At lunch, I decided that I wanted to do a little reading and show mommy what toys I wanted for Xmas. Here I am studying the TRU catalog and pointing out what looks good to me:

We have a new friend. Her name is Violet. She is soooo much fun to play with. Whenever she comes over, we always lose track of time because we don’t want the fun to stop. Daddy was friends with her mom in high school and thanks to FB, we have a new play friend. She is coming over today and we are can’t wait. Here are some pictures of the good times we have had on the last two playdates:

Oh, and her mom is pretty cool too, or so Mommy and Daddy say!

Connor and I like to have snack in our little playhouse. Mommy and Daddy like it when we dump the bowl of crackers in there (versus the kitchen floor). Here we are pondering the worlds affairs over a glass of juice:

Who would have ever thought that Moxie was going to love us kids. Mommy & daddy sure didn’t. Here she is demonstrating her patience as I line-up my cars on her:

Amelia swooped in to save Moxie and milliseconds later, she pushed all the cars off of her (and then pushed Moxie off too) but she made it up to her the next day and gave her a kiss:

A silly game of peek-a-boo with daddy:

Now when mommy tells me to smile, this is what I do:

Just like daddy used to. It may be Amelia’s baby, but she doesn’t mind if I help take care of her:

here are some more pictures of us outside playing in the leaves. We had a blast this year. Daddy made us a huge pile and we ran through them, jumped in then and even got pulled through them in our wagon:

I have taking a liking to jumping in the leaves. Here I am showing off my mad skills while daddy makes a great pile for me:

with the fall photos. Here are some pictures of us before the leaves starting falling:


And here are some us just playing inside (both these outfits Grammie bought us; we think she has great taste)

We had lots of fun on Halloween. Even though we didn’t go Trick-or-Treating (because mommy says we can’t go until we can say it so I am going to start practicing now so next year we can go) it was still a great day. We carved a pumpkin, had pizza for dinner as a treat and got to hand out candy to complete strangers. We also got to eat some candy…some gummi life savers and a hoppy pop (lollipop): Here are some pictures of our evening:





And here is a picture of the reason why mommy doesn’t leave us alone with daddy:
