Fall 2010

Oliver turned 5 months old.  He continues to grow longer but can not seem to gain any weight.  His doctor is not worried so I'm not too concerned but it is funny to see him next to babies that are 3-4 months younger than him and have them look huge compared to him.  For his five month birthday I finally packed all the newborn clothes away as they were starting to get snug on him. 


5 months old and still only 10 pounds



Joseph often climbs into bed with Oliver.  When I found Joseph he said "look mom I reading walliver a story"
So stinkin' cute I hope they stay best friends for a long time.

We won tickets to see the CO Rapids (soccer team) play.  The game was fun but the best part was we each got a slanket!!!  Way better than a snuggie

I guess if baseball doesn't work out maybe hockey will. 

We went and fed the ducks and geese the other day.  Joseph loved it and laugh every time the bread got snatched from his hand.  Turns out even the ducks in Highlands Ranch are snobby, some of our bread was so moldy even they wouldn't eat it.


 Oliver watched the ducks with interest for a while then decided to take a nap.

 Joe Joe and No No + sand & water = two cute and messy boys



 We went to a little corn maze on Main Street in Parker with Carol, Noah & Lola.  Joseph had a blast playing in the hay and was entertained for over a hour.  Well worth the drive out to Parker.

Watch out Noah!!

Looking for Halloween costumes

We found this at Goodwill and I asked Joseph if he wanted to try it on expecting him to say no.  But he tried it one and was mad when we made him take it off.

Joseph held his cinnamon roll and told me to take his picture.  Best $0.99 roll we've ever had.

That's right I took a picture during church

 We went to our last Rockies game of the year on Joseph's 3rd Birthday.  The swag afterwards was a little lame but it was still fun. It was a little sad eating my last cheese steak sandwich and saying goodbye to all the regulars and our usher Linda. Forgot to take any pictures at the game but here's what Joseph looked like on his way home

Joseph turned 3 on September 29th.  I can't believe how fast time is going.  We went to the Rockies game then came home and met Jared for dinner at The White Chocolate Grill.  We had big plans for Joseph's birthday but didn't get much done.  Life just got the better of us but the good news is Jared didn't lose his job this year a first for Joseph's birthday week.    

Joseph is up to 30 pounds!!!! 

We celebrated his birthday with my family during our monthly family dinner. My mom made this awesome train cake. Joseph loved it and still talks about it.




 We went to Yogurtland many many times. My current favorite is pumpkin pie & cheesecake mixed.

We also went to Andy & Kristen's Wedding.  Fun was had by all and Joseph found himself a girlfriend.

The excitement was too much of Oliver to handle

I have no idea what 3 year old stuck his finger in the cake and then hide behind the dessert table.

I swear his finger is not about to get inserted in the cake



 Joseph has decided clothing is optional.  I often find myself saying "Joseph put some clothes on so I can take your picture without being reported to social services.   At least he decided to wear boots for this picture.
