Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!

We had a full day of family, fun, and food.

Will made us all a special sign on his chalkboard to commemorate the occasion (seriously, I think his penmanship is better than mine)

And here I am with my two favorite turkeys!

And of course, what you do for one child (pottery to memorialize each and every first holiday) you must do for all...

Will enjoyed his Thanksgiving, picking through all the food like a little bird, pretending to be 'full', then wolfing down an enormous brownie which he specifically requested to be made by Nana Rosie.

John on the other hand plowed through a healthy portion of sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, rolls, and maybe even tried a little bit of brownie himself.  He became so excited when the feast was set at the table he started screaming for food while Papa Max tried to say grace.  

This kid is an EATER, weighing in at only 9lbs less than Will!

And Jude slept through the entire event :)

Hope you all had a fabulous turkey day!

Rewind One Month

Rewind one month

...I'm still in DC

...Billy is in charge of Johnny B's 9 month photo shoot

...And from over 1,000 miles away I begin to stress that it is going to be a disaster

But...

It wasn't!  It was fab.

Here are WAY TOO many pictures to prove it!

Great job Billy!

John at TEN MONTHS OLD!

John is TEN months old today!

To sum up his monthly status - he is an absolute menace haha!  

He walks around so fast and gets into EVERYTHING

He is climbing stairs up to our second floor with ease

He is eating like crazy and his new favorite is white cheddar cheese

He isn't happy unless he has his snoopy golf club in his hands

His personality is really starting to shine

He loves being chased by us

He chatters 'DaDa' and some other baby consonants

He is just over 21 lbs and wears size 2T clothes

He has been getting out and about quite a bit lately too with Nana Julie and Papa Dave...

And has begun doing a lot of silly things around the house...

And he is still working on getting his next teeth, he already has four and a few more are starting to poke through...he GRINDS and GRINDS his teeth constantly.

Having said that...here is the monthly comparison.

Halloween Homecoming!

Sandy tried as hard as she could to keep me from my boys...but with a little bit of luck, I was able to get home just in time to carve pumpkins and celebrate Halloween!  It was a very very busy afternoon with the boys!  

I love how Will is old enough to decide what he wants to be for Halloween, yet John is at the mercy of me and the costume of my choosing lol.

So without further ado, here is the fastest and pudgiest Halloween pair ever (and of course their pumpkins)!

Happy Halloween!
