October Has Been Busy!



I know that we haven't been great about updating since we've moved...but we've been busy.  Here is a quick summary of the past few months in pictures.

 

 

Tommy has been spending a lot of time at the dentist.  We learned that we didn't win "Parents of the Year" about the same time that we learned that our son had 8 cavities.  Who knew you were supposed to floss your kids?  Luckily, Tommy's dentist uses laughing gas for fillings, so he really didn't seem to mind it at all.

 



 

Kate had her first cleaning this month.  As you can see from her face, they don't gas you for cleanings :(

 

 

Amy and the kids have been going to church every Sunday.  The kids hate wearing "handsome" clothes, but they look so cute when they do!

 

 

The kids have been enjoying their new big backyard.  We even have a rope swing!

 

 

Kate has been taking after her dad and she has been working on her culinary skills.  Her dollies like to help.

 

 

 

 

 

Amy has been working on her Pintrest skills.  Here is her latest Halloween decoration.

 

We finally got around to getting Kate her first haircut.  She insisted that Daddy bring her...

 

It started out well...

 

 

and then they brought out the hair dryer!!

 

 

Final product.  Next time Mommy will bring her.

 

Now on to Halloween happenings....

First we had The Halloween Howl at Tommy's school.  It was at Veasly park which provided a beautiful backdrop for a great event.

 

 

Our little Cinderella and Ninja had a blast.

 

There was donut eating...

 

 

 

 

and playground fun.  It is a good thing that Daddy remembered to put shorts on under Cinderella's gown.

 

 

Our next event was the Halloween parade at Tommy's school.  Mommy, Daddy, and Kate rushed over to the school to watch Tommy and his friends walk around the circle about a hundred times.  We clapped and cheered every time they came around!

 

 

I think Tommy is getting knighted in this picture.

 

 

 

Next was the Halloween party at Kate's school.

 

 

The other day Michelle and I caught Kate wearing her dress up bridal veil chasing Evan around the house asking him to marry her.  Apparently Evan still isn't over it...just look at that face!

 

More donut eating...

 

Crafts...

 

 

We don't have any more pictures of Tommy from that night because he was too busy running around with his friends.  They kindly asked me to stop following them.  Ummm...what??  You're five.

 

Next, on to trick-or-treating in the old neighborhood.

 

 

 

 

Last night we started to get our pumpkins ready for Groveland's trick-or-treating which is this Wednesday.

 

Tommy went for the traditional carving...

 

As usual, Kate decided to do it her way and opted for paint.

 

 

 

More to come as Halloween continues...
