October

Our October activities included some fun pumpkin painting. The boys got stripped down to their skivvies (no worries, we were in the backyard) and went to town!

This is actually almost two weeks before Halloween, but I made a little vest for Wesley's Woody costume (and it wasn't the night before!) and Wesley couldn't handle trying it on without the whole ensemble. Curtis decided to join in on the fun, too. I couldn't decide if he should re-use the old lion costume or wear a cute little tiger one that my cousin sent to us. The choice was easily made after he didn't stop screaming until the tiger one was taken off of him. Wesley has since stuffed himself into it a couple of times, so it is getting some use. :)

The next pictures are from Halloween night. Curtis had a small tantrum about getting into the lion costume, but we eased him into it throughout the evening and he ended up enjoying it.

Here's a good shot of Wesley's boots that Misha and Gin-Gin contributed to the costume. He loves them and wears them for all kinds of events around the house. They'll be great for the winter, too!

Curtis went up to a few houses, but he was mostly content to ride along in the stroller and take it all in.

An attempt of a group photo at our friends' house. Some families from church got together to trick-or-treat together. It was a little chaotic with all those kids running around as you might imagine!

Don't take Owen's picture much lately, but he sure looked pretty sunning in the yard a couple of days ago. He's a good ol' dog. Such a pretty day!

We put a chalkboard up in Curtis' room a few weeks ago, and the boys think it's pretty fun. Curtis had some awesome hair on this particular morning!
