Pumpkin

We decided to carve Charlie's first jack o lantern this year. He was curious.



Why so sticky?




What is it?



But he loved to look at it lit up.

Box

Why do we buy toys? When he plays with a big box and my hairbrush?

While Daddy was Gone

Boots are fun even inside!



Oh, Mama, just because it's pouring is no reason to not put on the boots and go play!



Please, for a sad boy?




Watching for Daddy to come home.

Daddy's Boy

Why would Daddy lie on the floor if not so Charlie and Owen could climb on him?



The big boys walking at the zoo




Checking out the chimps



Rhinos are so big!








And a token shot of Mom, while Charlie pets a chicken

Fun

Reading the Bible "bah bah"



Such a big boy in his jeans!




Opening and closing Mom's door, which is also where the unfortunate forehead bruise came from

Post-nap hair

This is what a 3 hour nap does to your hair. I had to wet his brush to get it down.



Daddies don't mind giving hugs to boys with bedhead.

Fireman Charlie

Boots for the rain and northern Christmas

Winter Jammies

What can you do in your footie pjs? Play with Owen...



Go on a hunt...



Look for your daddy...




Find him!

Cause and Effect

First, there's a yummy brownie.

Remarkably, this is followed by the need for a good tooth-cleaning.
