Stephen just thought he'd eat some dirt instead...

Mallory, Lila & I made caramel apples last night. (Clara had already gotten cranky and was in bed).

Mallory's Pumpkin

Mallory had to decorate a pumpkin as a favorite book character, and of course, she chose Dorothy. Here she is showing off her pumpkin as well as her new glasses...

Toddler Property Laws

I came across this on a scrapbooking website. Oh how true!!

Toddler Property Laws:
If I want it, it's mine.
If it's in my hand, it's mine.
If I can take it away from you, it's mine.
If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
If it's mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
If we are building something together, all of the pieces are mine.
If it looks just like mine, it's mine.
If I think it's mine, it's mine.
If I give it to you, and change my mind later, it's mine.
Once it's mine it will never belong to anyone else, no matter what.

Boy do we have our work cut out for us!

Look Who's Two!

I finally got around to taking some two year old shots of Clara. (Only a month late - not too bad for the third child). Here are a couple of my favs:



And one of Lila, who wanted her picture made too:

Apples

In case you missed my cuties in the Autumn Apple Affair slideshow, here are a couple of my favorite shots:

SUCH photographer's children (forget about paying attention to the camera):

And my latest favorite picture of Clara:

Glad to know we're teaching our children the important things in life...

So a week or so ago I had the rare opportunity to actually take a nap. As I was waking up I hear Mallory and Kevin having a heart to heart...

"Mallory why don't you go order a pizza?"
"Dad! I don't know how."
"It's important for you to learn. What would you do if Mommy and Daddy were both hurt and you had to feed yourself and Lila."
"Call 911?"
"Well, yeah, but what if you needed food?"

Hmm... glad to know at least someone in the house knows how to handle an emergency!
