FALL fest 2011 at Grace Brethren...

what a wonderful night- thanks DGB- we had fun celebrating with friends once again- too bad we didn't get a pic of the kids bouncing and sliding on all the inflatables- a great warm-up for Trick or Treat....the kids "trunk 0r treated" and got lots of goodies (mmm, thanks kids!)

WHooooo- do we love!?

so big, so fast!

my my my- can't believe we have graduated to the bouncy!! Mateo has two little teeth, loves to suck on his hands and feet- and sometimes can't decide so he tries to put both his foot and hand in there...smiles and 'talks' all the time...and is developing quite a little belly giggle!

***correction by Rod***technically we are only around 4 1/2- but I was thinking about updating the blog..so, 9 days early- 5 months......

Happy October....

a little fun....

One droolie monkey!

so...I thought he was NAPPING- turns out...Diego was giving himself a little "pedi" - With trepidation, I climbed the stairs to see the 'damage' to our bathroom...miracles of miracles- there was only a small , tiny drop of polish on the floor!
