Matthew's babies

A week and a half till our due date and Matthew is just now catching on to the whole "there's a baby in Mommy's tummy" thing...last night after dinner I was pointing at Matthew's very full belly and teasingly asking "What's in this belly?" Matthew's reply (in his very cute little voice)?  "Babies!"

Make-shift pumpkin patch

 Due to busy schedules and weather issues, we missed out on going to a real pumpkin patch this year. But, a quick trip to the grocery store, some decent afternoon weather and a few creative hiding spots around the yard turned out to be almost as fun as the real thing.

 Found one by the rosemary!

 This one's just my size!

 Almost as big as my head!

 This might be a little to big for me...

 Uh oh. One rolled under the deck.

 Decorating the front of the house.

 Can I get a hand with this?

These ones are all mine!

Favorite.

We love pumpkins!

Husky Prayer

Daniel literally ended his prayer like this the other night.


...and all you holy men and women...pray for us........
Amen............and Go Dawgs.

Amen little buddy, Amen.

No fun allowed

After a few times of being told that the current method of play is inappropriate, Daniel has taken to saying "Mom, why don't you just let us enjoy ourselves?!"

Hmmm...not sure how to respond to that.

Happy Birthday, Daniel!

Yesterday was Daniel's 4th birthday. We still can't believe he's already 4, but according to Daniel, he's been an adult for awhile now. His day was full of special treats, concluding with his requested mint chocolate chip ice cream cake and a few gifts.  

 The birthday boy!

 I can't wait to eat this!

 Presents!

 Love my new cash register!

Did you guys seriously get me a harmonica?
