Tricks and Treats with Great Grandma Evie

Tonight we went to Great Grandma Evie's condo, they do a Halloween party for all of the senior's grand/great grand kids. We dressed both of the boys up in their costumes and drove over to see her.  John was not to sure about his costume- we had to bribe him to keep it on using candy corn. (Our first time really bribing him... it worked like a charm...not a proud parenting moment....) 

John, Ryan and Great Grandma Evie.  John is eating candy- we will be doing lots of extra brushing tonight! :)

John had an "ah-ha" moment.  All of the sudden he figured it out- at each door you get more candy!  He had so much fun!! :D

John and Stephen, or should I say our Lion and Frog...  So cute!!!

John found a little plastic spider, so we all were singing The Itsy Bitsy Spider. 

Great Grandma Evie with Stephen.  He was telling her lots of stories! 

I didn't get a picture of it, but John made GGEvie a picture of a pumpkin patch, it had 3 pumpkins on it and then he finger painted green vines connecting them.  It is now hanging on Evie's fridge.  :)

Great Grandma Evie gave the boys a boost to their college savings accounts for Halloween.  Thank you Grandma Evie, that was very thoughtful of you!

 

Relaxing Week

We have taken it very easy this week!  We had nothing on the calendar, no where to be but home enjoying our family!

 Nana Jana came over one morning to play with the boys- John has really been missing her! We see Nana Jana a lot, which we are thankful for, so it has been a change for John. 
Another afternoon my mom came over to hang out and play trains with John.  Grandma Mitty practiced John's Lion roar for Halloween.  I will have to post a video of his roar.... he is quite the friendly lion! haha

A fun week with Grandma and Nana!!

Stephen was doing tummy time and John wanted in on the action!

Diaper boys! We turned our heat on on Sunday night.  Well, needless to say, our boiler works!!  All of the sudden it was 75 degrees in here.  Our thermostat was pre-programed from last winter (the previous owners) to 75 degrees! WOOOF  It is now a comfortable 65 in here. :)

Ryan and I had my dad walk us through how to light and start our boiler- Thanks dad- you're the best!!

Stephen has been working on his rice cereal more- he loves it!! :D  Such a happy baby!
