Sweet Punkins

Today we finally got pumpkins! We had fun carving them. It was nice to take out some pent-up energy from school by chopping them open and carving their seed-guts out. We got a few pictures:

Kevin exhibits violent tendencies when you put him in front of a pumpkin.

Almost done!

Our pumpkins! Shannon's is obviously a cute rendition of Jack Skellington, and mine is a greasy dude with a pencil 'stache and a nice hairdo.

The Boots

My little sister, Rusti, came to visit us over the weekend. While she was here we decided to do a little shoe window shopping. We walked into Famous Footwear and Rusti stumbled upon The Boots. She simply had to have Logan try them on. They were a perfect fit and went very well with the Wranglers he happened to be wearing that day. We all fell in love! Even Kevin couldn't deny how cute they were. Rusti insisted on buying them and now Logan cries every time I try take them off. He even made me put them on over his pajama pants this morning. He is attached to The Boots.

A Case of the Munchies

Let me begin this post by saying that we almost ALWAYS eat dinner at 5:00. Logan almost ALWAYS thinks he is absolutely starving at 4:45. This day was no different. I was in the kitchen cooking dinner; Logan was holding onto my leg and crying. He let go of my leg long enough to climb onto the table and start playing in the fruit bowl. I pulled him off and continued fixing dinner. A few days later I found this...

He took just enough bites of the apple to stave himself off until dinner and left the rest behind. At least he only decided to bite into one and not all ten of the apples!

The Place

First off, we DID NOT paint this place. But the longer we've lived here I think the paint is sort of starting to grow on me. So this is it. Most of it anyway, I left out the laundry room because it's unfinished and gross. I figured if I don't even like to go in there then nobody else would want to see it either.

The Upstairs Bathroom

Our Backyard (my favorite part of the entire place)

Our Room (my least favorite part minus the laundry room)

He is KEVIN'S Son

Logan likes to go downstairs when I'm busy and get into things in our bedroom. Kev found him down there the other day like this...



That's right, he CHOSE to study, all on his own! Our kid is already self motivated, I love it!
