Halloween cupcakes!

I made some cupcakes today and Brynn got to decorate some of them.  She had a lot of fun and enjoyed sneaking a taste as she went!  But I think she may have enjoyed eating the final product the best!  Who doesn't love cupcakes?

 

Such determination and taste testing!

 So excited!

 That's my girl...digging right in!

Yummy

Little dude hung out while we decorated

Halloween sneak peek

I tried to take a picture of both kids and Rocky today.  Ummm...it didn't go exactly as I had planned!  I was lucky I ended up with the one shot of them all looking at me {or in my direction}, forget about any smiling!  So, I ended up just trying to take some individual pictures of them in their costumes.

Dorothy, Toto and the Cowardly Lion

 Okay, not too bad.

 Loosing interest.

Aaaand....we're done.

 Here is my pretty little Dorothy and my handsome little Lion!

Spooky spider

Brynn made this spider about a week ago and while I would like to say she enjoyed making him...she didn't.  She didn't like me brushing the paint on her hands or me pressing her fingers and palms on the paper.  She did, however, like the outcome.  And she carried him around for a bit after nap and will point to him on the refrigerator and say "Me"...she is so amazed that she made him.  She did like the regular old finger painting that followed though.  Are you ready for Halloween?

3 months old

Evan is 3 months old!  He is really starting to show off his little personality and be interactive.  He is goo-ing and gah-ing, smiling back at us, and giggling!  Baby giggles just may be one of the best things ever!  He loves chewing and sucking on his hands.  And like I said the other day he is *this* close to rolling over.  Overall, he is a pretty happy and easy baby!

And look...I was able to actually get a picture of him smiling!  {I do realize that he has a bit of an Alfalfa thing going on, but I didn't notice until I was done taking pictures!}

Weigh in

Evan was weighed at the pediatricians office today and was 14 pounds 14 ounces {with clothes on}.  He is getting so big.

Tummy Time!

Big guy is doing really well with tummy time.  Look at that head control!  He has rolled over a few times, but I'm not sure if it counts or not?  We prop him up on his elbows and then he kind of topples over onto his back...so I don't know if he would be able to completely do it on his own.  I'm sure it is coming pretty soon.

 And I like this one cause he is smirking and drooly!

Melts my heart!

These two kiddos sure do make me smile!

And boy does Brynn sure have a case of bedhead!

Apparently, I take her picture a lot!

We found an old camera when we were cleaning out the closet in Evan's room and Brynn immediately knew what to do with it.  You would think I take her picture a lot or something!  :)

 

Now every time I try to take her picture she goes and finds her camera and says "keez" and tries to take my picture.  She just needs to flip it around, but I suppose she is used to seeing the front of the camera.

  

{Her hair looks orange/reddish from the overhead lighting.  It's not really that color.}

Pumpkin Patch

We hit up the pumpkin patch last week. Brynn had a great time; running through the sunflower fields, playing with pumpkins, talking to the animals and navigating her way through a maze! Evan wasn't able to do quite as much...maybe next year!

Walking with Grandma

Too heavy

Make that 10

Brynn's bottom right molar popped through today.  The tooth count is now up to 10 and she is well on her way to a mouth full of chompers!

Like Father, like Daughter?

Pretty funny, huh?

Gym time!

Brynn has been going to her gym class for a few months, but when Evan was born we had to take some time off.  We started back yesterday and she had so much fun!  She was a little hesitant at first, but by the end of the warm up song she was clapping, laughing, dancing and following along.

Playing in the ball pit

I'm really glad we are able to go to class again.  She really enjoys getting out of the house and playing with other kids.  She was having such a great time that she didn't want to leave!  Evan was good and slept most of the class, so that made it a little easier for us.
