October Part 2

We all got to go over to the Firestation and play some carnival games and have fun for the day. The Firemen throw this carnival each fall to help raise some money. The games are only 25 cents though so it is fun for the kids and fun for us. Coster and Cutler with McGruff..... funny that he is still around right?


Cutler playing the "bob for ducks" game. He just liked putting his hands in the water.


Coster showing off his spider on his hand


Coster concentrating really hard while the lady painted a spider for him.


Coster searching for the gold coins in the treasure hunt


Cutler playing the fishing game. I like this picture because Cutler is looking at his prize like "what the crap is this supposed to be?"


Coster playing the fishing game


This picture makes me laugh becasue I LOVE Coster's pose in the background showing off his Hulk underwear. Cutler is just trying to run away ;)


Cutler even gets in on the underwear action. Well this really was all Clay's doing. I mean c'mon he is wearing mismatched pajamas and the Thor underpants (as Clay calls them) are over the top. Leave it to CLay!


Coster.... theses are his favorite "underpants"


Sorry these are in reverse order but I am just lucky to even get them on here. ;) Coster and CUtler asleep in the car after the pumkin patch fieldtrip. So cute!


Coster's preschool class got to go to the pumpkin patch for a fieldtrip and Cutler and I went with them. It was a fun little place. Here is Coster with his class.


Coster even sat his pumpkin down to give Cutler a stick.... now that is a nice big brother!


Coster found his pumpkin!


The boys out in the patch.






Cutler has really been doing good at feeding himself, but sometimes I think he just likes to make a mess to see what I will do. Look at that mischevious face! Eating yogurt


messy boy


The boys playing outside... note: Isn't it nice that Cutler is chewing on the same bat as below.


Loves digging in the dirt!



Coster loves throwing dirt clods. Thank goodness for the bathtub each night!

Coster's First Day of Preschool

Coster all ready to go to Preschool. He even picked out his own backpack which you can't see in this picture but he was pretty excited to wear it.

Clay got to be there for his first day too.

Mom and Coster

This is the ONLY picture we could even half way get of Cutler and Coster together on his first day. I guess that Cutler was too excited to stand still for 2 seconds.


We all got to take Coster into Preschool that morning and help him get comfortable with his new teacher (which goes to church with us, so he kind of knows her) and the new kids. I thought it was going to be a pretty rough process because Coster usually sticks right by me all day long. Especially if we are out and about around other people. Well it only took him about 5 minutes and then I told him that I would be back to get him and to have fun. He just said "OK Mom" Pretty good! The crazy thing is that I have never been away from Coster for that long before. A whole 3 hours!! I know I am crazy right? But I kept thinking to myself " this is so weird" I went and picked him up and he came running over to Me and Cutler and gave us both a huge hug. He talked the whole way home about his day. He mostly talked about the dogs that the teacher has at her house. Funny what kids remember right?

Some Randoms....

Coster is so excited to get his little erasers ou tof the oven that he made.

Sitting in front of the oven with the light on unti they are done..... so exciting!

Most days around the time that Clay is going to be coming home this is what the front window looks like. Coster, Cutler, and even Turf sit and wait for Dad to come home. So cute!

Coster and Cutler watching a show

Clay had some big boulders delivered and some rock to finish up a few things in the back yard. The boys were in heaven with all the dirt and rocks around. Cutler riding in the wheel barrow and Coster is hiding in between the big rocks if you can't see him.

Cutler going for a ride

The boys playing in the little pile of rocks

Coster cooling down by laying in the rocks

Cutler getting a drink to cool off ;)

Coster had this on his head one day! Goof

Ha ha I love this picture! My mom has a lot of pictures of me growing up giving what we call the "scuz" and Coster is doing the same thing. Brings back old memories.

The boys playing in their tents, look at Coster's face....

Cutler saying "Oh no!"

Coster keeps trying to perfect the cross eyed look....

A picture of the house

Cutler playing by the daisies


Coster liked this bush/tree when it as blooming, so he wanted a picture by it
