Birthday Fun!

Caleb had his first ever "all about me birthday" and it was a success!  He has been opening presents for the past few days, ending with ours and Reagan's tonight.  This morning he was greeted by a ton of Happy Birthday's.  His first snack was a Halloween pumpkin followed by chocolate chip pancakes.  Then a quick trip to the doctor for his ear infection, no worries, just need some drops for a week.

Superman motorcycle picked out from Reagan - very cute

Caleb got to be up front in chapel for his birthday.  We all went to Chick-Fil-A for lunch, where he ate ice cream.  We then went to Publix for him to get his balloon (Superman), a candle, and his birthday dessert (donuts).

He had chicken strips and mac-n-cheese for dinner, then followed by his birthday donut.  He has had a wonderful day and is wiped out.

The dessert

Happy Birthday song and then blowing out of candle.

Halloween Yummies

This Halloween, we've been eating candy corn and candy pumpkins; cutting pancakes into pumpkin, bat, and witch shapes; plus we made a cookie caterpillar today.  The kids will also be making sugar cookies and decorating them this week.  They have been so excited with all the yummy things :)  Here are some pics of what we have done.

Twinkle Little Star

Caleb invited each of us into his room one day to sing us Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.  This was one of the songs I used to sing to him when he was a baby, he still loves it :)

Gorgeous October

October has been a busy month!!  We've been outside almost every afternoon as the weather has started to cool off and the sky has been bright blue.  Reagan's class has had a corn cob tasting and made/tasted a pumpkin pie (she didn't like).  Caleb's class shucked corn and made pancakes in class (he ate 4).  Reagan and I have also dealt with sinus infections due to weather changes, but we are both recovered.

We went to Busch Gardens with Tyler Sullivan.  We saw the HUGE gator, the hippo swimming, the crane and big pile of dirt building a new coaster (this was the main attraction), and rode many rides in the kids area.  We've also been to MOSI (Museum of Science Industry).  The kids got to see a skeleton, which they loved, play drums, ride a skateboard (it times you), we even went into a simulated twister (in a basement).

This morning we went to the pumpkin patch for pictures and the annual gathering of a BIG pumpkin to carve, plus 2 little ones for the kids.  They had fun looking at all of them :)  Enjoy!!
