Uncle Dan Visits

The boys really enjoyed their time with Uncle Dan. We went to the Norwalk Aquarium where Dan and Ben and Daddy built a pirate boat out of wood. Ben wasn't too sure about the fishes as they were in dark exhibits. Sunday we marched in a Halloween Parade and got treats from the Irvington Fire Department. It was a perfect weekend.

Giggles

Making Jake laugh is also lots of fun. Check out this short video clip of our almost 6 month old!

New Milestones

Jake is learning to sit up (tripod) for a few seconds and then tips over. Its cute. He lasts longer if he is focused on a toy (like my camera case in this photo).

At the Park

The boys love the park. Jake even fits in the swing!! There's nothing like a crisp fall day to enjoy some fresh air...we even hope it will help them sleep well at night!

Busy at School

Ben is having a blast at school but with all the Jewish Holidays this month, he is off a lot. He made this Sukkah last week. Its all edible...yum!

Halloween is coming

Halloween is coming and we are getting ready. Ben will be a scary pirate like last year. Jake is going to be a Pea in a Pod. We have already picked out our pumpkins, decorated our house and bought our halloween candy. We are all set for the Trick or Treaters. Ben can't wait to get candy. His favorite is M & M's - plain, not with peanuts.

Routine

We are getting into a routine, yay! After dinner we go upstairs and Jake plays on his activity mat and waits for his bath. He is becoming mobile, and can scoot around so we have to be careful and always know where he is. Once he made is way to the bathroom to watch Ben take a bath.

Just a Lazy Sunday

Here they are in their jammies. Ben is getting over something, Jake has an ear infection that's going away (and mommy is sick too). But we are hanging out together and getting ready to do some shopping.
