Fall fun

On Sunday Walter helped Jeff rake-up leaves, I thought he looked so cute I had to snap this picture. They also took the camaro for a drive, this is a view of the bridge from Hancock to Houghton and the next one is of Walter sitting in the Camaro.






























Yesterday I took the kids to the pumpkin patch. We picked out two pumpkins one small one that Walter liked because it had dogs painted on them (he thought the blue one looked like blue on blues clues) and a large one. That evening Jeff conjured-up a scarecrow for the large one. I tried to get Walter to sit by it today to take his picture and he was "scared" of it. (He is excited about dressing up for Halloween but is terrified of the decorations and masks.) The scarecrow is holding a pop can and he said "mama did he drink all that pop?" Later we will carve the big pumpkin and use that as the head.














This other picture is of Walter playing with his airplanes that Mama and Daddy helped him put together. He said "they are all at an airplane party." He has had an interest in airplanes for some time now.










Last but not least I took a picture of Rose E with the Mr. Potato head in her car. Many toys have been getting free rides in these wheels lately. She has also been trying to open our bathroom drawers to get out combs and brushes, so I bought her her own to play with and this Mr. Potato head even got his hair brushed.
She has definitely been into helping too. Lately when I load the dishwasher she will go and get clean Tupperware out of the drawer hand it to me and say "thanks." Then today she spilled some milk on the table so I wiped it up with some nearby napkins. Then she wanted her own napkin so I gave her one and then watched her spill a little on the table so she could wipe it up herself. This one sure does have a mind of her own already!
