HALLOWEEN!!!!
Thanks so much to Grandma Mary Ellen and Mema Mary who helped make this an extra-special Halloween. We had a great time taking Jake and Ruth out trick-or-treating. We took the kids to Laura Novak this morning for portraits, and then went shopping. What a perfect day - no work and all play! :)

Grandma Mary Ellen and Mema Mary will be coming to help Jake enjoy his first Halloween - we can't wait! We will also be taking Jake and Ruthie to see Laura Novak for special Halloween portraits tomorrow morning!

Jake's Newest Trick...
This kid cracks me up on a daily basis. Not only can he chew on his binkie while sucking down a bottle, but he has made his binkie into a teething toy and a pacifier. HA!

Interesting things about having sons...
Funniest email I have read in a while. Had to share...
You find out interesting things when you have sons, like:
1.) A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
2.) If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
3.) A 3-year old boy’s voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
4.) If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42-pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape.
5.) The motor is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
6.) You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on.
a) When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit.
b) A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
c) The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn’t stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
7.) When you hear the toilet flush and the words “uh oh”, it’s already too late.
8.) Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
9.) A six-year old boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year old man says they can only do it in the movies.
10.) Certain Lego’s will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year old Boy.
11.) Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
12.) Super glue is forever.
13.) No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can’t walk on water.
14.) Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15.) VCR’s do not eject “PB &J” sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.
16.) Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17.) Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
18.) You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
19.) Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens.
20.) The fire department in Austin , TX has a 5-minute response time.
21.) The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
22.) It will, however, make cats dizzy.
23.) Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.
24.) 80% of Women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without kids.
25.) 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid.

Big Thanks!
Big thanks go out to our friends Dave and Nicole, who were Jake's first non-family babysitters on Friday night. They were gracious enough to let us have a last-minute night out at the movies. Jake had a great time playing with you guys and Madelyn! Thanks again. :)
Jake and the Giant Pumpkin
Here are our pictures from over the weekend. The weather was so nice and we had a great time spending the day with our favorite little guy in the rolling hills of, yes, Delaware. We went up to the very edges of our tiny state (thisclose Pennsylvania) to Ramsey's Farm in Wilmington. It was our first time there and we had a great time going through the pumpkin patch, picking out pumpkins, and then going on a hayride through the corn maze. We took lots of pictures - even got one of the elusive NEW TOOTH!
Yes, the pumpkin is actually bigger than the baby...
Jake reconsiders his ban on eating real food.
Beautiful scenery - I hardly knew we were in Delaware! (kidding)
Farmer Jake-a-boops.
Cool pic of Jake (in Ralph's sunglasses).
A great picture of my handsome hubby. Identical mouths!
More beautiful scenery, this time from the hayride.
More for the 'hands and feet' series.
The TOOTH!!!
My brother Danny?
Jake waves buh-bye!
