Discovery Science Center...Halloween Time

this place gets more and more fun with the turn of every season. and now that Caleb can sit up pretty well he can get in on the action too.

Pumpkin Patch

I know this is super lame but we took the kids to a pumpkin patch so i could take super cute pictures and not have to buy a zillion pumpkins and hay bails. we were suppose to go to cal poly's pumpkin patch but the kiddies got super sick so we stayed home. this pumpkin patch was my desperate attempt to get some cute pictures and i have to say i got some awesome pictures. my 2 almost 3 year old now understands what a jumper is and this pumpkin patch had like 15 different ones. i did eventually give in and let her go play in 1 jumper. the "tickets" you had to purchase were 5 dollars each and they could choose one jumper and jump in it for 5 minutes. it was such a rip off but it sure did make her just a little bit happier and her day just a little bit brighter.          

Pumpkin Painting

when Madison's first Halloween came around 3 years ago she was almost 11 months old. plenty old enough to participate in pumpkin carving some how but i was not giving her a knife or even a "safety" knife so i scowered the internet for another option and found painting pumpkins. it's been a big hit every year. This year I decided to get Caleb a small pumpkin and let him try it. I was pretty sure he was going to just eat all the paints since he's at that age where everything goes in his mouth. much to my surprise he actually painted the pumpkin by sticking his hands in the paint and rubbing it on the pumpkin. It was super fun both of the kids pumpkins came out great, Madison tried her hand with a paint brush this year and did pretty good.

 She loves to paint!

Did i mention he painted himself as well as the pumpkin!

Big Boy bath time

Now that Caleb can sit up in the bath tub all by himself and he doesn't need any support bath time is getting so much more fun and he can take a bath with sister which they both seem to enjoy. I'm not going to lie the bathtub is getting a little tight and we don't have a real bathtub in the house only two walk in showers so looks like bath time will probably have to be separate from now on.

Chino Children Museum with friends

Madison and Caleb are getting big enough now that we can go places and they are fun for both. we needed something to do on a Saturday and the chino children's museum is right around the corner and always a big hit with both the kids.

 

i'm in love with this picture of Caleb on the police motorcycle at the museum. 

 Madison loves to play house at the children's museum.
