Week of Fun

My friend Melody came to visit me from California. We hadn't seen each other since we both had our sons so it was great to finally meet Jonas and for them to meet Tale. The boys got along great in the beginning but then Tale got a little terriorial and started biting anytime Jonas would get near me. He had never done that before, I have no idea where he learned it from. Here are a couple of pictures when they got along.

So they got in Thursday night, so Friday afternoon we got ready and headed to the science center. It was such an awesome place. There was tons to do but the boys weren't quite old enough just yet, but they still had a lot of fun. Tale loved the mirror, I wonder where he gets that from? ha!

Jonas loved this toy and Tale quickly joined in on the fun.

Then the boys spotted the water and they were there most of the day. Tale was the only baby that didn't have shoes on, ah hello it is freezing and wet and he is barefoot. But he had so much fun splashing and playing with the water toys.

After the science center we went to grab something to eat. We went to Chili's and Tale loved the ribs. :)

Saturday we headed to the apple cider mill. I guess they are closing down for the season so we didn't get to watch them make apple cider but we did get donuts, apples and an apple pie.

Here we are eating our donuts.

Then Sunday we went to the Grismore Fram, where he picked apples from the tree, there weren't very many left but Jonas had a blast picking the apples from the tree. Tale was asleep so we left him home with daddy. Sorry Tale boi..........

There were some animals there too, Jonas didn't like them at first but he warmed up to them in the end. The animals loved Melody though, I was scared too, but still managed to pet one animal.

Monday we took a ride to Niagara Falls, it was about a 3 hour drive. I'm glad Tahri was able to go with us because he knew exactly where to go. Tale loved hanging out on his daddy's shoulders although he kept laughing and throwing himself back.

It was awesome to have Melody and Jonas over, thanks so much for visiting us. We miss you guys already!

Halloween

Thursday Tale and I went with our friends Tiffany and her daughter Taylor to go get some pumpkins to carve. But going 2 days before Halloween doesn't leave you with very many pumpkin choices. They only had big ones left and we were looking for some small ones. Oh well maybe next year mommy will take you earlier Tale. :) But we ended up getting some yummy apples instead. Tale just loved the apples, he played with one for the longest time and would get mad if I took it away. I finally took a bite out of it and he sucked and gnawed on it for awhile.

For Halloween Tale was a bear, how cute is he...........

A bear and a monkey...........

Our Halloween started off by going to the cider mill. We got some yummy donuts and got to watch how apple cider was made.

After the cider mill we headed to the commons for lunch and some trick or treating. After stopping at a few shops for some candy the boys ate some on the way back to the car so we could get home for nap time.
That night we handed out candy to all the kids in the neighborhood, Tale gave all his candy away, what a good boy. There weren't that many kids that came by. Here is Tale at the door waiting for more kids to come by. By the end of the night we were handing out handfuls so that we didn't have a bunch of candy leftover.
