October 2011

The boys took a break and checked our their loot!

 

Daddy was off from work – yay!  We had a great time trick-or-treating with the boys this year!  It was the first time that they both enjoyed the holiday as Jack was too young last year.

Mike and Jack would both go up to a door, Mike would ring the bell and they both would shout “trick-or-treat” when someone answered the door :)

Mike’s class got into the Halloween spirit and dressed up!

     

We made candy apples…

Mommy, Mike, Jack and “my little pumpkin” (check out Mommy’s shirt - from Aunt Meghan).  Next year, we will have 3 to dress up!

The 4 of us on Halloween…

Our 2 little superheroes – Spiderman and Flash Gordon…

Grandma and Grandpa and the superheroes…

Mike got treats from our neighbors…

 

And so did Jack!!

Jack turned 2 and opened presents for his birthday!

We all helped Jack blow out his 2 candles!!

Jack loved his cupcakes :)

 

And so did Mike!

More presents to be opened…

Jack gave Ireland some of his cupcake!

 

We took advantage of a warm day in October and went to a playground!!

More cupcakes for the birthday boy :)

And for the brother of the birthday boy :)

Out and about in their jeep…

 

Hugs!

 

Pumpkins and more pumpkins for the boys!!

Another beautiful October day…

2 thumbs up and 2 arms up :)

 

Mike and Jack love to drive in the jeep!

More cupcakes…

We went to the Pumpkin Festival…they had animals and bouncers and slides in addition to the pumpkins ;)

Mike and Jack chased the chickens…Jack was saying, “Eat, eat”!!  It was pretty funny :)

Check out the size of this turkey!

Daddy and Mike went through a bouncer maze…

Mommy and Jack went down the slide…Jack doesn’t like the slides very much…

Mommy and Mike went down next…Mike loves the slides…

The four of us…the boys were saying, “CHEESE”!

For Jack’s birthday party, we did a football theme for the cupcakes and cake pops…Giants!

We took the boys to a pumpkin patch one afternoon…

Thumbs up from Mike!

Mommy and the boys…only 10 more weeks and the boys will have a little brother or sister!

Mommy and Daddy got the boys a jeep…Mike is very serious when driving it…

Mike and Jack in their new jeep…it has a radio and Mike likes to listen to classical music while driving!  He also likes to listen to dance music while driving – and he and Jack “dance” while in the jeep!

 

Big Mike and Nana came for a visit…

Nana, reading to the boys…

The boys love books, especially Mike…

Big Mike and the boys…

Mommy, Daddy, Mike and Jack went to a birthday party last weekend…

Mike and Jack enjoyed bouncing!

Brothers in a basket!!

The boys LOVE taking baths and ask to get in the bath EVERY time they go to Grandma and Grandpa’s house!

Mike and Jack get some play time in before going to school.  On this particular day Mike said, “Jacky is my best friend” – it was the cutest thing!  Of course, one minute later they were fighting over the plane ;)

See the floppy sock on Jack’s foot?  Mike tried to help out Mommy and get Jack’s socks and sneakers on!

The boys helped Daddy wash the car…

Jack LOVES balloons!  He will hold on to one while playing with his toys!

Mike painted a train engine…

Another balloon…

It was a beautiful weekend so we spent lots of time outside…the boys enjoyed using their bounce house!

 

The festival tired out the boys…

Some pics from the summer…

More fall festival pics…

The four of us went to a fall festival and we had a great time!
