Happy Halloween

Trick-or-Treat is just two days away! We have candy to hand out and a costume for Kenny (his fat little monkey belly makes it look like we've been feeding him candy:-).

My Music Man

Kenny loves his little xylophone--especially since it has piano keys (he'd rather chew on the stick than use it for music!?

Sarah's Girl's Weekend

I got a much needed break from my mommy world and visited my good friend Melanie in Milwaukee. We had a wonderful weekend that kicked off with the Pistons vs Bucks basketball game. We chatted through most of the game though...oops!?:-)

Kenny & Darin's "Guy's Weekend"

Darin & Kenny had a great weekend without me! Darin dressed Kenny in his Michigan outfit and headed to G&G Bolthouse's house to watch the game. Too bad it wasn't much of a showing for Michigan.....at least Kenny looked cute:-)

More Peas Please!

Today was Kenny's introduction to vegetables. We started with peas and he did surprisingly well! Let's hope this continues....

Fall Festival

Today was GORGEOUS! Kenny and I had a fall festival and spent the entire afternoon outside--raking, planting bulbs, and PLAYING:-)

Fall Cold:-(

I took Kenny to his first baby shower and he was a complete wreck. But the mysterious behavior was solved when his nose turned into a spigot after we got home. Poor boy is congested....not exactly what we needed on top of teething:-( Kenny's been a trooper though, and still loves his jumper despite his illness!

Basket Time

Darin and I have both been taking advantage of the toy basket for corralling Kenny:-) He's getting better with sitting up every day though, so this stage is sure to be short:-(

Cozy Strolling

It was downright cold here last week, so Kenny and I had to bundle up for our late afternoon walk. Kenny quickly fell asleep in his stroller--it's no wonder as warm and cozy as he was. Thanks for the "Bundle Me" Aunt Caroline!

A fall walk...

It was a chilly but beautiful Sunday afternoon. We decided to bundle up for a walk in the nature preserve near us.

The fresh air, exercise, and company were wonderful (not to mention the beautiful colors:-)

Kenny was worn out by it all....

Kenny's 1st Bike Ride

Basket Boy

Grandma & Grandpa did so many fun things with Kenny during their visit including putting him in a basket to play! It was perfect--he didn't tip over and the toys couldn't get away. We can't wait for them to come back and teach us more tricks!

Kenny's Baptism

Grandpa's Here!

Grandpa arrived a couple of days after Grandma. That's when the big-time spoiling started. Let's just say that Kenny had his first chocolate ice cream....and there was talk of pizza!? What a loved little boy:-)

Kenny's 5 Mo Pics

Grandma & I took Kenny for more pictures today. It was a long process, but he did really well and the results are too cute. (Thanks for the picture perfect outfit Kate:-)

Grandma's Here!

It didn't take long for Kenny to get Grandma down on the floor and playing with all the fun toys. We're going to have a FUN weekend:-)

Daddy's Remote

Kenny has been eying the remote control for weeks. I finally let him have a shot at it today.....

Shhhhh.....don't tell Daddy:-)

Swimming Video

We captured Kenny's first swimming experience on video....makes me want a pool:-)

Florida FUN!

We had a fabulous weekend at Clearwater Beach! Now back to Michigan....and FALL!?

Kenny's 1st Ballgame

We took Kenny to the last game in the Tigers-Twins series. It was a rough game all around! The Tigers didn't do so hot, and Kenny was a handful! We still enjoyed the beautiful fall day and the first of what will hopefully be many family baseball outings.
