Happy Halloween

Liam enjoyed Halloween this year with his friends Cash, Riley and Kinsley!  We had a wonderful time taking them trick-or-treating.  They even caught part of the Charlie Brown special on our friends garage (thank you for having made this available for the little ones James and Kari).  We hope you had a wonderful and happy Halloween!

Also, the weekend before Halloween we went pumpkin carving at the Smiles home.  We had a great time with framily and friends!

 

 

 

Pumpkin Patch Picture 2012

Say that three times fast!  Wishing my little boy was more into the camera rather than the pumpkins, but we managed a few shots!

 

First Full Day of School

I had to post this one!  Phil started back to work in October which means that Liam went back to school.  Liam was super duper exhausted on his first day, so tired that he couldn't even eat his dinner (bless his sweet little heart)!  Liam loves his new school.  He has learned so much since starting there almost two ago.  He is very much more vocal, signs much more, and even says words like apple, banana, more, thank you, shoe, dog, door, clock and animal sounds for lion, and monkey.  We are very excited to see him developing into the sweet little boy he is today.  He loves cuddles, tickle time, and wrestling on the floor with his bestie Cash.  He loves to dance to the tunes of the "Hot Dog Song" and "Little Einstiens".  He blows kisses, gives high fives, and nods "yes" and "no". 

Phil has loved his work, and is happy to be back at work again, but still misses hanging out with his boy during the day!  We are so blessed and thankful for all that we have everday!

 

Welcome Jacob Wesley Hall

October was a fun month for us!  First we welcomed to the world my first (and well only) little nephew Jacob Wesley Hall.  He was born on October 11, 2012 (10.11.12).  :-)  He and mommy are all ok (after a bumpy delivery and a rough post delivery).  Aunt Marty and I had the pleasure of meeting him shortly after he was born.  We visited them while sweet little Jacob turned one month old!  Here are some pictures!  We are so excited you are here with us Jacob and we look forward to all our future visits together!

 

Fall Post Blog

I completely missed posting a fall blog.  Sorry guys!  September was a busy month for me (college recruiting).  But Liam had a wonderful month.  He learned how to sign please and milk this month, and still loves to read.  He has become quite the picky eater and prefers to only snack these days (versys having 'real meals').  He loves peanut butter fold overs, cheese cubes and cheerios.  He loves to chase Jack and Charlie around the house (although they might not always share in the enjoyment).  He loves to climb the furniture (ugh-oh) and loves to jump around the house.  Here are some pictures of our little munchkin!

Liam having a little fun sorting through family photos!

Here he is eating cheerios with his best bud!
