Halloween Fun

It's been a few weeks since my last post and we've been really busy. Halloween was very fun for us this year. Since Aidan is almost 3 he finally got the point of trick-or-treating and really loved it. It was also Colin's 1st Halloween, so that was exciting too:) Below are some pictures of the boys dressed up...which I've been meaning to post for awhile now.

Fun-filled Weekend

We had a jam packed weekend!

Friday night we took Aidan to a football game at Perry High School. It was the homecoming game, so it was packed. Our friends Sarah, Dave, & Maddy met us up there and the kids had a great time playing.

Saturday we took Colin to sign class and he is really taking to it and learning new things. We had a clam bake that evening. It was fun to have some adult time and hang out with our friends. The food was wonderful and we stayed until 2am!

Sunday we took the boys out to Kirtland to a Halloween Fest. Aidan got to trick-or-treat and decorate a pumpkin. It was very HOT, so Colin was a little fussy and didn't get to wear his costume long. He went as a skunk and the costume is very heavy and furry. Aidan is a pirate and was SO cute and looked great.

Pumpkin Picking!

I thought I'd post a few pics of our pumpkins and pumpkin picking. Every year we go to Patterson's Fruit Farm and it's so much fun.

Update on the boys!

So the boys continue to grow and amaze us daily.

Colin said his 1st word on Sunday, which happened to be "dada." He is also very close to crawling. He gets on all fours and moves a step or two before falling. I think within the next week he's really going to be moving.

Aidan learned how to ride his tricycle and can put on his socks and shoes. He is very proud of both of these accomplishments. We also go to a weekly story/craft time at Hawkin School. He loves it there(and so do I). We will be going to the open house at the end of month and hope to get him into Preschool there next year. It's an amazing school with a lot to offer for him.

The next few weeks are going to be very busy ones. We have a lot of Halloween fun planned for the boys and some adult parties for mommy and daddy:) I can't believe how close we are to Halloween already. Aidan is going to be a Pirate and Colin is a Skunk. Both look so cute in their outfits.

Chicago Trip

I am back from Chicago and we had a wonderful time. The food and shopping were amazing and the concert brought back a ton of great memories. It was nice to get away but I missed Kevin and the boys and was ready to come home on Sunday. He had a great weekend with them and we all went to a family party Sunday afternoon.

The first picture is the view from the apartment we stayed at on Michigan Ave and the 2nd picture is all 6 of us girls out on Friday night.

My First Weekend Away

I am leaving for a ladies only weekend tomorrow morning. It will be my first weekend away by myself since I met Kevin! I am going to Chicago with 5 other girls to enjoy some shopping, dining and time away. Kevin will be with the boys all weekend by himself. It will be a first for both of us, but I am looking forward to getting away. I have the house in order, so hopefully things will go smoothly. I'll post some pics once I get back:)
