New PJ's and Abbey very first EVER PJ dress.....



She new the instant I put it on her that she was pretty. She knows a dress.





And here's Porter's new PJ's. They have monkeys.....of course.

Playing outside
The kids love to play outside. I usually let them play by themselves. I just keep an eye on them out the windows.







They played so hard that Bubby fell asleep in the chair. Here he is trying to eat his chocolate chip cookie.

Happy Halloween
Abigail helped us with taking out the guts. Porter didn't want to really help. He was off playing in the dirt.


We got really messy and sticky



Almost done

Then we got a bath and played cars in the hallway......(the pj bottoms are from their first Halloween at 6 months)

Abigail had to sit on the seat. She didn't want me holding her at all. She's a big girl now I guess.



Let's get this thing goin!



This was Porter's face the whole time. It really chills him out.



Blueberry eyes



She held on with her little hand the whole time.



Scary tunnel

Afterwards we took the kids to Waterloo Ice House. This is the place that is right across the street from where they were born. If you show your hospital wrist band, you get a free beer. (We hobbled over for one a few days after the kids were born)
