John Deere

sporting his cute new outfit from grandpa

this six week old baby is sure doing a great job filling out his six month sized clothes!

so smiley and happy all the time!

Pumpkins

Instead of a toddler wielding a knife, we opted for painting instead of carving.

Roo had so much fun!

my masterpiece (with a few scribbles from andrew on the side)

robert painted lightning mcqeen on his.  andrew thought it was the coolest thing ever

the little chubbers watching us from his swing

andrew loves the cars pumpkin!

see :)  we put the pumpkins out on the porch but he insisted on "queen" coming inside

Ka-chow! 

Alex at 5 weeks

He has been smiling and cooing at us.  It's pretty stinkin cute!  He still has a huge appetite and eats a ton.  He has been spending a lot time awake and watching his big brother.  At night though, he is a noisy sleeper!  He makes lots of grunting noises that make it hard for Robert and me to sleep.  I think he might be moving into his own room in the near future.  

We can't imagine our lives without this mellow, snuggly, cute little guy!

Two Cute Boys!

conspiring against me :)

look at that long, chubby body

I put this shirt on Alex Saturday morning and Andrew came unglued, yelling, "My shirt!  No!  Mine!" and trying to pull it off of him.  I assured him that it wasn't his shirt and took him into his room and changed him into his BYU tshirt.  All was right in his world again.
