Fall is in the Air!

My camera battery died this week and I never really got around to charging it. I'm not lacking in pictures but there mostly the ones we took from our phones. Next week we have a busy week and I'm sure to have a lot of pictures to post.

I love this time of year. It makes me want to start baking. We made pumpkin bars this week.

In the mornings I wake up Spencer. My heart stopped for a minute when I walked in his room Monday morning and I didn't see him. He's back under his bed.

This is what he looks like when I get him dressed. I'm sure most people reading this are thinking I should be teaching him to get up and get himself dressed but honestly we only have a limited amount of time in the mornings and if it saves us from having an argument I will continue to dress him. I'm sure he won't let me do this when he's 10, so it works for now.

I took Easton and Nolan to Teddy Bear park with some friends this week.

We stopped at the candy store after lunch for a treat.

Easton LOVES hockey and will take any chance he can get to wear his equipment.

I also took the boys to story time at the library this week.

We stayed after for a bit to play with the puzzles and look at books.

Easton will make an obstacle course out of anything. While I folded laundry he ran back and forth about 20 times jumping over these things.

I took them to the gym that evening for toddler time. I turned to help Spencer do something and when I turned back around I found these two up to no good.

Easton got to play with a bath crayon. Needless to say Ryan was scrubbing the tub after bath time.

Nolan and Jake playing in a pot together.

Ryan took the boys to a football game Friday night. I told Easton he should dress warm and cute. I love his "new to him" coordinating outfit we bought at a friend's thrift sale.

Easton had skating lessons on Saturday. Spencer's soccer was canceled so he got to tag along to watch him skate.

Later Ryan took the older boys to Hobbs in Eau Claire to watch the Badger hockey team play.

What was supposed to be a fun evening for just Ryan and Spencer started out with a bang. As Ryan was turning left to go down a street in downtown St. Paul, he got hit by a girl coming straight down the road. The good news everyone was ok. Spencer was in the car but he sits on the other side. There was minor damage done to both cars.

I think they were still able to enjoy the game. Spencer was excited they were giving out orange hunting hats.

My Uncle Howie passed away last week unexpected. We gathered the family together on Sunday for lunch and to offer support to each other. Franny was in charge of the kids and she makes a great baby sitter!

 

Spencer was great with the Aunts. He sat and listened to them as they told him stories about when they were little.

Nolan played dress up in Grandma's halloween costumes.

The down side of letting your kids play with your phone..

Your apps get all mixed up and some even get deleted.
