Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Pumpkin Patch at Kendall United Methodist Church to take some pictures with the pumpkins.  Haydee from my Mommy group took some and I took the rest.  Gabe is growing so much; it's amazing to think that he's almost 3.

Morning at the Seaqurium

We went to the Seaquarium today and got to take a picture with a sea lion.  That's him behind Gabriel.  It was a fun adventure as we got to meet the sea lion, see some seals, hear a story, color, and look at the dolphins and fishes.  All in all a nice full morning.

It really felt like you could touch the dolphins as they were swimming past the glass. They kept coming by, so maybe they can see through the glass.  Something to look up, I guess. :)

The boys were really enjoying the dolphins so after we left to look at another aquarium, they came back to the dolphins.

Joshua was rather pooped by the end of the morning and he decided to practice his brand new skill of thumb sucking.

Celebrating Mommy's Birthday at Indian Hammocks Park

My Mommy group celebrates the Mommy Birthsdays in one get together monthly.  Today we had the October one, which includes yours truly, and had German chocolate cake and fun in the park.  Haydee graciously took some pictures of Gabriel as he was perched atop an arch in the playground.  I thought they came out wonderful so I am sharing.

Angel Hanging Out w/ Us

Angel was hanging out with us, so we had a full house on Wednesday. 

She was also enjoying getting to know her littlest cousin.

Mugging for the camera is what she does best; like mommy like daughter. :)

More TLC (w/ Handy Manny in the background; you can see what sometimes helps me keep the kids in check ;)

Hanging Out

Here we had arrived home from Firetruck Storytime and the kids were winding down from the outing with some Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (which Gabriel is OBSESSED with).  Brandon was visiting with us on this day and needless to say he was not as interested in the television.

Here I attempt to snap a picture while both children look at me, and while I try to make them smile.  Only managed half the goals, oh well...

Firetruck Storytime

Another adventure at {inecrest Gardens was had today.  We attended the Firetruck Storytime where books were read, firetruck cookies were made (and eaten), and tattoos were applied.  All in all a very eventful morning.  

I also dressed the kids alike as the only upside of not getting the girl I wanted is dressing my boys alike.  Aren't they gorgeous?

Making firetruck cookies from oreos and graham crackers:  This was surprisingly simple. :)
