Pumpkin Time!

Time for pumpkin carving! This was the kids' first time and they loved it!
Scooping out the seeds
Dig in there!
We got a great surprise too over the weekend~ cousins showed up!

Painting the pumpkins is always a good option for the little ones....until they paint themselves.

Carving out the faces was the most fun!

Almost finished....
FINISHED!!! With a tea light candle inside, this jack-o-lantern is ready for the front steps!

Our first week as a family of five

So as adjusting goes, I think we are doing well. It's only been a week, but the kids so far really like having Benjamin around. They like holding him and giving him "nose kisses". For the most part I haven't seen a lot of jealously which is good so far!

This is how our mornings start out right now, holding the baby
Isabelle especially LOVES holding baby Ben
Snuggle time with daddy in the evening is always on the docket
And, of course, when I need a moment alone, Daddy entertains, with getting Ben to sleep!
Mommy and Ben
Cuddled up so sweet!
Playing the the big pile of fall

Jump in!
Benjamin's first sponge bath. He wasn't a fan.

So content.

Move it! Shake! Shake!!
Proud Daddy with his two boys!
