Lia


So, some of you already know...but we have adopted a beautiful baby girl! We are in Michigan picking her up. I will not be home for a few days, but Flavio will be home on Sat. We can't even explain how amazing this whole process has been. We have been blessed beyond belief. We can't wait for you to meet her! LOL

Taking care of Isaac


So we have had cute little Isaac Crowther for that last few days. He is really cute and so much fun, I do have to admit though, that I forgot what is was like to have a baby in the house and it has been good for me to get back into the baby mode. Hannah is having so much fun with him and has decided all of her old baby toys are now are favorite toys...but at least she shares them with him. He is a little busy body of energy and is so smiley! He even likes Flavio, which isn't a normal thing, most kids run the other way. :) But Isaac just plays with him and smiles at him. We think he is so cute and it gets us excited for another baby of our own someday.

Cornbelly Fun, fUn, fuN


Isn't she cute...even when she sits in a vat of corn...
Here is Flavio, not sure which way to go...wait isn't this the kiddie maze.

Levitation...
So, for those of you who went to Cornbelly's Maize, you know what I am saying when I say, "FUN!" If you were not able to go this year, I suggest you try to go next year. It was so much fun. Hannah just loved it. They had so many things for kids of all ages to do there. We were really surprised at how much fun it was. Halloween was really fun this year. I love having a child to share these experiences with, they really make life more fun! I love you Hannah! Did I mention the word fun enough?

Cookie Monster Cute

So here is Hannah being cute again...my mom bought this Cookie Monster toy, Tickle Me Cookie Monster, and she has now made him her TV buddy. They hold hands and everything. I just love all the cute things she comes up with...what will she do next? Don't worry, I am sure I will post it. :)

Pumpkin carving....



So we carved our pumpkins last night...Hannah wanted a heart, Flavio did the batman logo, and I tried carving a witch. We had fun doing them, although Hannah just wanted to eat the pumpkin's insides the whole time, they turned out great....I just wish I would have been as smart as the Sniders and took pictures while we were carving....maybe next year.

Halloween for a two year old...

I love this picture...she really caught the idea...



So, how many things do you think a two year could do for Halloween? Well, this year this two year old has done, seen and tasted what the funness (new word) of Halloween has to offer and then some. Granted, I am sure most of your kids have done the same stuff, but wow, she really loves this holiday and I don't blame her. We are not done yet, tomorrow we are off to Thanksgiving Point for the fun there. We want to thank everyone who has made this a fun Halloween for our precious little Hannah...we love that little Japanese girl. Happy Halloween everyone!
