it's a bird, it's a plane...

... it's SUUUUU-PER WILLIAM!







pumpkin-head and dragon-head







Jeopardy - boogers category

Let's play Jeopardy:

the answer is : "the result of a child licking the black icing off the freshly made pumpkin cookies and getting it up his nose, then waking up the next morning with a runny nose from the aforementioned black icing nostril"

the question is: "What are black boogers?"



Do you see the black icing up his nostril? This was the night before, immediately post-cookie licking.
Who could have predicted we would be greeted by black boogers in the morning?!

yeah, we did it too...

... seems like the new "do-it-or-you're-a-bad-parent" thing to do is a trip to the pumpkin patch before Halloween. Oh yeah, we went. With our 2-WEEK-OLD BABY! (actually, it went pretty well)

A visual (and slightly verbal) summary for your pleasure

Ryan is definitely a little chunkier thank William was (thank goodness!) but I am daily experiencing a little deja vu!



first bath

It became quite the family affair.

Contrary to this first picture, Ryan actually mellowed out and just hung out while I wiped him down!


We have been taking LOTS of pictures lately! Will has found a baby toy that we put in Ryan's room and now busts it out whenever he sees lots of pictures being made.


All wrapped up after the bath


and 'cause the black and white version is super-cute too!

yard work

Will has finally decided he is going to be BFFs with his daddy! He uses his push-popper toy thing as his mower. This, of course, lasted about 5 minutes until he got bored and realized that mowing the yard is not that glamorous!
