Halloween

Trick Or Treat!

Cora was a bumble bee and Grady was Percy. He actually wore the get-up for about ten minutes, maybe less.
Hay ride trick or treating, fun, different. The Rivers Reach Neighborhood really pulls together for a good time!
The Kids loved it and Percy got a free ride too! I thought I was gonna have to carry it all night.

We put GMan in his Halloween shirt so he was at least "dressed up" a bit. Good thing Mark thought to bring it along.

The Making of Percy... and No, He didn't really wear it. ***Sigh***

Siblings and Smiles

Smiley girl.
CBird is now 8 weeks old and some. She is trying to sit up and roll over all ready! She is a great nurser and a good sleeper.
GMan loves to make cookies, brownies and cakes - mostly for the batter and dough I think.
I explained to GMan he had to look for the faces when he took pictures and hold the camera still. He took a few nice shots this morning.

Boone Hall

Some Gabriels Go Pumpkin Picking.
Boonehall Pumpkin Patch is rotting because of all the rains but we managed to find a few pumpkins and alot of stinky rotting ones.


GMan "reading" his new coloring book, Ty and Ta-ran and Mark
trying out some tractors.

CBird all snug slept the whole time... in our lovely Moby Wrap.



GMan got his turn in the wrap too, we are practicing how to wrap 30lbs onto my back in a modified rucksack carry.
Above, my view when CBird sleeps in the Moby. Below one of many moments of my kids goofing with each other on the couch. Soon enough CBird just isn't going to sit still for this... she loves doing sit ups and can pull her self up to a near 45 degree angle with her stomach muscles. CBird lights up when GMan talks with her and entertains her, so the fascination and adoration seems to be mutual.
Sometimes being the older brother wears GMan out.
