Being the mom to 3 boys, I have learned cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.

Happy Fall Y'all!

Dominic was being very "photo" cooperative today. Doesn't he look so BIG in this picture. Hard to believe my baby boy is nearly 5 years old!

Luke thought he needed to have these mums in front of his eyes today. I was never quick enough to snap a picture without them there.

The boys named the girly scarecrow "Anna". They said that is because their "Nanna" gave it to them. Nanna is their babysitter.
As you can see in this picture, the boys are in front of one the giant pumpkins from our newphew's pumpkin patch.


I just had to get some shots of the boys with our gorgeous mums. Luckily the early frost didn't so too much damage.



We had a great time visiting our nephew, Nathan's, pumpkin patch. Nathan has a knack for growing very large and round pumpkins. Dominic wanted this HUGE one - we placed it close to the house in hopes it doesn't get stolen before Halloween.

The boys also decided on costumes. They were both going to be something we already had - but I "allowed" them down the Halloween aisle in Walmart the other day (FYI - BIG parenting mistake!). So now Dominic is going to be MegaTron (the boss of the mean transformers) and Luke is going to be Optimus Prime (the boss of the nice transformers). They are both super excited and have been wearing the costumes often.

Yes, Dominic does look so big! Guess that's likely because he is growing bigger & bigger everyday, but I agree. That particular pic does even make him look bigger. & Luke too, he is growing so fast! I love the photo with the mums in front of his eyes...that is SO Luke. Very cute. Love that HUGE pumpkin! Mark can make his famous pumpkin pies in spades even if there is a nationwide shortage of canned pumpkin! LOL.
