Go Chiefs Go!!

Elijah calls him "Moo-mer", we have got to work on those B's.

Elijah saw Boomer for the first time tonight and couldn't take his eyes off of him, it was so funny. We ran into him when we went out at intermission and he wasn't too sure about him up close.

Tried to take a family picture, but Ethan was mad about not getting a pretzel so just the three of us.

I have had the past 5 days to catch up on my blog and it has been wonderful, but tomorrow I will be back to work so I thought I would try to post one more thing before the chaos begins again.

We went to the chiefs game last night and Elijah had a great time dancing and clapping to the music. He didn't want to sit still of course, but he had fun. One of our friends is a referee and tossed a puck into the crowd and Chris caught it. Elijah wanted to hold it and of course it was wet from the ice so he kept trying to lick it and I did a great job of not letting him of course till I turned around to take a picture and he got it in his mouth. Oh well.

First Snow ....

Snow Snow Snow....I really don't love the snow, but the boys sure do. As soon as it started falling they couldn't get their snowsuits on fast enough. It was the first time Elijah really has been out playing in the snow, last year he wasn't walking so we just watched it out the window. This was also our dog Browney's first adventure in the snow. They had a great hour outside and here are some pictures of all the fun...

Heading out to the street, "Elijah please stop"

There is no stopping him

We tried to see if anyone wanted to play with us so we made the long journey up to Reegans house(three houses away). Along the way we spotted a snowman at the neighbors house and tried to destroy it,

we got tired along the way and wanted to be picked up,but

we kept on going till we made it over there.
Reegan wasn't feeling good so we ended up going home and playing with Browney.We had a lot of fun and can't wait for another snow day!!

Playing with Dad and Smiling for the camera

Elijah just started really playing with his farm animal set. It is really cute because he will run over and and lay on his tummy and kick his feet in the air and play with all the animals. Dad got in on the action the other night. I was taking pictures of them playing and Elijah came running over to me and smiled and then ran over by the tree and I said "Smile" and he turned his head and smiled. So cute!! I can't believe how big he is getting. I am so sad since he is my last little baby I just want him to stay this cute forever.

Christmas Tree Set up

We decided to put up the christmas tree a little early this year since we will be in Denver in a few weeks and won't get to enjoy it to long. This year we had some extra help from Elijah which is always an adventure. Here are some pictures to show how the assembly went....

We got the tree set up and one layer done when Elijah found the Christmas lights and began trying to put them on the tree. He also learned the fun trick of plugging things in. Needless to say we are on constant alert with the outlets.

putting on the lights...

Snowsuit

Elijah wanted to put on his snowsuit, but only ended up wearing it for 5 minutes and then started trying to take it off and signing "all done"

I'm a big boy now

Elijah has started really wanting to play with Ethan's toys and especially tries to get in his room anytime the door is left open. I caught him playing with Ethan's leapster game and climbing up onto Ethan's desk to draw so me pictures. He is so funny.

Halloween Fun for Teachers

Parades, excitement, candy and a school full of kids, what fun do teahers really have on Halloween?

The costumes of course!

Well not really, but our grade team had some fun this year dressing up as "Super Teachers" and we posed for some pictures.

Shaggy and Scooby

We went trick or treating at Chris's office on Friday and the boys got lots of candy and had fun touring the office. Ethan went as Shaggy and Elijah was Scooby Do.
