November Days

Macabe and Bennett are becoming close friends (at least for now). Macabe loves to be a helper, and Bennett finds his big brother so fun to watch.

Bennett is full of smiles, loves to coo back at you and is beginning to chuckle. His sleep patterns have been off again, but he sure did string together a few long nights a while back. He's a pretty happy baby...and definitely loved.

Macabe has more and more words everyday. And everyday he gets sillier. He loves to take back pop cans with Dad and walk the circle in the house with his elephant pull toy. Grampa says he is so full of energy that he'd like to find a way to harness his energy and use it to heat and light his house. We're all looking for creative ways to 'go green' these days!

Well, since we're a little behind on posts, we had to include a Halloween picture of the UPS man that delivered packages to Dad's and Grampa's office. And because a favorite pasttime of Macabe's is to look for Waldo, he decided his brother should go as the striped man himself. Bennett looks thrilled to be wearing the pipe cleaner eye glasses Mom made, doesn't he?

And good old Lucy has kept things interesting this Fall. She decided to take adventures in the woods and find the neighbor's deer blind. She's managed to frustrate the hunters to a point of tears for chasing all the deer away. What a great hunting dog!
