kiddos up. My plan was to take the babies trick or treating so the neighbors could catch a glimpse of them, but it was a little too breezy and cool (believe it or not), so Erin, the babies and myself stayed behind to give out candy. Nolan scored quite a bit of candy and lots of fun was had! Here's the group together before trick or treating. Nolan, Joseph, Simone, Daniel & Griffon. The older boys were so not excited about pictures and were ready to get out the door for some CANDY!

The trick or treaters. Griffon is a dragon slayer and his sister Simone was the dragon, too cute! Erin made his costume, I am still so impressed. I made Nolan's costume. And by make I mean I cut the tags off and took it off the hanger.

Our three boys. Joseph and Daniel hated their costumes. Joseph asked me why I would make him dress up if he doesn't even get candy. I see his point!

Daniel:

Argh, walk the plank! Nolan couldn't decide between a sword and a hook, so he sported it all. XOXO,

Date Night baby!

Brian and I got to get away for dinner and a walk on the beach while his parents were here. It was long overdue and much appreciated!!!

Nolan didn't come along, but he wanted in on the pic: The best hubby!

XOXO,

Wonderful Visit

We had such a great time while Brian's parents and Grandma were here. I REALLY enjoyed the company, not to mention the extra hands to help. Great Grandma, PawPaw, Joseph, Nolan, Gramma & Daniel:

Great Grandma was Nolan's best bud and she introduced him to gum, as you can see!
