Grayson & Liam - October Pictures

We had a fun month in October.  Our friends Phil and Kat and their son Pax were in town so we went to the Museum of Science & Industry.  Ethan was in town and had fun taking the boys around the museum.  We went to dinner at Ed Debevics for Paxton's birthday, which is especially fun since my BFF Allison and I used to go their with her grandparents when we were kids.  

Grayson loves trucks and helicopters.  They are doing work in our neighborhood and Grayson was lucky enough to sit in the construction vehicle and snap a few pictures.  The workers let him get up there while they were on break and he had so much fun.  There was a helicopter that had an emergency landing at a store and Grayson got to see it up close.  He was even wearing his airplane outfit Oma got him with his bomber jacket.    


Miscellaneous Pictures from October:

Grayson loves his big brother Ethan and had fun with Daddy and Ethan at Home Depot.  Ethan let him hang out on the shopping cart while he pushed him around the store.

Grayson and Gabe love to Facetime.  Allison caught a cute picture of them in action.

Grayson sometimes pretends to be a baby like his brother Liam.  He says Goo Goo Ga Ga, sucks on Liam's paci and gets in his rock 'n play.  He thinks it's pretty funny to pretend to be a baby.  He loves looking at old videos and pictures of himself when he was a baby.

We took our first family selfie

JuJu came home for a visit and had fun with the boys

Grayson started a bad habit of wiping his mouth with his arm and got a rash on his face.  We are working on stopping this habit that started when he had a cold and was wiping his nose.

Grayson got a haircut and looked so handsome with his new hair due






























Halloween

We spent Halloween at the Ohlander's house this year.  Craig was visiting Julia at Iowa for parents weekend so Oma and I took the boys to the suburbs to see Cora, Elin and Gabe.  Allison's sisters were also there with their kids Marek, Lucas, Mila and Noa.  The weather was not the best, but the rain stopped for a little.  I took Grayson trick-or-treating to about 10 houses and he had a great time.  We even took a selfie for fun.  This year Grayson was Batman, Liam was Robin, Mommy was Cat Woman and Oma was a cat. 

Daddy and Grayson had fun carving pumpkins, but they didn't exactly turn out the way we planned so they went straight to the trash.  Maybe next year. :) 

Notes on pictures:

Grayson and Liam took pictures with our neighbors' kids, Ali (Cat Woman) and Jack (Spiderman) 

Liam wore both of Grayson's old Halloween outfits, one said Mommy's Monster and the other was a cutie pie outfit with a bat on it.  I had to do a side by side shot of the two of them wearing the Mommy's Monster outfit.  They were so cute and definitely look a lot alike.
