Boo at the Akron Zoo

Meow! Lily is a kitty cat! I tried to give her a black nose and whiskers but she rubbed it off and it got in her eyes. So, I took it off.

Dillon is a pumpkin! Or, he's just wearing pumpkin jammies! And a baby's first Halloween bib. Lily wore these same jammies, and if I remember correctly Grammy & Grandpa bought them.

Waiting in a very long line to get tickets. It went fast, though. Lily did good riding in the stroller like this. First time Dillon rode up front and Lily rode in the back.

She wouldn't leave her ears on for very long, so I was glad to get a few photos with them.

First treat station
After Lily's got her first treat, she kept saying "I wanna taste!" So we had to give her some! She ate almost the whole thing! It's hard to say no.
Eating chips!
Too much excitement for Dillon...
We dressed Kitty Cat up too. He was a super hero cat!
She got the hang of it after the first couple. But she never did say "trick or treat." Maybe next year.

It's hard to tell from these bottom photos, but Daddy put Dillon's jammies on wrong! The feet part are on the wrong feet, so he's all twisted up. Daddy's response "It was hard to dress him! He was moving around too much." LOL!

Today was a great day! Besides going to the zoo, Babe made the best baked potato soup! We ate it for lunch and dinner! Now it's time for bed. Have a great week everyone!

Sunday dinner at Nana & Papa's; New Car Seat

Last Sunday we went to Nana & Papa's for dinner to celebrate Uncle Jamie's birthday.
Papa and Uncle Jamie also helped Anson change the brakes on our van. Nana made lasagna, which was delicious!

Lily likes to hold Dillon, though she's not that good at it.
The birthday boy!
Sitting up and riding in the shopping cart for the first time at Giant Eagle
We upgraded Dillon to a big boy car seat. He still has to ride backwards until he's 1, but at least we don't have to carry about the heavy infant carrier seat anymore! They can see each other better now too.

Walsh Farms

Today we went to Walsh Farms with Jen & Zack. It was a beautiful fall day. For those of you who watch Little People Big World, this farm was similar to the Roloff Farm. Lots of fun activities for the kids. You can pick your own pumpkin and they sell yummy foods like kettle corn!

Hayride!

Neither one could decide which pumpkin they wanted. So in the end, we had to help them decide.
Eating an apple!
Earlier this morning. Lily was bouncing Dillon and asked me to take a picture.
This was from the other day. Playing house together. We are trying really hard to teach Lily to share her toys with Dillon. Some days she does better than others.
When we got home from Walsh Farms Lily started acting sick. She had a temperature of 103.5 and she's really sick. She's been on the couch all afternoon. Anson is giving her a cool bath right now. We thought it was from her flu shot (mist) yesterday but now we aren't sure. I'm not feeling that great either.
Cute picture of Dillon from today.
