Happy Halloween 2008!

We had a crazy day today! The babies came to my last class (the class I have for 2 hours), then we went back to my work after Dillon's nap and saw the adults, then we went to Grandma Peggy's work, then Daddy/Grandpa Mike/Uncle Pat's work, then home for a nap.... Grandma and Grandpa G came over, then our little family of four went to Michelle's, then back home to go around our loop and then back out to visit Baba. All in all we did WAY too much. The babies are EXHAUSTED! Here's the pictures that I managed to snap in the chaos!

3/4 of Mike and Peggy's Youngest Generation

Today we had a little "play date" with six of Grandma and Grandpa H's grandbabies. We had Jarrett, Ella, Peyton, Mikey, Kayda, Dillon and a little later on Chase (unfortunately he wasn't here when I was taking all the pictures). I thought I would share some photos. It was a BEAUTIFUL day so we spent some time outside. Dillon and Kayda thoroughly enjoyed having everyone to visit.

A whole new "playground"

Dillon has decided that Kayda's bouncing zebra is great fun to play with. The only problem is that he'll stand up next to it and can't quite figure out how to get back down to crawl to the next thing he's interested in. He's getting more and more adventurous.

Today he decided that the kitchen chairs were the perfect thing to stand with and he was just hanging out under the table. Of course big sis decided that she should be under there too! After a couple of minutes Kayda decided that her chair belonged under the kitchen table, she kind of took up all the space and left Dillon feeling a little crowded and crabby.
Kayda gave me an excellent shot of her fake smile today. This picture just cracks me up!

She has such a strong personality! She has become VERY attached to her baby doll. A few days ago we went by Kentridge to visit and she showed everyone how baby can wave and "crawl" (She pretty much puts it on its stomach and pushes it). Today I finally got a picture of it!

Pumpkin carving!

Just before bath time today we carved the pumpkins. Unfortunately it wasn't as exciting as last years goo showers which Kayda produced. It was still fun!

To the Pumpkin Patch!

We went to the pumpkin patch today. Grandma and Grandpa G accompanied us and took some pictures for us and as always doted on the little ones. Here are the pictures from the pumpkin patch and hay ride. Grandma G told Kayda she could only have a pumpkin she could pick up so once we go to the ones she could lift she kept bringing more and more to the wheelbarrow.
