Happy Birthday Mama!

Here I am, with my two beautiful babies on my 32nd birthday! Once I got passed 30, it's gotten much easier to swallow 31 and 32. I had a nice day, and got a few gifts including a slew of giftcards handpicked by Addison! lol. Fortunately, she has good taste! Mike and I celebrated by ourselves last night. We had a wonderful meal at Guri del Sol, a Brazillian Steakhouse. If you've never tried one of these places, and you LOVE meat then you should try it out. It was delicious and the company was perfect...Thanks Love!

Hard at work

Wanna bite?

Just kidding, it's MINE!

A highly recommended "cooking" experience for toddlers! These "pecial teats" are so easy to make and Addison really can do most of it herself. She was so proud!!!

Our little Spartan!

He loves to stand at this table.
Look at that dimple!

We got this outfit for Griffin when he was a baby....John & Melissa so graciously handed it down to Grayson and today, he got to sport it. Daddy is so proud!

Playing on the slide

That hair is always getting in the way!

Getting ready to turn on her belly

"Head first, mama?"

Addison loves this slide. It belongs to our neighbor and he's generously moved it closer and closer to our yard....Pretty much everytime we go outside, she's taking a slide or two. Apparently, sliding down on your belly is very fun too!

TEETH!

Just look at those teeth! He's got 5 now- the ones you can see here and his two top teeth are making their appearance now too!

Thanks Becky!

Becky took these pictures of Addison a few weeks back. I love them and wanted to share them with you. WHERE did my baby go?

Trick or Treat!

Grayson looking sweet as ever!

Snow White's little bears

Believe it or not, this is the best one we got of the two of them together!

Not so happy about posing, but look how cute!

What a great time we had last night trick or treating! Addison was more than happy to skip the scary houses...actually she was more than happy to just stop trick or treating once she got a tootsie pop! We continued on and did most of the houses in the neighborhood. She got a ton of candy! Grayson hung out in his stroller and was just happy to be hanging out in his bear costume!

Pre-Halloween Fun

Having so much fun!

Busy at work

Addison's paint puddle

Jackson & Addison painting away!

We headed over to Becky's this week for some pre-halloween fun. Painting pumpkins, we've found it a lot less messy than your traditional carving. Addison & Jackson had so much fun painting away with their Diego lolipops. You'll see in the one picture, Addison decided she didn't have enough paint on her plate, so she dumped a ton of paint on it and continued her masterpiece. It started off a beautiful pumpkin-with pink, green and blue parts, and after the paint dumping, it ended up completely gray!
