Happy Halloween

Above are some pictures of Jake and Lucy checking out all the goodies Jake got from his Halloween party at school today.  His whole class got to dress up and go trick-or-treating from room to room.  He was the cutest little police officer you have ever seen:

Tonight we'll go trick-or-treating around the neighborhood (I'll add another blog of those pictures)!  Happy Halloween!!

Pumpkins

Ok.....so, Jake agreed to let me take some pictures of the two of them by the pumpkins (from the inside of the house though)!  Probably not a bad idea anyways, since it was hard to get Lucy to sit still on the front steps!   These turned out pretty cute:

Guess it's time to start raking!  Notice in the picture below, Lucy's top side tooth is starting to come down before the other middle one (which is actually in the process of breaking through itself):

 They both went straight for the red car after the pumpkin pictures (guess that was a little more fun)! 

BBQ Festival

 Here are some pictures of us at the Lexington Barbeque Festival yesterday.  Very fun, great barbeque!

 And below is the one and only picture I took today of the kids during Boo at the Zoo:

Fun, fun, fun-  it is shaping up to be a very busy fall so far!!

Fall

So, I was trying to get Jake to join in the pictures above with the pumpkins...but he wasn't having it!  Maybe I'll try to sneak some in before we carve them for Halloween!!

Almost Walking!

Above are some pictures of me walking around the house with Lucy over the weekend.  She actually purposefully let go for the first time and started taking some steps on her own on Friday night.  She continued to take more steps on her own throughout the weekend, which was very exciting!  She is actually doing what Jake was doing when I first called it that he was walking.  And then it seemed to take him a couple more weeks before he really had it down on his own.  So, I am sure it will be the same for her!  Below, are some pictures of her playing yesterday.  As you can see from the last picture, I think she was walking back and forth from the table to the car:

Fall Festival

 Above is one excited little kiddo on his way to the parade (Friday night) that starts off the Fall Festival, where we had fun all weekend long!  Below is one silly picture I took while we were at the parade:

 And here we are on Saturday.  First stop, bounce town...

 Some pics of us with Lucy while Jake was busy bouncing:

 There was a great turn out this year as usual.  It is always so much fun with all the art vendors and fun stuff for the kids to do.  Saturday was especially great b/c the weather was so nice:

 Here we are during our ice cream break:

 Love this picture (twins):

 I took the kids back on Sunday for a quick bounce session for Jake.  The weather was much, much colder- so we didn't stay for long (but of course, we still had so much fun):

Another great year at the Fall Festival.  I was very pregnant with Lucy at the last one, so it was neat to see her (almost walking) and having so much fun at this one!  I can't believe it has almost been one year :)  And, Jake had a blast again this year!!  It will be neat to watch both of them bouncing at the next one!!!
