Fall is in the air

A fall update on the kiddos:
 
Sam is getting very busy and continues to try "new things":
     *how various items look in the toilet
     *how many "no-no"s it takes before the parents make me stop
     *new laughs and silly faces
     *all kinds of kisses (puckered, sloppy, and blowing kisses).

Showing off his new molars!



Cute little puddle jumpers

Lily is still singing her way through life.  She loves to pretend with her Polly Pockets, watch "Chopped" with Mom and Dad, and work on most anything that involves art or cooking.  She would always choose to do something with one of us, so we are working on alone time.  (For her benefit and mine!)  She adores her brother, and he is in no need of someone to "guide" him.  The most exciting development is that she is starting to read a bit on her own.  She can sound out some words and figure others out from context.  Hip, hip, hooray!

We are enjoying the season, hoping it will hang as long as possible. 
Even Ollie seems pleased with fall!
