Making the Most of the Peak Seasonal Colors!

As the leaves reach their peak here in Virginia, I wanted to make sure we were able to get some good shots of the boy with the colors in the background! Here are some Daddy, Mommy, and Grammy shots.... Just look at how my 2 fellas look alike! It's scary! :)

Happy Halloween!

Grayson "had a great time" for his first Halloween! Unfortunately, daddy came down with the flu, so he had to steer clear of us most of the time (hence why he's not in most of these pictures). Even still, I had a blast with our little boy! We trick-or-treated at our house, Grammy's, and Great Grandaddy's! Here are the pictures from the day's adventure!

Visions of Candy Corn dance in his head....

Look at our little MONKEY!

He got a kick out of Gray's costume!

He's just about done for the night!

Grayson's Excersaucer

Gray LOVES his new toy! He can JUST reach the bottom and loves the spinning thing :) Yesterday, I put him in it for about 2 minutes, and he fell asleep!




See...told ya! He had an imprint on his forehead before I was able to take him out :)

Mommy Play Date

Julie, Andrea, and I went to Karyn's house today for our Mommy Play Date, and we had a blast! Karyn had lots of fun toys for our babies to play with, and it even prompted me to go straight to Babys R Us with them and buy his first play activity seat thingy! Oh yeah, and Gray tried to act like Charlotte and Jack by sitting up with them and hanging out..with a little help from mommy!

Gray LOVES this thing!

Charlotte's looking at Jack, Jack's looking at Gray, and Gray's looking at....hmmmmm dunno!

Sittin' with the big kids! Oh yeah! (Brayden is taking a nap at this time!)

WOAH!!! (I really just took my hand off for a second, but it looks like he can do it!!)

Chillin' at Ruby Tuesdays while the moms eat some salad :)

Grayson and Patrick

Dona and her son Patrick came over today and hung out for a bit! Patrick is 3 weeks older than Gray, but they weigh the same :) 16.9ish pounds! We had lots of fun, and as you can see by these pictures, they're buds for life already!

There's NOTHING cuter than baby hands!
Patrick found Gray's arm to be YUMMY!

LOVE LOVE LOVE the look on Patrick's face here! :)


hee hee!

They're so cute!

Pumpkin Carving at the Lajin's :)

We had such a great time at Laura and Rami's today! We carved our first pumpkin with our boy... daddy was QUITE the artist, I must say! Gray loved all the attention he got, even if he WAS a bit fussy there for a bit... As you can see, Laura and Denise had fun holding him, and the food....AH the food! Rami needs to patent his rice dish...AMAZING! What a great day :)

Our little "pumpkin"

Jeesh, they look SO much alike!
Like father..... Like son :O)
Mommy loves her boy SO much!
Daddy's workin' his magic :)
Wow....some FAMILY pictures! These are SO rare! (Thanks Laura!)


Our first pumpkin with Gray! (nice cemetary in the background, Rami!)
The boys.... I smell TROUBLE!!!
What a face!
Laura and Rami PRACTICE with our boy! (They're next ;) )

She can't get enough of him!
More pumpkins at the party... this one's a PIRATE! Ah, art teachers! Now, a MUSIC teacher did this one of a haunted tree! IMPRESSIVE!
