tigger

Today was our Halloween party at the library. Aaron was Tigger! We go to the library once a week for story time. It lasts about 20 minutes--that's about all his age group can handle! After about 5 mins the story teller AND the parents are checking the clock.
Our story teller is so good with the kids--she dressed up as Waldo from the Where's Waldo books! And we had a princess and a witch---and a Tigger! The little girl, 3rd from the right, is Aaron's friend. Her name is Faith and she has a 15 yr old brother too. They always sit right beside each other. (I think he likes her dark curly hair!)

Princess Melaina

These three are always so good and listen so well--not like Aaron--today he got up and ran around all the chairs. Maybe he thought we were going to play duck-duck-goose.

Happy Halloween!

carving pumpkins

Brian and Aaron carved pumpkins tonight. Danny helped--but only for a minute! Aaron kept calling it a "jackle." He is so funny! Don't mind the messy kitchen, please--I still need to clean up from dinner. Sorry about the short post but Aaron needs a bath and the kitchen is STILL dirty!

I love this video!

"Yuck!! What is this stuff?"

Master Carver--what concentration......



the finished "jackle"

footed pajamas!

Kelli and I agree--we love footed pajamas. They force your "babies" to look like babies! oh yeah, and they are so warm for sleeping. Brian said we were all going to have to wear them, because of the furnace nazi--me! I won't let them turn the heat up! Um--HELLO! We have oil heat--pricey! He and Danny are going to have to get used to wearing clothes to bed....TMI?? sorry!
Aaron playing with his "new" Sesame Street cars from the boys.
He took Big Bird to bed last night.
This morning he was looking for something to fix! I tried to get a better picture of the pj's with the tool belt, but as you can see--he won't slow down.
Aaron calls his pj's, "A jays"--and he says it all exaggerated. Hey, Aaron just came over to the computer, pointed at himself, and said, "melmo?" And, I said, "no--that's Aaron." He just grinned.
His new thing is to put money in is pockets--like Daddy. He's usually in our room when Brian is getting ready for work (mostly because Mommy isn't ready to get out of bed yet) and he sees Brian put change in his pockets.
Good Morning, Brian--oops! I mean Aaron!
I like how he hold his shirt WAY up and reaches ALL the way across his body to put the pennies in his pocket. This is serious stuff.
He can say, "money" real well. He also likes to put the change in his bank or "buck" as he calls it--but then he wants it back.....he gets that from me!!

mamaw and papaw

WOOHOO!! Mamaw and Papaw were here over the weekend. We all had a great time! My mom and I went shopping on Saturday and left the boys at home and then we all went to eat that evening.
I couldn't decide which picture to use--check out Aaron's cheesy grin!
Aunt Kelli sent lots of books and toys from her boys--Aaron roped Mamaw into reading most of the weekend. How could she deny, though?? He would walk over to her with a book and say, "I read? I read?" and then turn around so she could pick him up to her lap.
Aaron wore this tigger hat for 3 days--he wanted Papaw to give it a try--
--here he is---TIGGER!

I wish they could've stayed longer--the time absolutely flew by! When they left Aaron stood on the porch saying, "Bye bye Papaw."
Here's some pics I've been meaning to blog! How funny is this one--he's really concentrating on something!
Aaron's new thing is to wear shoes--all the time. He wasn't even dressed this morning and he needed his shoes on. He brings them to you and says, "mon? mon?"

My Aunt Sharlene left a comment and asked if all Aaron's clothes were blue and gold--and my answer is--"Not only blue and gold, but the majority of them say WVU!!" I think he's watching Sesame Street in this picture.
"Touchdown!"
Doesn't he look like he's ready for Jamboree in the Hills?? with the muscle shirt and desert camo hat?

"Yeehaw!"

b-ball

I'm so sorry it's been so long. I've been really busy down here in Va--having lunch with friends, painting my toe nails, getting my hair done, eating bon bons....you know.......the life of a stay-at-home mom!!
Here's some pictures that I've been meaning to share.
Look how tall Danny is getting!
Is that a foul or something??

"All this watching is making me thirsty!!"

Happy Birthday!

Today is Papaw's birthday!! I don't always do birthdays on the blog--but hey--it's Papaw!

Here he is with all the boys at the beach.

He was holding Aaron one time and he fell asleep--waiting to eat--Aaron not Papaw this time!
Papaw and his "little" brother, Uncle Phil--

What handsome guys!

Happy Birthday, Papaw!! WE LOVE YOU!!

me too Dad--I love you bunches!!
