Trick or Treat

Trick or Treat was Saturday in Marion. Jack was not into it at all at first, but eventually warmed up to the idea of getting candy from houses and went with it for a while. Maddie came along for the ride.
Jack and Alyssa after trick or treating waiting for the kiddie parade to start.

Jack went as Sully from Monsters Inc. It's all he's talked about for several months, but when his costume came this last week he wanted nothing to do with it - turns out he was actually scared of it. He put on a happy face for most of it though - and it was really warm, so that probably helped.


Waiting for the parade...however once it got started, she clonked out - not even the firetrucks or semis woke her up - too much fresh air, I guess.


7 Months


Maddie is now 7 months old! Time flies when you're having fun (or something like fun anyway)...This picture pretty much sums up everything she wants to do now - stand - she might be an early walker like her brother...which means all the owies are starting - yippee! She now weighs 21 1/2 pounds and is 29" tall. We have officially broken out 12 month clothing. And she finally stopped only babbling "dadadadadada" and just started with the "mamamamamama'S" - too cute!

It's a Miracle!

Jack's Sunday School class was scheduled to sing songs in church today and we thought for sure that would NEVER in a million years happen - Jack is not really the singing type, particularly in Sunday School. Our Pastor even caught us on the way in and said she didn't think it would happen, but....it did - and it was hilarious. I only taped a few seconds of it but he and the girl to the left were having a little attention competition up there - they were jumping up and down on the steps, etc. It was too funny! Sorry about it being sideways - forgot while I was taping it that I can't rotate it on the computer.

For some reason my computer is not accepting my pictures on blogspot, so here's the other video I taped today - Maddie's first attempt at the gerber puffs. Jack could've eaten these for every meal - she acts like we're feeding her poison.

Party


She's wiped just from looking at these....

Saturday night we went up north without the kiddies to have some fun...some of us had a little too much fun...


I don't really remember why this was necessary...but it was funny...



Tammie - having a blast!











This was pretty much the end of the night...can you tell?



Apparently it didn't just tire us out though....Jack and Maddie were pooped the next day. See first picture too :)















1st Tooth!!!

On 10/7, Maddie's first tooth popped up!!
