Halloween Treats

Instead of doing a bunch of little posts about different Halloween things we've done, I thought I'd just make one long post with some of the things we've had fun with this week.

Making, decorating and eating sugar cookies





Crazy Halloween dinner idea that I got from my amazing friend Christie.


Making spider cookies. Peyton was not interested in making it at all, just eating anything I put on his plate.


Making Jack-o-Lantern mini pizzas for dinner, with a friend

Carving Pumpkins

They definitely did not enjoy cleaning out the insides.
(my flash wasn't working in the beginning, so the pics look a little blurry. So annoying and sorry.)

The boys chose and drew the face they wanted and then used a poking tool to help carve it out. I thought it would be frustrating for all of us since every other year we've painted faces, but the boys did great and it was lots of fun!

The Pumpkin Patch

We went to a pumpkin patch last Saturday. It was the perfect weather and lots of fun. (Peyt is really asleep there but woke up soon after.)
Well, maybe a little windy...
Trey isn't so happy, he would much rather be sleeping.
Searching...


Their chosen pumpkins


The ride back
A much happier Trey

4 months

Yep, another month has gone by and I can't even believe it! Trey is such a great baby! He is so smiley and has started laughing when I kiss his neck. We sure love our baby boy!

I love his smile in this picture, even though I did a terrible job centering it. (I was paying too much attention to his smile.)
So big and handsome...
After a bath. (Even though the towel makes him look like a mini Pope or something, I can't help but smile every time I look at these pictures. He is just so stinkin' cute!)

The Next American Idol

Peyton loves singing! We always have to sing at least two songs for the opening and closing of Family Home Evening. And just today I had to sing Scripture Power with him probably ten times in a row.

So here is the cute guy singing some songs.


He knows more to this song, but this was all he showed off this time. Whoever can name the song is a winner! Not of a prize, but just consider yourself a winner! ;)


This one he goes around the house 'singing' all the time.

Wordless Wednesday
