Pumpkin Carving

Nick and Andrew helped us carve the pumpkin.

Dylan did not like the guts!

Sweet Brothers

Nate had to hug Cade before we left. I thought it was so sweet that he wanted to hug him!

It was too quiet in the house and here is what I found - Cade had put Nate in his swing and was swinging him. Such a sweet brother. Notice that he is still wearing the spider costume. He wore it until right before it was time to change into his other costume for Halloween.

Nursery Rhyme Parade

Wednesday morning Cade had a nursery rhyme parade at school. He wanted to wear this spider outfit even though you can't really tell that it is a spider. It is also a young toddler outfit. He was happy and that is what matters.

Cade with his best buddy, Mason. I love that smile on his face!

His older brothers were able to watch the parade too.

He finally put the hood on after the parade was over!

Cade's class. His teacher is the BEST!

The Disappearing Pictures

Here are the pictures that keep disappearing from the post below

Pumpkin Patch

We were able to go to the pumpkin patch with some friends on Tuesday. The boys had a great time. Our friends tried to find a pumpkin but there were very few to choose from and the ones remaining had "issues". They decided to stop by Wal-Mart on their way home. Luckily some friends had already given us a pumpkin.

Nate was thrilled to find "Bobs"

A Day at the Pumpkin Patch

Pumpkin Patch Pictures

It was really too bright out to get good pictures.

Cade is fascinated/obsessed with ghosts so he loved being one for a picture

Pumpkin Patch

Isn't this tree so cool

Nate looks seriously upset to be in "jail"

More Pumpkin Patch

Nate normally is not afraid to come down but he got to the top and all these big kids kept cutting in front of him and bouncing him all around. Cade was finally able to get him down

Going on a hayride

Special Time with Nate

While Cade is in Museum School, Nate and I have a couple of hours to hang out. Since the zoo is so close to Museum School, we often go hang out at the zoo together. Nate loves having Mommy all to himself. We always have fun!

Last time we went to the zoo Nate wanted nothing to do with feeding the birds. This time, he had a great time feeding the birds. The picture below is what happened when mean mommy would not buy a 4th stick for him to feed the birds. "Nother one, Mama. Nother one."
