November 2015 - Happy Thanksgiving

November 1st - Finally a Shower!!

I finally convinced Owen to take a shower at the Community Center after swim lessons.  As long as he can have his goggles and his snorkel (aka orange smoothie straw) he is good to go.  He hasn't taken a bath since.  It is a much quicker way to get clean :-)



November 5th - A Fall Walk

It was a sunny fall day so Ethan and I decided to take a walk.  He loves pulling the wagon!




November 11th - Piano

We finally had our piano delivered.  It has been quite entertaining for the boys.  Now I need to find Owen a piano teacher!!



November 13th - No School Day and A Good Reader

Owen didn't have school so we went for a yummy breakfast treat before heading to the gym to play.

 



Owen is doing such a good job with reading.  He went and got this book and just started reading it!



November 15th - Swimming Level 1

Owen's friend Lauren is in his swim class.  Having a friend in class has really made going to swimming not so challenging.





November 16th - Picture Retakes

Our first attempt at school pictures didn't turn out as well as I knew they could so we sent Owen for retakes.  I think everyone would agree it was a good idea!




November 18th - Happy Birthday Daddy!

We celebrated Mike's 34th Birthday at home with the boys.  They loved having cupcakes for dessert.  I can't believe that next year Mike will be half way to 70!!!



November 26th - Happy Thanksgiving

We had a visit from the Mulliner girls and from Granny and Papa on Thanksgiving.  The boys loved playing with their cousins and dinner was delicious!  








November 27th - Decoration Day!!

Owen declared the day after thanksgiving as decoration day.  We put up our Christmas decorations and made a gingerbread house.  Of course first thing Ethan did when he saw the tree... he crawled under it!
