Look: Oh ya I should mention that Uncle Bob, Uncle Matt and Aunt Jen came along...Colton didn't get here by himself. We were lucky to spend some of the morning on Thanksgiving with our cousins from Harrisburg. Colton really seemed to enjoy all the different toys we had and my kids just liked playing in general too.
Look: We hosted a Sunday night dinner for two of my brothers and their families. The fries I was baking were taking extra long so I whipped out a guess who type of game. I absolutely adore games and can remember always cheerfully saying yes when my nieces or nephews would ask to play. 
Look: I've been avoiding this activity because of the mess. We've used a lot of mess free alternatives to this but I finally had to try it with C and G. So after dinner and before baths I put their smocks on and covered their hands in paint...willingly, yikes!
Look: On this night we made ramps for our cars and balls (and whatever else my two wanted to try and roll) in our playroom. The pics just show one type but we made a few and the kids spent a good portion of the evening rolling things on ramps. It was simple to make ramps we used painters tape and an odd shaped box that we had cut up.
Look: Once a month we go for a long walk with other mommies. In November it was to Valley Forge Park. The moms walked about 3 miles and then stopped at the historic cabins to let the kids enjoy the beautiful November weather. We couldn't have asked for a better day.
Look: Story time today was with costumes. So I dressed my little tiger and octopus up today for Library. They both loved wearing their costumes out. C roared at several people and G just liked his hood.
Look: So I'm addicted to the new Wegman's they just built. It has ALL of C's special foods...previously I went to 5 stores to gather all her goods. We'd always run out of things or have to make extra trips. So this is just great. We are eating well, I can tell you that.
Look: Carving pumpkins today. We made three. C picked the shape of the eyes and nose for their pumpkin. Triangle eyes and a pig nose were her pick. G liked taking the lids and running around with them acting like it was a weapon of some sort (boys!).
Look: Today Chelsea and Gavin gathered leaves in a big bucket. We walked all over the back and front yard looking for leaves. This was the planned part. The first picture shows the unplanned part. C decided to bring all the leaves into her little house and dump them. Then she and G threw them in the air while jumping around...so cute.
Look: Okay, so sweatsuit day isn't a special event. But since we were feeling lousy, I thought comfort. What was special was that C didn't demand to wear a dress, she went along with it because everyone was "suited" up.
Look: I have two sick children. Yuck. Last night I decided to blow up about 30 balloons and litter our family room with them.
Look: Today we did a 4 mile walk on the Radnor Trail with some other moms. The weather was beautiful even though it was calling for rain. G fell asleep on the way and slept through most of it. C was shy at first but lit up when her friends came.
