Fall is here!

 
 
(All of the pictures in this post will be poor quality since they were taken with my blackberry)
 

So fall is officially here.  Our pumpkins we planted are all picked.  I haven't decided what we will carve into them yet...



I bought Amelia a Snow White costume on clearance last year to wear this Halloween.  I put it on her and she looked like a boy linebacker in a dress.  This picture actually turned out cute but I was sad.


Mom bought her this cute pirate costume. I thought she looked cute.  So this may be her Halloween costume this year. 


Hayden wanted to be one of the Avengers this Halloween. I got him a Captain America costume at the consignment store for $6.  I don't have a picture of him in it yet.  This is him as a storm trooper the other day...


We also grew Sunflowers this year...only one made it! (Ignore our messy yard, or as our neighbors called it the Kennywood back yard.  I think they were being nice and not calling it the white trash yard).

Amelia was sick one morning and slept with Mike on the couch.  So cute.  Both kids currently have constant runny noses.  And neither likes wearing shoes or socks.  Hayden absolutely hates socks.  It takes 20 minutes to get them on him.  They have to feel perfect or he flips.


The leaves are just starting to change color.  This is one in the front by the driveway.


The kids have to wear coats in the morning because it is chilly.  Amelia loves wearing her coat.  Hayden it depends.  Some days he wears it and won't take it off all day.  Other days its like the socks and I have to threaten him to wear it.


This picture is not really fall related but a shot of Hayden devouring hummus.  He loves that stuff.  It is probably the only healthy thing he willingly eats.  Notice Amelia just standing up on the chair.  She loves to climb everything.  Also notice that they both have their own container of hummus.  Much easier that way.  Hayden also gets his own b/c he literally licks it out of the container and uses his fingers.  No one wants to eat it after him!


And here is a picture of Mike attempting to build a clay oven.  I will let you know how that goes later.

 

 
With fall comes soccer.  The season is half way over and my team is in the middle of the pack.  One day we beat the first place team (with only 10 players due to a red card) and another day we lose bad to a team that was not good at all.  We have lots of injuries this year too.  I haven't had the same line up yet for any games. 
 
More updates later...

Lovin' the pictures. I vote for the Pirate costume, but I do like the Princess one too. And, NO, she does NOT look like a linebacker!!! Mean Mom!!!! She's a little Sweetie Pie.
