Shaking, clapping and Dancing!

Anthony LOVES music! Anna plays and he looks so funny shaking his head, clapping, singing, and dancing.

He was dancing with the scarf.

Bailando con su hermanita y su papi!

Mas musica maestro!

Working Hard and Hardly working...

Picking up more leaves! That's what the kids were doing when play got in the way.

Climbing trees with Keiana.

We have over 14 mature trees in our back yard, that is why we have sooooo much clean up to do before winter.

Since Anthony learned to crawl he has been helping a lot as well. He likes to take the dishes out of the dishwasher...before they are clean.

Anna tells him how good of a job he is doing and he loves it!

Snow is suppoused to happen after the clean up is done...well not in this case, we woke up with plenty one day, not much warning.

Anna made a Snowman, she remembered her friend Yun. "Maybe Yun can help us next time."

Snowball fighting! Poor Chief and Sheva, only if they have hands instead of paws.

Back inside, Anna makes her own bed, and she is so proud.

Teaching and Reading.

We bought this Magnet/white board for Anna's bedroom. She loves it so much, and she calls herself Anthony's teacher. She is in the process of teaching Anthony how to write HER name.
She also knows how to write "Joel" and "Yeni". She says those are her mom and daddy's names.

Hands on educational materials. Anthony enjoys just having Anna by his side for the most part.

Reading some of Curious George's adventures, these are Anna's favorite books.

And seems like Anthony enjoys them a lot, too.

Puse a Anthony en la cama, para recoger un poco el desastre de la recamara, cuando voltee, el habia agarrado este libro y estaba hojeandolo con sorprendente habilidad.

But, like any other boy his age, when Anthony gets bored, he grabs the phone! Anna's lessons sometimes take hours!

Stunt Child!

Got Leaves?

Got kids?

Use them! And let the fun begin!

With a pile that big you can't miss!

We better cover our eyes!

Happy Halloween!

Wednesday and Pugsley Addams made their appearance this year for Halloween.

Anna loved her custome! Anthony did not understand why she was behaving so silly, he just sat there, waiting for her to get closer so he could pull all that hair!

Nadie sabe lo que paso con el Dulce, pero parece que Wednesday y Pugsley se lo comieron todo. Lo niegan, pero la evidencia es clara.

"Trick or Treat my fellow Americans!...Hello, my name is Wednesday". Thank You, Julie!

After trick or treating it was all about music! Anthony loves the sound of the guitar, so he claps and dances when Daddy and Anna play for him.

Getting Ready for Halloween!

Feliz Dia de Brujas! Surprise inside the Pumpkin!

Ok, We admited, Anthony...carved the pumpkin. Tan pronto como Anthony se encontro dentro de la calabaza, a comer!

El estaba Feliz!

Bret gave us this Big Pumkin, so Anthony would fit in it. And he did!

Ahora vamos a cortar las flores hermanita.

Toques finales.

And We were done! Listo!

No solo esculpimos calabazas, tambien manzanas...hay que seguir la diversion hasta la cocina, tu sabes.

A new look for the season. Anna, found the scissors, cut hers and her brother's hair.

Playing with leaves never gets old!

Having fun with mulch at the playground.
