Sorry it's been so long...

Wow, we've been kinda busy! Between Ben's fall activities and the home projects we've been working on, suddenly it's almost October!

Where can I start...

The kids and I recently had a visit with my Grandma Lil (a.k.a. GG). I think that Ben entertained her, making our trip to see her worthwhile. She was very impressed with Ella too!



























Ben said that he was going to the moon, and that this was his "face helmet" (space helmet).














Random cute car seat shot of Ella smiling:














Ben and I made cookies, and I even let him use the mixer (under my watchful eye!).














Side by side:














They love each other so much...














But Ella loves her toes too!














We took some pictures at Gymkyds this week so that you can all see how much fun Ben has!

Here he is on the trampoline - by far, his favorite thing! It's still the first thing he goes for!



























This is the whole setup (except for the trampolines, which are behind me):














Ben on a balance beam:














He also loves to hang and swing on the rings:




















Ella trying on Ben's new hardhat and her new Bumbo at the same time!














A boy and his trains...














Ella in cute hats...isn't she sweet?




























(This is the controversial Hanna Andersson pilot cap I had to buy in Minneapolis.)

I don't know the details of the controversy, but let me cast a vote in favour of the pilot cap. Let me cast two, if that's allowed.

I am overwhelmed....I don't know which picture to print first.

I hope Ben is feeling better.

I really like the colour you painted Ella's room.

I would like to vote twice for the hat Garth didn't choose.

I would like to vote for everything. I will try to post a photo on our blog of R&F wearing their pilot's caps.

Must go, baby crying.

Yay pink room!

Love Auntie K.

I think the hat looks ridiculous. (Please excuse spelling - Engligh is not my first language) I wish I'd never let my marketing department talk me into that hat.

Cute baby, tho.

Sir, you have misrepresented me within the hallowed halls of the internet. You'll be hearing from my lawyers.

You may think that I'm like a kitten, playing with yarn, making hats, but you're about to find that this cat has claws.

Actually, to Hell with the lawyers, I'm coming after you myself. Prepare to reap the whirlwind, bee-yatch.

Truly yours,

The Real Hanna Andersson
