October Fun

Just another update of our busy lives. I think time flies faster with 3 kids!! Caleb is 1 month old now. It seemed like the last month of my pregnancy was never ending, but his 1st month of life zoomed by!!
Last weekend we went to the tri-cities for our annual craft weekend with Mark's side of the family. Didn't get much crafting done, but it was fun being with everyone. Here is our first breakfast. Blueberry pancakes ....with Halloween sprinkles!! YUM!!

Fun with Grandpa


Our little pumpkin....do you think he is contemplating what life is all about...or is it just gas?? :)

Anna and Dawn came for a quick visit and baby holding time.


Lilly had fun finding Grandma Great's slippers....here is her typical "cheese" face.

Fun with Grandma on the porch swing

We celebrated Grandma Great and Auntie Colleen's birthdays

1st photo capture of Caleb smiling

Can you tell big sister loves him?? She got all settled on the couch with the nursing cover and boppy and asked for Caleb. After awhile she pulled up her shirt and said "I need my bosom"...that's when we took Caleb away!! Do you think she has been watching her mom?? haha!!

On Monday night we carved pumpkins. Hayden dug right in with his hands and spent quite a while just mucking in the "guts" bowl to feel the "slime"

Lilly wasn't so sure about using her hands, so she used her spoon!

EWWW!!

Caleb's excitement during pumpkin carving!

Final products. Mark drew Lilly's pumpkin face first and when it was time to draw on Hayden's, Hayden wanted the exact same face. So much for creativity!! :)

Our 1 month old. He just looks so cute in person, but when I go to capture it on camera, it just doesn't do him justice (although he still is pretty cute in the picture!)

Big and Little!

Yesterday, Hayden was helping entertain Caleb while I was doing laundry. I had Caleb laying on the bed and Hayden went to lie down right next to him. It's amazing how much they grow in 3 1/2 years!!!!! Hayden loved that Caleb was looking at him and I don't think Caleb minded either! :)
