Trip to Meet Clark

Clark at a week old

Dietrich fell asleep in my dad's lap

Atticus yelling "NO!" because he's in a bad mood

And he means it

My dad yelling "NO!" back at him -- just because he's ornery too

Atticus still yelling "No!" but trying not to laugh at my dad's teasing

Unstaged -- I came around the corner and here they were -- two peas in a pod

Making morning brownies

Atticus said he was a Brownie Monster

What happened every time Jon tried to sit down -- Play with me, Jon!

Jonathan & Rebekah
My sister was able to come for most of one day, out from Chicagoland. It was her first time to meet Clark too.

Clark & his momma Robyn

Spider Hat craft from Grandma

Sunrise the day we left

Boo!

Halloween Party

A week ago, Leah organized a Halloween Party with crafts and theme snacks and games. I don't have pictures of Atticus and Dietrich in their costumes because I want to show them for real Halloween Day. But here is Atticus with funny monster glasses Jess brought.

Dietrich missing his nap and with medicine on his face. Also with a prelude to his actual costume on his head.

Calvin as a dinosaur

Isaac as a monkey

Madeleine as a butterfly

Madeleine, Laura (Madeleine's momma), and the little girl Laura's a nanny for -- sorry her name has left my brain.

Freddie the chicken

Freddie's momma Jess (Sorry, Sammy -- I didn't get a picture of you as the bee)

Dietrich so tired getting cuddled by Jess

Making spiders to eat

Emily helping Alex

Atticus and his spider

And his candy corn guy

Snacks! Look at the scary apple teeth ones on the right.

Scary!

I know this is blurry but I love the Dietrich look it caught.
