Oh, how I love October... and, we had a really great month. I've posted a bunch, so will not be repeating, but even with all the fall and Halloween activities, I have plenty of great pictures to share. I took nearly 700 pictures this month!!
October was a party month. We went to three birthday parties this month and I also made it to a Creative Memories party. I'm looking into digital scrapbooking and am excited about starting annual photo albums... I feel guilty that when Jackson wants to look at pictures, he sits on my lap at the computer... The party was good to see what kind of options are out there and to get ideas from some other creative people. Hopefully, I'll have more to blog about that soon.
We celebrated with Wyatt and his family early in the month. I don't have any pictures, but Megan and her family put on a really fun party. Jackson loved the bounce house best :) The next weekend, we went to Mathew's party. It was a Thomas party with lots of activities to keep the kids busy... (thanks to Jen for her images :).
Jen set up train cars for the kids to throw bean bags into the windows... I thought they were for pictures, lol.

The kids obviously knew better... Bean bag toss into train cars ;) This is Jackson checking out the birthday boy's aim.

And, Jackson pinning the number 1 onto Thomas.

We also helped celebrate Evelyn's first birthday. Here's a picture of the boys eating their lunch.

And, one of the girls :)

Some of the other, every day type events from the month... Mary Grace is pulling up on everything and enjoys standing. She also still loves "Patty Cake" and "Soooo Biiigggg." Her "so big" sounds a lot like "ah dihnnnn." Jackson is asking questions like crazy - most of which he knows the answers to, and we're working on asking nicely and saying please. He's getting there ;)
Some of the best non-Fall/Halloween shots of the month...
Pretty girl all dressed up to go to Toy Story 3 On Ice

Arrrrrrrr!

Enjoying finger foods.


Soooooooo Biiigggggggg


On the go.

Playing chase :) They both laugh hysterically with each other as they chase each other around the house.

My kids in a box (think JT).

Feetie jammies

And, here is MG's 10-month-old picture, taken on October 24.

It was just a great month... I did have to travel to St. Louis for a week for work, but even that trip went better than I was expecting it to. Fall makes me happy... sweatshirts and pumpkins make me happy... witnessing my kids experiencing joy makes me happy. Thankful :)
