Scary little cuties

Halloween is coming and we're getting ready! (I had to bribe Sammie with candy to even get her to pose for these pictures!)
Look at the size of this boy-he is going to be bigger than Sammie within the year if he keeps eating/growing the way he is! I think their heads are about the same size-sheesh.

Dinner with friends

It is a long standing tradition that the Souths and the Avilas get together for a Halloween dinner. You see, Aaron really really loves Halloween. So we let him cook us a yummy dinner, entertain us with fun Halloween movies and then we dress the kids in their costumes for an early previewing.
We have been doing this for 10 years now!!! (The movie selection was a little different before kids!)
Thanks for the fun night Avilas!!!

3 months!

Happy 3 months little guy! We can't believe how fast time is flying by. You are such a happy boy and that makes us happy:)
You are starting to play with toys more and you are very talkative these days.
We love watching you grow.
We love you Cole!

Kids DO say the funniest things...

This morning Samantha was getting ready for breakfast..her usual-yogurt. We have had her little picnic table inside since it has been so hot out-well, now that the weather is great the table is back outside.
So this morning she said, "I want to eat at my little table". So I told her now that the weather is nice your table is outside. And she said, "Yeah-and when the weather is mean my table can come back in."
I just about died laughing. She was probably wondering what was so funny-she just cracks me up!

Firsts

Today was Cole's first trip to the zoo. He slept through most of it but seemed to enjoy himself:)
It got us reminiscing so of course I had to post some pics of Sammie's first zoo excursion.
Then we came home and Samantha had a few sips from her first crazy straw cup...which she loves by the way:)
