Mini-appelsauce







Hello again.



Well some new milestones to report to you all. I have mastered a couple of new 5-sylable words that I would like to share with you. Minneappolis started out as mini-applesauce, but we had it mastered by the end of our trip to visit the Dubuc family. Uncle Deitan graduated from the police academy down there so we suprised him by flying down for his graduation. He ended up suprising us by walking in while we were having lunch when he was supposed to be at work... grrrr...



My other new 5 sylable word is hippopotamus. Dad took me to "Donalds" for lunch one day and they gave me the Madagascar Hippopotamus. Meanwhile Micah is holding steady with 8 teeth, he is sitting up and almost crawling. Like me, he incorporates rolling into his crawling/inching along. Mom can get him to say "da-da" but he doesn't know what it means. Mom says that she is teaching him Da-da first because I say mamma too much so now she got smart.

HALLOWEEN!!!

Pumpkins for sale... cheap...Uncle Rodney from Montreal...

Uncle Stew from Montreal via.. Florida
Grandpa Ed came and played. Elijah tired him out pretty good.

Uncle Stew again.


It is a horse's .... booty... Elijah had a blast at the kid's carnival at church. The little cowboy participated in all the events, and as you can see he threw the beanbag from a great distance... not exactly a quarterback... Our red-hot chilli pepper


Cutest veggie in the fridge. We lent this to our neighbor and she sent it in to the paper and they published her kid's picture...


Our smiling horseman. Daddy called him the Share-Riff.


We found this pumpkin in the pumpkin patch and brought it home with us... He stopped shoppers coming into the store he was so cute...

Here it is... the highly anticipated halloween fashion show... Micah had five costume changes in total, a result in accumulated costumes that were once Elijah's. Micah shared his costumes with all the new babies in our cul de sac and they loved them. The boys were very well behaved in spite of having their schedule thrown out the window and Elijah had some sugar for a change. The night before we had the Montreal Alouettes over for dinner and the boys got to see there Uncle's from the East.

Fall Photos...













Greetings to you all and happy fall!
The following photos are our fall family photos, and the boys' outfits are compliments of the lovely Malveaux family (GO BOMBERS!!). We caught the last of the leaves as they were falling and Aunties Roxy and Wendy were nice enough to be our photographers (never a dull moment with those two).
In these pics the boys are 28 months old and 6 months old. Micah is holding steady at 7 teeth, 20 pounds, and sitting up. Elijah is loving his classes, swimming every week with daddy, and is now addicted to the movie CARS.
Next post.... HALLOWEEN...
