Trick or Treating

Tyler wanted to be a police man this year.


So that meant Lucas had to be a police offer as well. I tried to convince him to be a fireman since we already had that in our dress up box but he couldn't be persuaded.


Since Colin is too young to have an opinion I made him their baby prisoner. 

Love this photo! 

 

We usually only make it to down a few streets but the older boys were much more determined this year. 

We trick or treated with their friends Jake, Andrew & Conner. Colin and I tagged along for a bit and then left the older boys to work on building up my chocolate stash.

83 in October

 

Love this late October weather! We are playing outside as much as we can while we still can!

Colin Starts Gymnastics

After being dragged along to all of his brothers classes, practices and games Colin finally gets his turn.

The poor 3rd child finally started gymnastics class at the Y.

 

He liked the class but seemed fascinated the most by the stamps they gave him on his hands and feet at the end of the class.

Chicago Birthday Trip

We usually head up to Libertyville in October to visit Brian's family and celebrate a slew of family birthdays.

Danielle turned 7.

Nathan turned 9.

Emilee turned 4.

The kiddos had lots of fun at Emilee's birthday party.

 Daddy took Colin down the slide and he couldn't wait to do it again and again and again.  

 

Ty having fun. I somehow missed any in focus pictures of Lucas. I think he was a blur of action the whole time.

Tyler's Kindergarten School Picture

 

Tyler's first Lifetouch photo. His class went from gym to photos so that probably explains the crazy hair. I love the fake grin. Exactly what I expected from a school picture!

Familial Resemblance

 

Lucas and Colin obviously look alike and I am starting to see more similarities between Tyler and Colin.
