Halloween 2010

This year we enjoyed trick-or-treating on our own street. We just took the kids up and down the street. Hannah did a great job saying trick-or-treat. Everyone loved talking to her.

Isaac's first Halloween: our little pea pod

the cutest little lady bug

thank you Daddy for leaving one pile of leaves for our photo opt. :)

and she's off!!

it didn't take Isaac long to fall asleep.

this is one very happy trick-or-treater. We got back just in time to put the light on and pass out candy for a while. What a fun filled evening!

Pumpkin Carving

Grandma got Hannah the book "The Pumpkin Patch Parable". A great book about a farmer growing and carving his pumpkin with scripture on every page. We read the story together then started carving Hannah's pumpkin. She was a little more brave this year and was willing to stick her hand in to pull out the seeds, but still thought it felt pretty yucky.

we decided to carve our pumpkin just like the Farmers with two triangle eyes, a square nose, and big smile!

Hannah is so excited about her pumpkin and hoping that he will bring lots of smiles.

Isaac slept through pumpkin carving...but I had to throw in this cute pic of him!

How we deal with the sniffles

When the weather is 70 degrees one day and 50 the next, you know that cold season is here. Hannah has had a cold most of this past week (can you see it in her eyes..poor baby). One thing that she loved while she was sick was a warm drink. In this pic, she was enjoying some warm apple cider from her big girl mug. She's also been lovin' hot green tea. I love to sit and sip a warm cup of coffee with her, and of course, I love being able to give her anything that will make her feel just a little bit better.

Kitty Love

Hannah LOVES her kitty...and I'm pretty sure he's starting to love her too!

Here are some cute shots I got of the two of them.

She loves to read to him...

and at the end of the day, they crash together. Whoever said that cats aren't loyal?

My little Pumpkins

1 month well baby visit

We headed to the doctor today for Isaac's one month well baby check up, and Hannah came along because she was complaining of her ear hurting. With the exception of their colds (Hannah was so sweet to share hers with Isaac) they were both given a clean bill of health.
I could not believe how much Isaac has grown in just one month!

Height: 23 inches (95th percentile)
Weight: 11 lbs 8 oz (75th percentile)

Is this really my child? :)
We thank God for a happy/healthy/growing baby!

Isaac @ 6 weeks

and here is my sweet yet a little bit ornery (can't you see it in her eyes?) two year old :)
