Matching...

Yes, I make my kids wear matching clothes from time to time. Probably more than most moms of boys, but its my way of compensating for the lack of cute boy clothes out there in the world.







More November and December 2011

Wow. Where did December go? I'm not sure, but here are the pics to prove that we survived it!

Peeking Behind Doors

Here is Lachlan at 12 mos, playing peek-a-boo behind the door. I added some of Bennett doing the same thing at 11 mos. No lost fingers yet!

Halloween and Lachlan's 1st Birthday

We're having a party for Lachlan in Houston Thanksgiving weekend when we can be surrounded by all his family, but we had a small celebration on the special day. We had cupcakes (I wish I could say it was his first, but Lachlan has been allowed to eat sweets WAY earlier than Bennett) and sang Happy Birthday. Lachlan loved being the center of attention and clapped along with the song. A few days before Lachlan's birthday was this other little event called Halloween, Lachlan's first Halloween. Lachlan was Yoda and Bennett picked out his Optimus Prime costume, though he hasn't seen the Transformers yet. Even cuter is that Bennett can't quite pronouce Optimus, so he dressed as Octopus Prime. Whatever. Lachlan was in bed by the time the first trick-or-treaters arrived at our house. Arty took Bennett trick-or-treating and he had a great time. We're still eating candy around here!

Slightly busy...

Life has been incredibly busy this month, but here are some pictures to hold you over until pumpkin season. Lachlan is so close to walking...mostly he takes steps to Smith, our big dog. He'd rather crawl to Mom or Dad. He is also saying "alldah" which means all done. Bennett started pre-K, so he is learning his letters and numbers at warp speed. Both kids are doing great and keeping us plenty busy, plus work is hectic for both of us. When is our next vacation???


Bennett jumping because Bennett likes to jump...off everything





The boys in their matching Elvis shirts. Bennett: "Mom, Miss Samantha said she likes this guy on my shirt."
