Happy Halloween aka "Trick-or-Treat Training"

Daddy took Bear trick-or-treating tonight, while Buddy and Mommy stayed home and greeted the trick-or-treaters. They were gone an hour and a half. Daddy says he kept asking Bear if she wanted to go home, but she was not ready until the very end. If Mommy had known the first-timer would last that long, she would have been more generous while passing out candy.

Can't wait!

Daddy needs a costume next year.
He wasn't keen on mommy's suggestion to go around the 'hood in his new suit.

(I was so bummed when I realized I had the camera on the wrong setting when I took these first few..)

(Pay no attention to the bib, he really wanted his bottle)

After the bottle (which he ate in between several trick-or-treaters).

Okay, seriously... an hour and a half trick or treating for a 3 year old?
Looks like it was for Daddy, doesn't it?

Being cute is hard work, too.

checking out daddy's new ride

It was raining last night, but that did not stop him from playing with his new "baby" a little. Hannah was thrilled to get to wait up past her bedtime to see Daddy.





So far she's keeping a safe distance between the bike and herself. Although the pics don't seem to indicate it, she seems to like it. Now if I can get her to not want to pet our woodchuck.


She did sit on the motorcycle with Daddy for a few seconds today. Then she got mad that she could not ride it with him.

Hannah decided Larry needed some core-strength training. Notice that Hannah is using the beach ball because it's just her size.


Then she decided Daddy needed some exercise, too:

This video will be priceless some day. I wonder what ever happened to the old slides my parents took of us when we were this little....

"Wordless" Wednesday

"I'm so stuffed, I can't move!"
(Immediately after coming home from eating Mexican for last night's dinner,
this is where Hannah plopped herself.)

Daddy's hugs are a great way to start the day!
