Fun Pictures of Myles


He is a big one- this bear outfit is 12 months!


Superman: Lots of Stickers


Rhett does this quite often when he finds stickers. He will stick every last one of them on his right arm and call himself Superman. His stickers on his arm are his super powers. He has never seen Superman so he just means a super man.
The tears in the picture are from the evil villain stealing one of his super powers. Yes, Caramel is very evil and loves to steal things; kind of like a girl Swiper from Dora but of instead of "Oh, man" she will say something like "How dare you!"
While Caramel has had swimming lessons, Rhett has been supplied with stickers and a magnified glass. He likes to spy on the bench area looking for cracks. He has made Mom and Myles Superman as well with stickers, but always takes them back before class is over.
 
Caramel has realized that when she is at school she misses out on things that Rhett, Myles, and I do. When she found out Rhett was having a pajama day with his Joyschool class she was devastated that she wasn't. Also when she found out that we played at the church in the gym that was just exactly what she wanted to do that morning as well.

Halloween Day and Night

Caramel had school but there was no costumes allowed. I remember on Halloween in elementary school having an assembly and each class parading around to show costumes- times have changed. They did have a class party and Caramel brought grapes and banana chips- very festive..well the grapes did have a ghost on the container. 
During the day on Halloween we went to Grammy Pam's house to trick or treat. The kids got treat bags and stayed for a bit. Grammy's house is always decorated for holidays. Myles went as a ghost this time around.




Halloween night Anthony took the kids around the block. Our sweet elderly neighbor was waiting and watching for us to knock. Caramel was so excited. Rhett changed his costume to a fire truck and was pushed out the door with no shoes on. After going around the block Rhett declared, "this is the last house, daddy." He was tried of walking. Caramel wasn't to happy about that but was easily distracted with the idea of counting candy at home. I enjoyed staying home answering the door with Myles. We had a few large groups stop by, one teenager group with no costumes and no bag!

Harvest Party

Caramel's school had a Harvest party that the PTA put on. I went early and helped with the Spin and Win game for the first half. Anthony came later with the kids and was lucky to have Grandpa Dan's help. The kids had lots of fun. Caramel had to play the cake walk game until we won, so we were there for a long time. In the end we won for dancing not actually having her number pulled. Rhett was being a little monster by the end of it. Anthony's life long dream of being a crayon was fulfilled.

Pumpkin Carving



Caramel, Cachet, Grandpa Neil, Anthony, Myles, Rhett

 Here are the finished pumpkins, some were carved, others drawn on. Caramel and Rhett thought it was so gross when I cut the tops off and we started cleaning them out. Rhett's was the easiest, reminded me of a little soup bowl. I was glad Rhett never complained about his pumpkin being so small; I thought he would but he was satisfied with his choice. Caramel drew on her pumpkin and Myles's small one. Anthony has done the shaving or peeling of pumpkins for a couple years now. He always gets a huge one. Anthony usually finds the carving I do funny. I like to keep mine simple. There is a picture of Myles while we were carving looks scared.

Stretching

Love those big stretches babies do. Back nice and curved so so so cute. When I get Myles out of bed and carry him to the changing table he will do these. Arms up in the air. Bend the arms to show the muscles with chest out- of course no breathing so the face turns more red. Last back to normal.
