mr grumpy and mr happy at Nolan's Thanksgiving feast

This is one of Bryce's more common faces! Nolan's Thanksgiving feast was very cute. He dressed as a Native American and the whole class recited poems and sang songs before having a feast of goldfish and juice.

the iPad

Andy doesn't want to miss out on anything that his brothers do. He knows the iPad is fun because he watches them. Whenever he can get to it, he grabs it and swipes the screen to watch the colors. He has to be distracted to get it back. Andy has also started babbling and his favorite is babababa.

While Nolan is at school, Bryce and Andy hang out and Andy loves to do everything Bryce does. Andy holds strange things to explore like this back scratcher. Bryce is loving having the guinea pigs to hold and snuggle

messy

Andy is still eating and really prefers to have big food pieces to suck on by himself. He likes biter biscuits, puffs and pizza crust. He doesn't like to be spoon fed as much as he wants to feed himself.

eating

Andy had his first official food on November 1st. He had been stealing things to suck on and gum for about a week so we figured it was time to give him food. Andy had pears and seemed to like them. He reached for the spoon and was mostly happy!

Halloween!

We went trick or treating with our new neighbors on Halloween and had a great time! That night Bryce chose to dress up in a red costume that I thought was a power ranger but turned out to be a lego bionicle. Andy wore a bumblebee costume. It was very cold that night, but the boys wanted to keep going, very excited about the candy.

carving pumpkins

We carved pumpkins at Grandmom's house. The pumpkins were frozen from the earlier snow. The boys enjoyed it and Bryce giggled a lot about how chilly the pumpkin was. Nolan said it felt slimy, and made faces but said he didn't mind the slimy feeling. Andy enjoyed touching and exploring the pumpkin too.
