Graeme's Superhero Training Camp Party

Graeme's 5th birthday party was a Superhero Training Camp theme. He dressed up as Spiderman.

There was an obstacle course, sports and other games to play beyond the fence. There were 8 stations set up; you just can't see them in this picture.

Here are all his friends. Most of them dressed up as their favorite superhero. They also decorated capes and masks once they completed their training camp.

We had a Spiderman cake and Hulk cupcakes. It was a SUPER day!!!

My Life Just Got a Little Easier...

Now that sister can sit up by herself, I can bathe all of them in the tub at once instead of in shifts. Yeah for me!

Trip to Chester's Pumpkin Patch

We all had a great time at the pumpkin patch today. Hopefully, Graeme will ride a pony next year and feed the animals. Here are some pictures of the things we did. I have no photographic abilities so I was just snapping the subjects as fast as I could. Please look beyond the fact that no one is looking at the camera and try to imagine that they are smiling RIGHT at you.


It looks like sister is standing but that is not the case.








HAYRIDE




Hey! Look at anything but me! Thanks!


MAZE



Gavin wasn't cooperating at all when it came to posing for the camera so we have some shots of Graeme by himself.




THE FAST SLIDE
They told us they waxed it the night before and I believe it! There is no stopping once you get going which is very fast and then land in a huge pile of sand. Not good for the shoes...

7 Months... Where has this year gone?

Playing with Big Brother

Linebacker vs. Basketball Player

Which one looks like he should be on a football team? Is it just me or does Gavin look enormous in this picture? His head,neck,and legs look twice the size of Graeme's.

The 3 Musketeers

Cheesy Version

Head Start on Halloween

Not sure what we are going for here:


Gavin likes to make this face and say "cheese" when he sees the camera so here is the "cheesy version:

Good Morning Sister!

What is This?

Fun in a Box

Our Little Picasso

I can't believe how much this child likes to scribble! I haven't really shown Gavin how to use these things but he has taken to writing utensils and medium like a fish to water. Graeme didn't play with this easel very much when he was younger so I put it in the closet. It gets alot of use now.

Caroline at 6 months

I can't believe she is 6 months old! She is changing so much. Her eyes are getting better all the time. It is still very difficult to get a picture of her looking at the camera. She sees the flash and immediately crosses her eyes. I tried to pick some shots of her where you can still see her face even if she is looking away. She focuses on her toys now which is a good sign. She goes to the eye doctor in a week so we will see what he has to say.

National Anthem

Isn't this sweet?
