Anthony Speaks

Anthony is starting to talk a little bit, in addition to the few signs he has. The video below shows what happens every time we try to get him to say "Dada." I love it since Vincent said "daddy" first and never said mama until he was about 20 months old.

Pumpkins and Diapers

We went to the pumpkin patch today with Mariah, Sidney and Gabe. The kids had a great time and so did the mommies! We all played in the corn and in the bouncy house. They don't do hay rides during the week, so we missed out on that, but maybe if the weather's nice this weekend we'll try again. I got pumpkins for everyone and I thought Anthony's was particularly appropriate. His is the one with the "mohawk" stem. Love it!





Tonight Dan went in to check on Vincent and came out laughing. I knew right away Vince must have gotten into something and been sleeping with it. "What does he have?" I asked. "I think he has some diapers in his bed." I shook my head in amusement; this is not the first time he's played with his diaper drawer since we switched him. ... So Dan went back in to pick them up and he came back a second later, laughing even harder. "Well, I know why he has diapers in his bed." At this point I'm preparing myself mentally to go clean up a huge poopy mess or something. Then Dan says, "he has the whole drawer in his bed!" Sigh. How can you do anything but laugh at that? And take pictures, of course.

Big Weekend

Vince and Mommy got to ride horses tonight for the first time. A couple in our church hosts the Annual Fall Round Up at their farm and they invite everyone out for horse rides, hay rides and dinner. The boys didn't make it to the hay ride, but they got to see their first bon fire! We all had a great time. Vincent loved running around the property, chasing the big kids.


We got a visit from Dan's youngest sister and her family this weekend as they stopped by on their way through town. Bella and Vince had a great time chasing each other around and we loved playing ring around the rosy.

Scrunchy Nose

Well it's certain that Anthony has more of my features than Vince does. Here's the scrunchy nose to prove it. So CUTE!
