Oh, the Love!

From the time Anna came home, the love between the two of them has only grown! She adores him and he loves it! Which only makes him love her more! Can you feel the love???

Standing Ta11

Today marks 11 months for Anna! And her newest trick is....


STANDING TALL!She also enjoys her books, her dolls, giving hugs and talking up a storm! She still loves to eat turkey, mozzarella cheese, bread and raisins. Brice walked about a week after he turned 11 months but I think she still has a couple of weeks. We shall see!

Hilarious Hair Day

In honor of the letter "H", Brice had hilarious hair day at school today. I went up to the school to help with some shirts for the Thanksgiving Program and got to see all of the kids hair. Quite entertaining. Brice did enjoy having his hair crazy for the day. As we all know, he is very straight laced so this was a little out of the box for him!

Sunday Snapshots

This past week Brice came to me and asked me why his camera wouldn't take any pictures. I figured it was the batteries. I changed them but that didn't solve the problem. So, I then looked and discovered he had taken almost 400 pictures! I told him we were going to have to download them to the computer. What fun it has been going through them! So, for lack of better posts, I'm going to try and do "Sunday Snapshots" from Brice and post a few of his pictures every Sunday. They are in no particular order but he has accumulated these for almost a full year now. I love that he took them because it is like viewing life through his perspective. Although I probably won't include any, there were plenty of me nursing Anna last year! It is like taking a trip down memory lane though!

Pi in the bumbo seat!
I think Anna is probably about three or four months here.

So tiny and me in my PJ's. Either it was a long night or we were just taking it easy. Not sure if she had already gotten sick at this point.

Bitsy Bear

This past Monday, a friend came home with Brice. Her name is Bitsy Bear. She comes to Brice's classroom everyday and "talks" to them. She is a puppet and Brice just loves her! He has been talking about bringing her home since the Open House at school when he found out this would be happening. This week Brice is "Family of the Week" which I'm sure he loves because they get to talk about him and his family all week. So Bitsy came home with Brice on Monday and spent the night Tuesday as well. We treated her well and I kept a journal of everything she did. Below, you will see pictures of Bitsy Bear at the stuffed animal party! Oh and Pi did well, no jealousy issues!

Halloween Season Concluded

So, our Halloween Season was a success!! On Thursday we had Brice's school party complete with a hayride, pumpkin "patch" and trick or treating around the school. Anna was good as gold while she was pushed around in her stroller observing all the activities. She fell asleep immediately when I put her in the car to head home. Poor girl was exhausted! Brice enjoyed showing me all of the Halloween projects he made.

Before he picked this pumpkin, he said, "I won't get one because I already have one at home." I told him he could pick one out for Anna, he thought that was neat.

Justin's awesome carving job

Our new pet!

Anna was brought back to the house a little early because of the rain. She then helped Grandma and Grandad hand out candy and waved "bye-bye" to everyone as they left!

S.U.G.A.R!!!!!

This was probably the highlight of the evening. Aunt Blaire found this at Target and brought it to Brice. After he was done trick or treating he would follow me to the door to hand out candy. He wouldn't say a word, just move around the doorway and peer out into the kids faces. It was hilarious and some of the kids were not too sure of him! He is still playing with it now and I have a feeling it will take a while for him to let me put it away. Brice had the BEST time trick or treating and enjoyed Halloween immensely! And that concludes the Halloween Season!
