October Miscellaneous

Mommy not working means more baking for Brody!

brownies...yummy!  We're kind of addicted to the Triple Chocolate Ghirardelli brownies they sell by the huge boxful at Costco

goofy boy!

playing WiiU with Daddy was Brody and Maddi's favorite pastime for most of October....
the interest level has seemed to taper off...

Brody loves him some play dough! Not Mommy's favorite activity to clean-up...but he loves it so much, what am I to do?? This he said was a lot of "boobs"...I died.

We had a great visit with Maureen, Maeve, and Max.  While Maeve was at school for the first part of the day, we played with Max, Mommies got to catch up, and we got to go take Max to his first Red Robin visit.  After lunch, we picked Maeve up and the two of these characters played so well together until it was time for us to hit the road.

Max is such a good, sweet, adorable little boy!

After picking Maddi up from school one afternoon, we thought we'd go try Grandpa's Soda Fountain & Ice Cream Parlor in downtown Olympia.

He loves chewing on his Taggie ribbons.

Brody trying on Maddi's hats & scarves...

and another hat with wrapping paper rolls for arms!

Mom thought she was getting ahead by buying a couple of gingerbread houses early, but that was really just a silly idea because then Brody thought it was time to make them...STAT.

Couldn't resist.

Maddi & Lily

Sibling Love.

Random Sunday morning madness.
Power Rangers, hockey sticks, swords, and balls.

fresh haircut!
Daddy was there to help out, but Brody did such a good job all on his own.  He didn't even need to sit on Daddy's lap this time.

all tuckered.

Got sick in the car on this morning, so Mommy needed to wash out his carseat and Daddy had the spare in his car at work, so all we had when it was time to go pick Maddi up was an extra booster seat.  He looked like such a big boy!
