fall fun...


First and foremost....























Mack decided to start peeing in the toilet on Friday!  :)  I can still hardly believe it.  It started at Nana's - he followed his little friend, Marly, to the bathroom and then decided to give it a try.  Success!  He continued to use the toilet that evening, yesterday, and we even got a BM today.  We busted out the big boy pants, he wet them a couple times - but we will keep trying.  He is thrilled each time he goes!  We are so proud of him!

Saturday afternoon we went to a carnival near our house.  We met Kelly and Marly - the kids had a blast and we all had fun watching and chasing them! :)  Here are some pics from the day:

Contemplating his next move... GO HAWKS!
 





















There was a nice pumpkin patch that the kids enjoyed running around and looking at the pumpkins.  We even found the perfect one to take home. 


 






















These look good...




WOW!...





 
 




















We continue to enjoy frequent visits to the park each week.  Our weather has been so nice - we try to appreciate and enjoy every moment.  Mack loves to play and interact with the other kids we meet.

outside...

We are so thankful for our cooler, more comfortable weather.  We have been taking advantage of it whenever possible.  Walks to the park on the weekend and lots of time in the yard (rocks) after school.  We were even blessed with a little rain on Sunday...and there is a chance for the next couple days.  Those of you who know me well, know that I LOVE the rain.  I would never complain about our blue skies and bright sunny days here in Las Vegas, but I do enjoy clouds on the rare occasions they appear.  Mack thinks the rain is funny and frowns up at the sky when it thunders - too cute!
