Fall

Here are some cute Fall pictures.

Madeleine wanted Benjamin to get out of the wheelbarrow.

Madeleine had lots of fun helping Daddy rake the leaves. After a couple of hours of raking Paul went and bought a leaf blower!

Still helping

Such a cutie!

Aquarium

We went to the Aquarium on Monday with my mom, Sarah, Elizabeth, Katharine, and Benjamin. It was a lot of fun and the kids really seemed to like seeing all of the fish. I don't really have any good pictures but thought I would post a few anyway.

Looking at the boats on the way back to the ferry boat.

Counting

Someone taught Madeleine how to count to ten! The other day I was counting something and stopped at 7 and then she said 8. I had no idea she knew any number above three. Then we counted to ten together and since then she has been counting by herself. She sometimes forgets number 7.

Lots of Toddlers

Benjamin and Katharine came over last weekend for a sleepover. It was a lot of fun having them over. Madeleine really enjoyed playing with them.

We spent a lot of time at the playground.

Checking out the water on the slide.

Madeleine loves to climb.

Katharine loved the slide!

Benjamin loved the swing.

Playing with crayons

Brothers!

Byron met his half brother Grady over the weekend. My friend Kiersten got her dog from the same breeder and they have the same mother. They are both a little crazy but very loving and sweet. They sort of look alike but Grady was much cleaner so it was hard to tell. The pictures aren't great because it is really hard to get a picture of two hyperactive dogs.

Katharine's Party

Katharine had her 3rd birthday party on Saturday at an indoor playground.

All of the kids had a really good time.

Benjamin saw Paul sitting on the floor and went up to him and gave him a hug.

It was really cute.

I wish I knew what they were talking about.

They were holding hands at one point. It was so cute.

Cake!Yummy!
