Brunsy Bunch: November 2012

Fall is a little hectic around our house! But, as crazy as it may be, we still find time to do all sorts of fun things! October was a whirlwind month! Between Mark's 33rd Birthday, a weekend trip to Columbus, falling leaves, pumpkin patch, football games, and Halloween! One can only imagine that I snapped a few photos!

We love Birthday's!

Nana & Papa came to celebrate with us!

Jack! Oh Jack...his imagination is becoming so fun! He's constantly talking about something, or playing some imaginative game! He has spent many nights wearing his "Super Jack" cape with his pajama's, and he likes playing in forts or pretending he's a pirate! Among these fabulous moments have been some Trying Three's. I am ready for this phase to pass! He is king of the NO, not listening, whining, and talking back. (Sorry for all the talking back I did as a kid, Mom! It is amazingly aggravating!) And, even more aggravating is that some days he listens to Mark instead of me. Yes, I realize I have 15 more years of dealing with back-talk, selective hearing, and choosing which parent he listens too...I think we should be a vineyard! But, even with the worst days, he's always in need of snuggles and a million hugs and kisses before bedtime!

Arr Matey's! Playing in the pirate ship at the pumpkin patch!

Checking out the tractor!

Roman! Oh, my sweet little Romy! He is constantly showing off his 2 teeth! Well, usually! When we made a trip to Columbus, Dad mentioned that Roman is just "Happy to be here"! It's true! (Most of the time!) He loves, loves, loves, to be with Jack. Any attention from his big brother makes him happy! (Even if Jack is stealing back a toy.) He's learned to stand up with assistance, is a crawling machine, loves all table food, and is into all sorts of things he shouldn't be (trash cans, cords, outlets, all the TV electronic gadgets, the wine rack, and the stairs)! He has learned the art of the high-five and is having a difficult time with teething! In fact, I can count the number of times he's slept through the night in the past couple of months!
