I know I post WAY too many pictures at once but I take too many and don't blog enough! So here's pictures of our recent events! It has been so nice to have Ben around more lately! We have had lots of fun family time together. The boys are doing great in school! Kayson got his first report card and he got straight A's!! We are very proud of how hard he works. He is an excellent reader. Cade is starting to read 3 and 4 letter words. He thinks its pretty cool that he can sound out some words now. He's doing great in Pre-K he absolutely loves it. Griffin changes every day. I feel so bad whenever Ben has to be away because Griff learns new things and does new funny things every day! He now knows how to climb on Kayson's bunk bed. YES not kidding. He can climb to the top himself. He just about gave me a heart attack when I saw him up there. He's always on the kitchen table. He is such a joy though. Kayson and Cade adore him and he just worships them. I have no idea what we did before Griffin was in our lives. It seems like all we do now is stare at him all day long. He's so cute and so fun to be around even though he can drive me crazy!!! We are really enjoying him!
Griffin's black eye. Now a weekly thing it seems like!
So Kayson and Cade had been watching the show Mountain Men with Ben and I come outside to find Kayson trying to start a fire on our back porch. AHH. Thank goodness he doesn't have it down quite yet!!
Griffin loves to play in the sandbox. One of our neighbors gave it to us when they moved and the kids love it!
Here's some pictures of the boys riding on the trail behind our apts.
Tell me if thats not an Elkin's trait?? He does it well!!
Don't mind Kayson's pants. Everytime we let him dress himself he chooses to wear his baseball pants!!
I am so excited that I have a friend here now to watch Griffin for me because Kayson's class went to Autumn Acres on a field trip last week and for the first time I got to go with him by myself! We had a lot of fun together!
Kayson with his best buds on the hay ride!
They each got to pick their own pumpkins out of a huge pumpkin patch! It was a lot of fun!!
Sadly soccer season is over. We really loved watching the boys play!
This is how Cade hangs out during Kayson's games!
These boys just love eachother!
We went up to the state park to enjoy the fall leaves. It was beautiful!
Griffin laughed and laughed the whole time. He thought playing in the leaves was like heaven!
Here are the boys carving their pumpkins. Griff thought it was pretty cool!
We let Griff try to paint his own. He loved it!
Kayson's finished pumpkin!
I don't even know what to say here. Mud puddle in back yard. Ya right like they were going to avoid it. Huge mess!! But super fun to watch!
Once again. Kayson in his baseball pants. And now baseball pants with snow boots and gloves. The kid really knows how to dress!!!
We took all the boys to Autumn Acres last weekend and Griffin loved the baby piggies. He stuck his fingers right in there and let them nibble on them. He laughed so hard!
This is Kayson on the horse....
This is him falling off the horse!!
They have a cool spider web for the kids to play on.
Griffin loved going down the slides with Daddy!
Obviously he adores his Daddy!
Here are some pictures my friend took of us at the state park.
The boys love to feed the geese!
Here is Griffin at the Trunk-or-Treat with his little pals! They are so cute!!
