Halloween Party at School

Getting ready for the Halloween party at school. I didn't think Jack wanted to be in his real costume all day, so we opted for a more casual, skeleton look :)

He is also clutching his newest obsession...The Race Car Book. If I get hit with those plastic wheels one more time, it's going in the trash!!!!

Welcome Cousin Colbie!

Colbie Ashton Cupit

Jack has a new cousin! Born on October 25th. This tiny girl already has everyone (especcially her daddy) wrapped around her finger. She is just precious!

Jack's 2nd Pumpkin Carving!

Sadly, we are done with Jack's "firsts". So, this is his SECOND pumpkin to carve. He was only slightly more interested than he was last year.

He did not like touching the pumpkin guts. Of course, we only realized this after we put him in the sink to step all over it....oops.

Checking it out.
Jack doesn't really care about the pumpkin, he is only obsessed with the flame of the candle.

The Face Off!

Ready for Halloween 2010!

Pumpkin Patch

Took this guy to a pumpkin patch down the street. More of a pumpkin yard, really.... but,we had fun just the same.

(Apologies to the lady in the pink shirt for the slightly unflattering shot)

Obviously, he's up to something.

Cute big boy on the hay bale. Note the Sperry's, people!

We are always amazed by what simple things completely captivate his attention. A piece of hay = entertainment for 5 minutes. Love it!

mmmmm....delicious pumpkin stem!

Dad and lad!

The school bully lives at my house!

I know it's hard to believe, but our sweet Jack has become the Butterflies classroom bully.

Here is part of the "incident report" that we received last week:

"Jack was very rough with his friends today. There were several times we had to pull him off of his classmates. He pulled hair out of one child's head, and pulled other children's hair. He knocked down and climbed on top of several kids, and scratched them. When we tried to pull him away, he would not let go of the other children. Twice he attempted to bite another child."

MY BABY!!! :(

...and we're back!

I know you missed us! It has been a long couple of months...but, I promise to start updating the blog weekly*
