Oh Wright...

Everyday Wright cracks me up with all the hysterical things he says and melts my heart with his sweet nature. He just sounds so grown up, and we are learning more and more that he listens to EVERYTHING we say and will repeat it! A few examples...

After a car honked at me in a parking lot, he said "You have got to be KIDDING me!"

Brendan was messing with him before Lanie came over the other day and asked him who Lanie was. And he said "Dad! Lanie is my girlfriend."

Today in the car, he was talking silly and saying "poo poo" a lot. I was getting on to him about it and how that word is for the bathroom only. He responded, "But I REALLY like that word."

He was singing to Spencer in the car the other day to get him to stop crying. After Spencer finally calmed down, I was thanking him and he said "I really love my brother. I love my brother always."

The other night he overheard Brendan making a joke about my pj pants being my cookie pants. That night in his prayers, he thanked God for "Jesus and Mommy's cookie pants."

Wright Quote of the Day

After he brought me a flower he found outside... "I picked you a beautiful flower. Mommy, I love you always."

Spencer's 10 months

Spencer is 10 months old! Here is what he is up to these days.

- Talks very little, but has started saying "Hi!" when I come pick him up from school.
- Crawls fast all over the place. Pulls up and walks around things.
- Still a mama's boy, but has started pushing me away because he wants to get down and crawl around.
- Loves his big brother, will chase him throughout the house and only wants to play with Wright's toys - this of course can be a little difficult sometimes since Wright does not like all his toys in Spencer's mouth!
- Very picky eater. He has finally started eating real food but doesn't like very much. The only things he will inhale are bananas and tortillas with queso :) Sometimes he will eat veggies and other fruits if they are soft, yogurt and turkey hot dog. Pretty much everything else, he spits out. Not excited about the road ahead on this.
- Smiles ALL the time, he is still generally the happiest little boy.
- Great sleeper. He will take a morning nap anytime he can get it and then sleeps 3 hours in the afternoon. He has finally dropped the evening nap and tends to get super fussy in the evenings.

Halloween

We had a wonderful Halloween this year. The Beales and Croffords came over for trick or treating and dinner and it was blast. Wright has been asking for candy and treats non-stop since.

Our neighbor down the street was sitting in his yard in this Burger King mask - hysterical.

Spencer and Wesley.

Trick or treat!

The four kiddos getting ready to head out. How cute is Minnie Mouse?

Pumpkin Wesley.

These are our Jack o lanterns we carved. Brendan's witch doctor took about 3 hours. Wright chose to do the "batman" one.
