Christmas Photo Shoot

The weather was so nice after Thanksgiving that we decided to take advantage and head to the beach for some photos for our Christmas card.

Liam took this photo of me and Casey, he's becoming quite the photographer . . .

Our "Sand"Man . . .

A beach baby, even in December . . .

Gobble!! Gobble!!

We love hosting Thanksgiving at our house. This is our 2nd year, and hope to the continue this tradition for years to come. Our little turkey was excited too. . .

After chaos in the kitchen trying to get everything hot and ready all at once. . .

. . . But then we all sat down for a wonderful meal, thanks to everyone's help!

And a shot of the siblings. Two big sisters and their "little" brother

October Beach Day!

We had awesome weather this weekend, and tried to be outside as much as possible.

After Mommy's day long swim meet on Sunday we went to dinner outside at Water Street and ate on the river. . . Liam was very happy!

When we got home, Daddy made a fire outside and we snuggled on the love seat . . .

We enjoyed our Monday off of school and hit the beach with Aunt Jaclyn.

Liam relaxed in the middle of the sandbar where he had a "picnic" lunch. . .

We were so happy to be able to enjoy the ocean in October

The water was super clear and surprisingly warm. . . we saw huge fish and found lots of sea glass

We love the beach! Liam didn't want to leave - it was a perfect day!

Fall Fun

Casey and I went to a wedding in North Jersey on Friday night, so Liam got to spend some extra time with his grandparents . . .

Grandma Scallon took him to pick out pumpkins and he came back with a whole truck load!

He then went to dinner with Nana & Pop Pop and was dancing on stage with the band.

We've been going on bike rides, and Liam has been doing great on his own bike.

He's a little too brave for Mommy's liking - taking the turns super fast and flying right over bumps in the sidewalk at full speed . . .

Fire Prevention Month

Today Nana took Liam to a program at the Library where he got to meet a fireman and see the firetruck. Apparently he's not a fan of the sirens.

Busy Days

As the school year had gotten underway, we've had some changes to our schedules.

Mommy is now working full time at school again, which means Liam gets to spend more time with Nana, his new babysitter Andrea, and with Grandma Scallon! We are so lucky to have our parents so close to help us out so much :)

We've also got to go to a Pirate Day festival at the mall where they gave the kids pirate gear and had some fun games and a treasure map coloring for them . . .

Liam has been doing great at school, and he even goes right into his classroom now without crying. His teachers noticed too, and he got picked to take Clifford home for the weekend. We had to take Clifford everywhere and then write about our adventures in the class journal.

We took him to Rainforest Cafe
Liam still loves being naked, but at least we can get him to cover up in a cozy blanket on occassion. Casey thinks he looks like a little Anakin Skywalker here . . .

Not enjoying the weather change this week. . . .gloomy

SORRY for the lack of updates . . .

I've been a blog slacker . . . sorry for the lack of pictures and updates.

To sum up August, this is basically what we did:

I promise to be better at keeping up to date on here, if you have about 5 hours to kill feel free to browse through the photos from this entire summer:
