HALLOWEEN 2010

3rd times the charm getting this posted. We had 2 other pumpkins, this one is Richie's he had a BLAST, Nathan thought it was funny. He was a UPS man this year and had a small box that we put a hole in for his candy. He kept pushing the candy in further to make more room. We didn't go to very many houses because of how cold and wet it was, but it worked out nice, we went home early and had homemade chili for dinner. Kids were showing up non-stop until 8:30 and then we turned off our light and called it a night. It was loads of fun and Nathan thought it was so cool to poor all of his candy out on the floor. He did really good at posing for pictures, I only wish he hadn't gotten a hold of the camera and deleted the best one. I made him take them over. We were waiting for Daddy and he was carrying his box around the house tucked under his arm and I just barely got a picture of it. So cute, he is getting so big I can't believe it.

Family Pictures 2010

Here are some candid pictures of Nathan which I really liked. Thank you to my friend Amie for her amazing talent and patience. It was a long day and between her two year old and mine it was hard to get them to want to sit still long enough to take a photo. :)

The family ones turned out good too. We were happy to have Nathan smiling on the bench, it makes it more fun, when your having a good time. Amie said the field was taken down the next week, it was good timing!

Re-Cap

Well.....Needless to say it has been a busy year and I have not made this blog a priority. Richie has been hit and miss with work although things seem to be looking up which is GREAT, and I have been working full time with the same company and trying to soak in as much time with Nathan when I get off. He has been potty training off and on and has been doing really well, I just wish he would PERMANENTLY Stick with it. At this point I will take what I can get, it's progress. It has been a fun summer seeing family from California and going camping with Richie's family. I'm glad that the days are getting a little cooler it was almost too hot to go to the park and try to play. Nathan has become quite the little helper at home and always helps cook dinner and clean up. He loves to "HOP" everywhere right now and I can't wait to get him back in his tumbling class hopefully in the next month or so. Here are some more recent pictures of Nathan giving the dinosaur he got for his 2nd birthday kisses (FEB), Him looking at the Stingrays at the Shark Reef in Las Vegas (MARCH) and Daddy holding him proudly when we went camping (JULY).
