Yummy! and other baby cuteness.


Bennet just started eating baby food and he is loving it. I haven't found anything that he won't eat yet, even the spinach rutabaga baby food pictured here.  He makes a huge mess but he is sleeping better at night, so I can't complain too much. 


We had Bennet's baby picture taken a few weeks ago. He is a very photogenic baby and we had no trouble getting him to smile for the camera. I bought a nice frame and, while I was debating on where to hang it, Bennet found it on the floor.  As you can see, he was very taken with the baby in the picture. He was so excited, he and the baby in the picture smiled and laughed at each other for a while before I took the baby in the picture away.  Once I clean the finger prints off of him, I will hang him up so he can smile at all of us.

Halloween 2013

We had a fantastic Halloween!  We went to 4 parties, with trick or treating at two of them, in addition to trick or treating around the neighborhood Halloween night.
 At our ward trunk or treat, we all dressed up for the fun.

We had a lot of fun carving pumpkins the Sunday before Halloween. Evan and Mommy carved a silly face into our pumpkin and Daddy carved a scary face into his. Evan didn't like the scary face very much, but it didn't seem to bother the squirrels as that is the one they decided to eat.



On Halloween Day after going to a friend's birthday party in the morning, we headed into the city to go trick or treating at Daddy's law firm. Evan loves taking the metro into the city. We counted all the stops till we got to Daddy's work.













All in all, Evan made off with more candy than we could eat in a year.

We pulled out the shark costume that Evan wore when he was a baby and, though Bennet isn't crawling yet, he still makes a very cute shark.


Happy Halloween.
