In the swim of things

Connor and Jackson got up bright and early this morning...and we headed to the pool! Yep, we started swimming lessons! The boys really enjoyed it. Connor hollered at me from across the pool...Mom, this is awesome! then gave me a big thumbs up.

Poor Jackson (who has no fat on his entire body)was shivering as he got out of the pool....

Here's Connor...talking the entire way out of the pool. He can't wait for the next lesson!

Sweet Treats

There were some pretty cute trick or treaters in Lancaster last night. I'm a little biased I know..but...

Craig headed over to Aunt Lisa and Uncle Steve's house without me for dinner (I was stuck at work)...then Grandma, PopPop, Aunt Lisa, and cousins Lindsey and Seth headed out to fill their trick or treat bags.

Here's a look at our crews....Connor even got a brand new spiderman outfit to replace the shredded old one...

Jackson loved being Thomas...

Mitchell wasn't feeling so well....poor guy...

and of course, our wild pony, Sawyer.

What a fun...sugar filled...night!

By the way, I finally figured out how to rotate my pictures! Yeah!

On any given day

This is something you'll see a lot in our house. Little boys surrounding the train table. One of the best things we've been seeing lately is all of them playing together. They really take turns nicely. I love seeing them help one another find a train or put together a piece of track.

While his big brothers were playing at the train table, I put Mitchell in his swing. He loved it. As you can clearly see....

I actually took this picture in mid-swing. Look at that face! I could just cover it with kisses. Anyway, as Mitchell was swinging, his brother would occassionally walk over to the swing. Sawyer would push the swing....Jackson would try to give him a kiss...then they'd go back to their trains. Well, at one point, I looked in the room and I knew I had to grab my camera because I saw this....

The picture isn't very good, but Connor had pulled out a book and was reading to Mitchell. It was soooo cute. After Connor would "read" the page, he'd hold the book up so that Mitchell could see the pictures. What a sweet thing.
