It's not easy being Sean


It's hard to be the little brother. You can be just laying on your tummy, working on lifting your head


and then BAM - your older brother gets you (no infants were harmed in the shooting of these pictures)


That brother pretends to be nice and sweet, but you know that arm could choke you at any moment, hence the look of fear.


Even kisses are suspect

and then your mom makes you sit in the same swing with him...seriously?

Happy Sean


Sometimes it is hard to get a good picture of Sean because his brother is "unintentionally" mangling his face...


But when he is alone, he is starting to play to the camera too...

Halloween Parade

Halloween parade at school today. Dylan dressed as Lula and they went trick or treating around the shopping center.













Sean wanted to be in the parade too

first moves

Sean is a roller. It's effortless...

The action happens in the last 20 seconds - for some reason I can't upload the edited versions from my flip software.

Sewing machine redeemed



I turn my back on Sean in the crib for one minute and look what happens....

that is a true thumbsucker if I ever saw one..

In other news...

Last year we (Ann and I) made Dylan a froggy costume

it was not easy and I vowed not to do it again. Until February when pregnancy brain struck and I decided I could definitely make BOTH kids costumes. So I ordered patterns and fabric thinking I was getting a great head start. Then it was busy season, then I was a large uncomfortable pregnant person, then I had a newborn .... you get the idea. So we started the costumes late, and then realized that Dylan had a growth spurt and his costume was 2" too short. We thought about still doing Sean's, but it was pretty complicated and at the end of the day he isn't doing much treat or treating this year. So we threw in the towel and I went to the internet with my credit card.
But I needed to accomplish something with at least some of the fabric I had bought. So today I made Dylan a dinosaur hat..

I was able to do it in under 2 hours with both kids - not too shabby. So why not push the envelope and add a dinosaur shirt?



2 projects between lunch and dinner (and I actually made dinner too). Not a bad day.

Pumpkin Heads

We went pumpkin picking today. Dylan LOVED every minute - Sean, eh, he just really wanted to nap.
