I’ve learning there’s not much time for this blogging thing… surprise, surprise! 🙂 So I’m catching up a bit. Last week we had a few funny moments. Sometimes it’s the simplest things that amuse the boyz…
One morning when Jim drove Carter to the bus stop, sweet Kiefer says “I wish I could go to school in the dark….” as he wistfully looked out the window watching his brother and Daddy-o drive away. I’m fairly certain he won’t always feel that way!
Griffin is really getting into books and if you ever can’t find him, he’s usually upstairs reading… here he is a few times caught reading!
Doing the “Prilly Pose”
Fletcher is rolling around now… here he is on the playmat with his blankie wrapped around his head like a turban because he’s been twisting around so much!
And the best after school activity yet! They decided one day that they wanted to wash their blankies and “Ellie” spelled L-E (I’m told) in their own wash load so they could watch them whirl and spin. It was 10 minutes of peace and quiet for me, so I gladly accepted! Hilarious! Who knew the spin cycle could be so entertaining?
Our pumpkins that we carved a few weeks ago imploded… so we started over. Here are our four little pumpkins carving their punkins… no injuries, either. It was a success! (In case you wondered it’s hard to make a mean face as requested by Kiefer)
Ice cream scoops are good at getting the guck out!
Even Fletcher was into it…
Carter wanted to keep all the seeds to plant more pumpkins… I did too, but it’s easier to buy seeds next spring!
Then it cracked me up when they made this five hitch wagon get up in the driveway. They amused themselves for quite sometime with this activity! And then there’s Kiefer, always with his blankie in tow- like Linus.
note the red flag on the very back…
Linus… I mean Kiefer.
And then we had to practice trick or treating – with treats, of course.
Next stop is the real deal!
