Major Update

Figured I had better get pictures downloaded before I got so far behind I bagged blogging all together.

Chad working on the paper mache' spider project he wanted to do with the boys. Of course, the boys lasted---oh-10 minutes. So Chad spent the rest of the evening on his own. Don't worry, Cam and Spencer would come in every so often to check on the progress of their spiders.

A bit too messy for my clean boys.
We had grandparents over for our annual chili and pumpkin carving. Spencer kept squinting for pictures--so we told him to open his eyes wide.
a pumpkin masterpiece
The spider minus the black paint.
Spencer showing off Jack Skellington.

Cute little fam
Cam's halloween parade
Spencer showing his muscles. He RARELY hams it up for the camera--I got 3 or 4 great shots of him being silly.
Helping with Grandpa's trunk or treat---as expected for my kids, they liked handing out the candy more that collecting and eating it.
Cameron's 6th Birthday. So fun!!! Chad took the day off of work--and was able to take Cameron to class--oh he loved that. After school we went to a movie and had both fam's met us at Red Robin for dinner.
For the life of us--Chad and I can NOT remember what movie we saw--we are getting old.
This one's out of order. After the trunk or treat we came back and watched Nightmare Before Christmas while Cam handed out candy to the stragglers.
This one is blurry because I was laughing. Cameron doesn't like "soft presents" ie. clothes. So Grammy wrapped his soft presents in a big box. Let's just say, he was bummed (with a good sense of humor about it all).
A candle in the egg-free Snickerdoodles Cameron requested.

Spencer is loving pre-school and all the fun projects.
Cameron's friend party. Pizza at Two-Jack's. It was a hit and they gave us a killer deal--seeing as how we eat there EVERY Saturday (seriously, every Saturday).
This has been the second year in a row the weather has been nice enough to keep all the kids outside. My house is just not large enough for ten 6 year olds.
The boys put their bean bags in the closet and Cameron read a book to Spencer--so cute.
Cameron was not happy about me making him put on his indian costume--and even more upset when I wanted a picture of it.
Sunday morning fun!!! My little rapper.
Watching A Christmas Story while Mommy and Daddy finished decorating the tree. Spencer sat with his arm around Cam for the longest time.
Modeling in front of the tree.
Grandma trying to give Spencer the courage he needed to sit on Santa's lap.
Nerf guns!!
A little bit of DRAMA. Cam let Grammy pull out one of his front teeth---and regretted it after. I couldn't handle it and tricked him into letting me pull the other one right before bed. Yah,,,he really wasn't happy about it. I still need to get an after picture. He looks so cute and has a darling little lisp.
Gingerbread houses with Grammy and Grampy--before the tooth extractions.
Hmmm...all caught up.
