The kill...

 

A few pre-halloween pics

 

Hard-working Boy

My kid makes me laugh!
He just got up from a LONG nap! (yay)
The very first thing he wanted to do was to go straight to his tool bench and pound in some pegs with his big plastic hammer. Lunch is all ready and waiting for him...but he has no interest in eating right now.
I went into his room and said "Hey Jayboy, would you like some lunch? There are some num-nums ready for you"
He shook his head and kept pounding in his pegs.

I'm sure he'll be hungry later, but until then...he's one hardworking man.

Jay & the Big Bouncy Ball

Jay loves to play with this big oversized 'beach' ball. He throws it down the hall and plays with daddy all the time.

He's just recently began to pick it up and walk with it. It looks hilarious, because he holds it up, so all you really see is a pair of chubby legs and a BIG ball. He can't really see where he's going, but he manages quite well!

Pumpkin Patch Day

This afternoon we went to Pingles to pick out some pumpkins (big one for the adults, little one for Jayboy).
It was so cold out. The wind was crazy. I was just thankful that it wasn't hailing or snowing. There weren't as many people this year as there was last year, but last year we went two days before Halloween, so it was a bit nuts :)
Jay loved it. He wanted to get down from his stroller and run around in the 'balls' (pumpkins)
They had a bunch of these murals that you could poke your head through. I remember this strawberry/corn one from when I was little.
And of course, we had to do some pumpkin pictures. He was such a good boy. He wanted to get down on the ground and play in the dirt though...
Pretty boy
I had to get a shot with me and Jay, and of course...
I insisted on getting a shot of Chris & Jay...although I really don't think either of them were in the mood at that point.

It was a great day :)

Now Jay is taking a nap because he's worn out from all the excitement :) YAY!

Take time to smell the daisies...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

I took these this afternoon while we were over at Opa-Opa's house for thanksgiving dinner. Jay loved the outdoors and he was so amazed with all the colours, the leaves and the flowers.

And this last one is on the porch...Jay wanted to sniff every flower that was in the backyard, and this was was his favourite :)

The apple doesn't fall far...

...from the tree.

And the tree is SO proud :)
