Time flies when you are having fun or at least that's the way the saying goes, right? It seems like time is passing us by at a breakneck speed! I swear it was only yesterday that Sawyer was crawling and now he can leap over small buildings! The Lego kind, that is!
Argh! As I'm typing, thinking Sawyer is snug in his bed about to fall asleep for him nap, he is knocking on his door! YIKES! Two nights ago, he discovered he can climb in and out of his crib...wasn't he just crawling yesterday???
Now I am back...Sawyer isn't going to take his nap anytime soon, so the 3 or 4 blog posts I wanted to catch up on and the photobook I am procrastinating doing for a Christmas gift isn't likely to get done either. Oh bother!
But who can help lovin' this little boy to pieces?
Inevitably, most days the ice cream van comes down the street...I know I could say no, but what's the fun and indulgence in always saying no to your kids? Pfft, that's daddy's job! :)
This is the little neighbor kid enjoying his ice cream, too.
I found another bike carrier in the trash one day and Matt pumped up the tires and it's good as new! Now I can make Quinton tow his little brother!
One of the reasons October was so busy was that quinton had fall soccer league going on and Matt was coaching. It was a very interesting league with some wacky rules for games but Matt managed to make it fun for all of the kids!
Quinton and his friend, Cameron. She played on his spring soccer league for the first time and she enjoyed it so much (and was so good) that she dropped out of dance to keep plaing soccer in the fall!
Although he isn't officially on a soccer team, we like to dress him like he is! Sawyer WISHES he could go and play with Quinton's team...he's always running onto the field the second I take my eyes off of him!
We also made it to the county fair in October! It was so fun to see Quinton try a few of the bigger kid rides. My only beef with the fair is that it's so freaking expensive! We went on a night where admission was only $1 per person but when you get inside, everything is so darn expensive! Jeez!
Quinton ALWAYS loves the bungee ride. He's good at flipping, too.
Look at the sweet angelic face. You would never know that behind these sparkling blue eyes is the mind of genius destroyer! Seriously, he can undo just about anything that I just did in a matter of seconds! I love him, though!
Yep, these were the BAG of pecans we picked from a friends' yard...
And last but not least, Halloween! Christmas and Halloween are my two favorite holidays to decorate for and this year was fun! We did Angry Bird pumpkins!
Plus, for like the first time ever, we ALL dressed up. Even Matt and me! This rarely happens cause I am usually so busy, I forget to do a costume! Since Halloween fell on a school day this year, I even rode my bike to school to pick up Quinton with this outfit on!
Halloween night trick-or-treating. Seriously, the candy haul these guys brought home was epic!!!
And that's it for October, folks.
