Our C Man
C Chit Chat:
We were getting in the car to go somewhere a couple of months ago and our oldest son says:
"Do you know why it's sunny? Because Jesus is the light."
Melt my heart! He sure is. And you, my little C man, are a light in our lives.
------------------------------
Here is our C Man 'reading' a book titled, Dot The Firedog. I say 'reading' because he is reciting the book from memory after only having it read to him a handful of times!
Don't you just love the throat clearing before he starts reading?!

Baby P
Our Baby P will be 14 months old this week. Wow! About 1 year ago, he looked like this: 
These precious little babies change so much in such a short amount of time. Baby P does new things all the time. I have a journal where I try and keep track of new things our boys do and the great, funny things they say.
Here is what Baby P is up to these days. Walks fast! He is always on the go.
He loves to play outside. His favorite things to do outside include collecting acorns and rocks, playing with dirt and playing with balls.
His dancing consists of bopping up and down while standing.
His vocabulary includes "Uh oh" and that's about it. But don't be fooled. He's very vocal and gets his point across! He also understands so much, like when we tell him it's time to eat, get your shoes, give that to (insert name), clean your hands and much more.
He screams when he's mad. It's an "AAAGH, AAAGH, AAAGH" kind of screaming.
Roars for just about every animal noise. For example, he'll pick up a toy shark and say "arrr."
He's done such cute, smart things like: taken some dirty clothes out of his brothers' hamper, walk from their room to his and put said clothes in his hamper and taken his socks off and put them in our shoe basket by the front door.
One day, I asked Baby P if he had poo poo in his diaper. (I knew he did by the all too familiar odor coming from his bottom.) He grabbed his clothes and tugged on them. Then, he went over to the diaper box in the living room and took out the wipes. When I came over to him, I asked him to lie down so I could change his diaper and he did! Of course, it seems that more times than not it's a battle to change the boy's diaper. He's just too busy to be still long enough for a diaper change.
One molar has come through on the bottom right and #2 is on it's way.
Sometimes when one of his big brothers is crying, he'll make a sad face in imitation of their misery.
He'll 'clean' his hands by rubbing them together.
He likes to point to things that he find interesting and say "Oh!"
The boy does not like milk!
Typically takes 2 naps and sleeps from about 7:30 p.m. to 7:30 a.m.
Know where his eyes, nose and mouth are.
Weighs about 20 pounds and is now facing front in his car seat.
And something we discovered this weekend...He does not like it when husband and I hug! He comes over and screams and pulls on my clothes.
Baby P certainly has his own wonderful, exciting personality! What a joy he is...that is when he's not screaming at me because I'm hugging his Daddy. :)
Love you Baby P!!!

costumes and candy
The boys were pretty excited about Halloween this year. Well it's mainly our C man, since he has formed memories of previous years and is now able to really look forward to these fun happenings.
----------
On Halloween, we went over to my parents' neighborhood and enjoyed an evening of trick-or-treating with my mom, dad, brother and sis-in-law. We even got to go on a hayride hosted by one of the neighbors!
Mmmmm, L enjoying some of his candy.
Until next year!
The Friday before Halloween, C had his Fall parade and party at his preschool. He had so much fun! And I just love watching him in that context.
For the parade, all the kids wear their costumes and, well, parade around as excited moms, dads, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and family pets watch. Okay well, it's mainly parents and grandparents. :)
It is too cute!!!

pumpkin patch
A couple of weeks ago, we took advantage of our gorgeous Fall weather and took the boys to the pumpkin patch.
Here is a picture of all 3 boys...before we gave Baby P a pumpkin to hold.
And after:
That's better. :)
Brothers checking out the pumpkins:
C with his class monkey friend, Marvy. (Marvelous the Monkey takes turns coming home with his preschool friends for a few days at a time.)
L, actually sitting still and smiling for me:
And last, but certainly not least, Baby P having fun exploring the pumpkin patch:
Three little pumpkins for our three little pumpkins:
----------
Then, a few days later the big boys and Daddy carved our big pumpkin. As you can see from L's facial expression, he thought the inside of the pumpkin what a bit gross. Oh, and imagine him saying "Ewwwww! Gross! Stinks!"
Hmmm, maybe he'll hang in there with the pumpkin carving.
Ummm, nope.
He left the scene of the pumpkin carving soon after that last picture.
----------
L enjoyed painting his little pumpkin a whole lot more than having to touch and smell the innards of the large one. C also painted his and then generously volunteered to paint Baby P's. We obliged and let him do so...you know, since Baby P would probably still rather taste the paints than actually paint with them.
And here you have the results of the carving and painting...drum roll please...Okay it's not that exciting, just thought I'd try my hand at a little humor.
