Just Leafing Around

Reagan had so much fun last year playing in the leaves so we made sure to get some more pictures this year and Wil got his first chance to play in the leaves (made from our 1 pear tree and 2 burning bushes...isn't it sad most of our leaves are from bushes!). The first picture is Reagan in her "nest" we created from trimmings from 2 of our other bushes.Wil woke up from his nap in time to enjoy the great weather and to get in some pictures!

Happy Halloween

Some pictures of our little penguin and scary ghost...Before we left the house

At Hy-Vee

Downtown where we met up with Miles and Erika (and Shannon and Craig too)!

The aftermath

Homecoming Festivities

We have a great gathering of college friends for Homecoming this year (too bad I don't really have any pictures to prove it!). Took the kids to the parade then Reagan got lunch and a nap before Tailgating and game time! It was fun even though we lost to Texas (I think it was pretty obvious we would lose to them).

It was so cold for the parade...but not sure why Reagan looks a little like a pimp!

Here is Jess posing with Drew and Reagan!

Here is a picture of our food spread it was very good, but could have been more!

Katie Killion didn't make it to the game (neither did Wil) but she was still tuckered out!

Wil's First Tooth

It has been awhile since I have posted (again) but I have a picture of Wil's first tooth! He first showed his little pearly white (bottom right) on Friday Oct 9th and ever since then it has been getting bigger and bigger! He is on the verge of getting both of the top front teeth next!

Exciting Day

We had a great day yesterday, from some great weather and play time outside,

Reagan took this picture all by herself!

to hot air balloons (one of which landed in our back yard),

to some really big spiders and a preying mantis on our deck screen door!

New Stuff

Last week Jeani and I went with the kids to KC for a funeral for my Great Aunt Louise, it was a nice visit with family and while we were there we got to meet Katie Killion who is now 10 days old. It was great to see Jamie, Matt, Drew and Katie. Reagan enjoyed her time to play with Drew and I think Wil has a crush on Katie already! I thought I would add a couple of the pictures that we took! Enjoy.

Wil is 6 months old

So Tuesday we went to the dr. for Wil's 6 month check up! He has been on solid foods for 2 months now, and he loves it. Some foods he has had so far are cereals, sweet potatos, green beans, bananas, peas, applesauce, carrots, and pear and apple juice. He is doing great and is growing like a weed. Here are his stats...

Wt - 15 lb 14 oz (30%)

Ht - 26 1/4" (60%)

Head - 43cm (45%)

Wi is spending some time in the exercauser!Are you ready for some football? (he just loves to grab for anything in our hands...this was one thing he was not allowed to mouth! LOL)

He really likes Reagan's old walker and today he even got it to move, using the box to help him reach the floor!
