Pumpkin Painting

Just as we did last year, we painted our pumpkins for Halloween. Well, Sophie painted pumpkins and the baby, that we now know and love as Jonah, got painted. As you can see not much has changed from last year, Sophie painted her pumpkin and well, Jonah got painted.....again, only this time he was the one doing the painting! He had such a blast he ate quite a bit of paint, but have no fear it is non-toxic. He kept squealing with delight as he painted the pumpkin, then put a little on himself, dunked his foot in the paint tray and put a brush full of paint in his mouth. Silly Boy! We had lots of laughs and even more clean up, but it was worth it for all the fun we had! You will notice there are no pictures of Sophie with the exception of the last shot which is of her hands and her fabulously painted pumpkin, the reason for this is is she is going through a, "I am not going to look at the camera" phase, not to mention she painted in her underwear to avoid paint on the clothes and I really did not want to post my 4 year old in her underwear for all the blogging world to see!

Oh The Places We Have Been..........

So my husband was kind enough to take the time out of his rather busy schedule to edit all of these lovely photos so that I could share them with all you lovely folks!

Here is a run down of what we have been up to and the many many places we have been!

****No pictures yet (soon to come), but Jonah is WALKING!!!!! He took off last week and hasn't looked back since!**********
