Christmas & 6 month portraits

Grethel took the boys Christmas pictures yesterday.  We combined them with Anson’s 6 month pictures.  Here are a few of my favorite ones.

Aidan quickly got the hang of it.  He understood the concept and started walking up and holding his hands out waiting on them to give him his candy.  He really didn’t know what he was getting, he just knew he was getting something.

Austin and his loot.  His bag looks heavy and let me tell you, it was!!!  He got a ton of candy!!!!!!

Anson had fun trick or treating, too – but….

he quickly faded and had to be put in the stroller for the remainder of the night.

In the end, Ricky and I wonder if Aidan got more candy than Austin!  This is a picture of Aidan’s loot.  Austin did get more – but not a whole lot more than Aidan.  All in all, I think the boys had a wonderful time and we did too!!!

Halloween party at MDO

Aidan had his first Halloween party at Mother’s Day Out on the 30th.  He had so much fun!  Here are some pictures from the event.

Aidan has attached himself to Father Bill at the church.  He really likes to play and throw the ball back and forth with him.

Eating lunch – or as much as he is going to eat.  He only ate the chips … not the sandwich.  I guess there was just too much excitement!

Fixing his vacuum

Ricky had to replace the belt on our vacuum and Aidan was right there with him, paying attention to everything he did.  So, after Ricky finished with our vacuum and I had used it and put it up, we found Aidan with the screwdriver trying to “fix” his vacuum.

“This is how Daddy did it so it must be right.”

“Ok, I cannot get this one out.  It is too hard.  Wait, I think I am missing something.”

“Ok, now I have everything I need!”

Annual trip to Williams Orchard

p1020116.JPG

We made our annual trip to Williams Orchard in Argo a little later this year so we missed out on all the good pumpkins.  But, we stil picked up a few things and took some pictures of the little boys while there.  Austin was at Grandma’s so that is why he isn’t in the pictures.

Sitting on a pumpkin – just the right size!

“It’s too heavy, I can’t pick it up.”

“Ok, this is more my size!”

“What is it Mommy?  Can I eat it?”
