Leaves, Halloween, and More!

 Dominic was Spiderman for Halloween. Here he is flexing.

 These 2 warm my heart

 Dominic wanted to try on his costume from last year

 And John tried it too!

 Diaper box into....... CAR!

 Here are all of our piles of leaves (well, at least of ONE of the many days of leaf raking....Great job Joe and all those who helped us!)

 Resting with Dad after Dominic woke up from his nap

 Here is John's black-eye from when he hit it on a drawer knob in the kitchen! Eh! That was a bad one!

Fun in the leaves

 Dominic and his friend, Charlie, pretending like they are sleeping on bunk beds (even though it is the toy bookcase)

 Our little Halloween "monster"

Cider Mill this Fall

 Attempting to get a picture of all the grandchildren (except Scarlett wasn't there!).  John appears in the 3rd one.

Our two boys

Here are a ton of pictures from the past summer and fall.    The pictures go from most recent to oldest, dating back to July! Eh!  The videos are from September (Dominic 2 years old, John 6 months old)  But as I always say....better late than never, right?  I'll try to post some videos soon, too.

Joe's 30th Bday in August

Check out this zucchini from our garden!! It was bigger than John!! haha

Oh, boy, we had a lot of laughs with this one.  We called it our "Baby Zucchini."

Here are the kids/cousins playing in our house this past summer.  Daniel far left, Scarlett, and Jonah and Dominic.

And Anna and Caleb over there on the left.  The kids are so cute together.

This pic is blurry, but I couldn't resist putting it up because of John's face.  He was just about to crawl as fast as he could to me in the picture, as I was taking it.

Where's Dominic?!?  He loves to clear his toys off the toy shelf and then pretend like he is sleeping.

More of little John

And creative ideas for a caption for this pic? 

Kisses for little bro

Happy John and Dad

When we play music and dance around, Dominic copies Joe putting his arm up in the air like this, with his finger pointed.

This is the face we get when we say "Show your teeth"

And this is the face we get when we say "Smile!" haha.....

Hanging out with Grandpa this summer

I made Dominic this toolbelt....he wore it a couple of days, but unfortunately, he hasn't really taken to it yet.  Hopefully some day! (Ironically, as I'm posting this, Dominic just ran and put this on after seeing the picture!)

John at 5.5 months old, just about to start crawling. He loved doing the "plank" position.  We were shocked at his strength!

Pic from July (John 4.5 months old, Dominic 22 months)

This bumbo lasted about 2 days...John soon loved launching himself over the side of it.

Warms a mother's heart....

 Bathtime in the kitchen sink!
