Happy Halloween!




We got together with friends for dinner and trick or treating--it was Will's first time begging for goodies, and he was a quick learner. His routine consisted of a quick "trick or treat," a gleeful peek in the bag, a prompted "thank you," and a command for "next house!" Seeing as how he's still mumbling to himself in bed (at 10:14 pm), I'm guessing the sugar might have overloaded his system a little. I'm thinking this pirate enjoyed himself. The bumblebee, on the other hand, would probably have preferred to be in his nice warm crib. Or maybe he was just jealous of his bro's stash.

Regarding the three pictures below--Yeah, you try and get two children under 3 to look at a camera and smile simultaneously. I give up. Will kept scooting away from Thomas, screaming "don't bite me brother" (yep, T's found a way to strike back), and Thomas was interested in everything but my camera.



I knew a smile was in there.

Morning in Africa

I love love love the zoo. The rest of my family doesn't mind it too much either. Even in the rain.



Snacktime in the chimp house.

Thomas looks bored here, but I promise he had fun. And look how close the zebras (and giraffes and ostriches) were! So cool.

Sleepy, hungry & wet, but still pleasant. I can learn a lot from this guy.

First Word

What ever happened to "mama"?

Still Here

Checking out the ducks nearby...
Bored? Or just hungry?
A hint of what's to come...

Ain't he cute?

He likes to "look like Daddy," and the gals at school don't mind a button-up on a blonde, blue-eyed hunk.


Though he does need a haircut. Yeah, I'm thrilled about undertaking that ordeal again. He's just now recovered from the trauma of the last one.
