PUMPKIN PATCH

..

We had a blast at the St Augustine Pumpkin Patch. This was so much better than last year's experience. Poppa and I found the best pumpkin of the batch, we were upset when another couple picked it up. After a few minutes, they dropped it and we quickly picked it up and went to check out!

ELMO GROWS UP!

BOO AT THE ZOO

I have heard about Boo at the Zoo for years. I couldn't wait until Noah turned old enough to go. We gathered up Lilly and fam and my own and headed off to the amazing trick or treat fest at the Audubon Zoo.

It was adorable Noah dressed up as Bob the Builder (of course) and Bob came too! I bought Bob a Halloween costume too! Lilly (Minnie Mouse) and Noah (Bob) looked adorable! Until we entered the gates to begin out good time....

YEAP!!! Noah had a big boy accident. Thank goodness for a change of clothes because we needed to do a whole wardrobe change. (that is why you will notice him in a different outfit)

He had a blast anyway!




This is baby Griffin, Noah and Lilly posing in front of the huge elephant (I promise it is behind them!)











Noah really got the hang of opening his bag and saying "pitk o pete" (aka: Trick or Treat!)

VISITING JESUS

RIP: Nemo2 and Nemo3
We woke up this morning with both Nemo2 and Nemo3 belly up in the bowl. We both knew that free goldfish were not going to last, but it was still sad. All morning, I tried to distract Noah from the fish bowl. Ike and I driving into work came up with exactly what we were going to say to Noah when he asks. We came up with "they went to visit their parents" "they went out shopping", then Ike looked at me and smiled, we are going to tell Noah that Nemo2 and 3 went to visit Jesus. (simply put!)

He hasnt asked yet....I will let you know.

WELCOME TO THE FAMILY!

Yes, Ike and I are new Grandparents??!! (if you have been following...) Noah won 3 gold fish at the St. Ann fair a few weeks ago. While I was working this weekend, Noah and Poppa went to the fish store to pick them out. Noah calls them Nemo1 Nemo2 Nemo3! Noah says that Nemo is his friend. He enjoys playing with them after school.

Below is my favorite one, I will never again be able to catch all three fish coming up for air at the exact same time!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY UNCLE WES AND AUNT KATHY!

Bob sang Happy Birthday to Aunt Kathy and then said cheeese for the camera!

Uncle Wesley and Noah playing around the hotel room

yummmmm......Aunt Kathy let Noah dive into their birthday cake (let me say it the other way...it was 7pm and he kept eating and eating and eating. Noah was sooooo hyper!)

WHOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO, SUCCESS

Be still my heart, Ike and Noah came and picked me up from work today. I love hearing how the boys days' are during the drive home.

Today, Noah had on a hat that he made with an eye on it (not really sure what it was to him it was HIS EYE!) Then Poppa Ike told me about his day, I looked back at Noah watching his DVD and noticed that he was wearing the same shorts I put on him this morning.

SUCCCCCCCCCCESSSSSSSSSSSSS! Noah went the entire day at school with no potty accidents in his underwear. I am so excited! He did get a special dessert tonight in celebration.

(thanks Karyn and Hay Hay for the encouragement!)
