Jacob Saying

On Thursday when Jacob went to bed Kevin was on the computer in his office. The next morning Kevin woke up early to check his email and Jacob woke up and came into his office. He said "Daddy you forgot to go to bed" It was cute that he thought Daddy had stayed in his office through the night.

Some Family Pictures

In October I took the kids to a portrait studio and got some pictures finally of them together. They did such a good job. We waited for over an hour and both were still very happy. Jacob loved having his picture being taken. He wanted to have more when we were done.
Our two wonderful and beautiful children.

Erin being oh sooo... cute.

Love this picture, it shows some personality.

Trick or Treating - October 31, 2008

Of we course we went trick or treating with the kids. ERin was an adorable pumpkin and Jacob was obviously a race care driver (in a motorcycle driver outfit, because we couldn't find a costume in his size that he liked. He couldn't tell the difference so we just told him that it was a race car driver costume. It worked like a charm) We went trunk or treating at the church first, then Kevin took Jacob around the neighborhood for more candy while Susan and Erin stayed home and handed out candy. Jacob was very excited. I think now he gets that at each house he gets candy and that he doesn't have to give away his candy to them. When he was almost 2 years old and we went out trick or treating he was handing his candy at the door because he thought he had to give candy away. it was cute. But now he demands candy at the doors, but in a nice way.

Pumpkin Carving - October 26, 2008

Instead of carving pumpkins this year, we just decorated pumpkins. Much more kid-friendly and whole lot easier to clean up. yeah. Jacob had a blast. He picked out his pumpkin at the pumpkin patch a couple of weeks ago with his preschool class and had been waiting to decorate it. He picked out the Mr. Potatoe Vampire decor, we had the other one from the last few years. Again, poor Erin had gone to bed, maybe next year she will be able to participate.

Halloween Cookie Night - October 20, 2008

The whole gang

Eating them was the most important thing of the night. Jacob had black and orange frosting all over his teeth and his mouth, it was very cute.

Father like Son

We decorated halloween cookies with our next door neighbors, Jones. The kids had lots of fun, however, Erin was asleep so she missed out on all the fun.
