Pumpkin carving

We haven't had much spare time lately with John being in school so we had to squeeze some pumpkin carving in today... even though I just cleaned the floor yesterday.  Just let it go right?

Here are our somewhat rushed results:





 

Isaac conquers the crib...

 On Saturday we went to my mom's and borrowed half a bunk bed to transition Isaac from the crib to the bed.  We recently decided to push this issue when we were sleeping at my mom's a couple weeks ago (when John was out of town and the kids were out of school) and I found that Isaac spans the entire length of a pack and play.  We are traveling for Thanksgiving in a few weeks so we needed to hurry and get him comfortable with the bed situation well before we leave.  I decided to buy him the ugliest but most appealing sheets I could find for him--Lightning Mcqueen.  I'm hoping to get a nice comforter soon to cover them up but haven't found one yet that I like.  So far, so good.  He went to sleep just the same as his crib for the past two nights so hopefully that keeps going.  I think the girls were more excited then he was about his new bed.

Bubs

There are some words that Isaac says that crack me up that I want to always remember.

For CLEAN UP he says, "Meek-up, meek-up!"

For POOP he says, "Poot."

For MORE he says, "Om,"--since John hasn't mastered Isaac vocab yet he will say this about 20 times pushing his plate or bowl until I say, "John, he wants more!"

For LUCY he says, "Sucy."

The other day in the car I asked the girls if they were buckled.  Right after that Isaac said, "Sucy buckle?  E-ther buckle?"  Glad I have a second in command when it comes to buckling up.

I am glad he is starting to talk a little more--maybe it will cut down on the whines and wimpers right?
