Italian Potluck

So, Thursday after my long afternoon nap, I got to get together with ALL my friends:) It was so much fun. Our parents all got together for a potluck...all that means is they eat a lot of food. Anyway, here is a picture of da da feeding us puffs. Daddy made us sign 'more' before we got any.
We want 'more!'

Fun with Nolan

Last Thursday morning our mommy's had bible study so all morning we played in the nursery we both missed our morning naps! Then, Nolan's grandma took us to lunch at the mall and we got to play at the play place for the first time every! We LOVED it!!


Yes, Nolan is playing on a plastic prickly pear cactus (only in AZ)


I did not stop moving, running, and LOUDLY talking the entire time. I was so excited just to run and run and run!! This is WAY better than sitting in stroller or a high chair.

me, mid stride

Then, after the mall we went to Costco to see Nolan's daddy..."nolan, wake up! we're here!"

Needless to say Nolan and I both took a LONG afternoon nap that day, but we had so much fun.

You want me to do what?!?!?

Mommy made me feel the inside of the pumpkin, and I did not appreciate it...

Yuk!

Hmm...maybe on my own terms...

I don't think it will bite...

This is nothing...

The Aftermath

Roar...get me out of this thing!

Nolan "i am not smiling" Isaac, "me either"

Nolan "ok maybe a little smile" Isaac, "I'm never giving in!"


our parents carved pumpkins after we went trick or treating my mommy and daddy did the small one, Ms Christine did the lion and Mr. Andrew did the statue of Liberty


Yes, I AM standing on the counter unattended...

14 month update

I am now 14 months old! I just thought you would all like to know that I now have four teeth on the top and one tooth on the bottom. I can sign the word more, I can clap my hands. I can say rock, book, dirt, and dog. and of course ma ma and da da. My favorite food currently is animal crackers. My favorite place to play is in the rocks or dirt, but always outside. I walk EVERYWHERE. No more crawling for me.

Stay tuned for more halloween pics, and if you want to check out more, go to the McNutt's blog there is a lot of pictures of me on their blog:)

Candy candy candy

Nolan and I discovered quite quickly what we were supposed to do with the stuff being thrown in our bucket, here we are each sucking on an m&m bag...

What mom? I'm not doing anything...

Nolan, isn't that wrapper yummy?



Aw...mom, this sucker is not a choking hazard, please don't take it away...
(after the sucker incident, the adults had to carry the candy bucket, but we sure did have a blast!)

Trick or treat!

Nolan and I really enjoyed trick or treating. People even took pictures of us we were so cute!

We even had glow in the dark bracelets, which Nolan kept stealing from me...


We shared one bucket between us, and it didn't take us long to figure out what was going into that bucket at each house


Here is everyone, Daddy even got off work a little early, and made it half way through trick or treating! What a fun night...

Roar!!!!!

Nolan was a LION!! Here he is with his grandparents and mommy and daddy.


I have the hunger of a LION, it does not matter that I just ate dinner, I need more Food.

Mooo

As you can see I was a cow for Halloween (thanks granny netty for the outfit!)
This is what I do with my hands when I really want someone to pick me up, and so far it is 100% successful, since I am so cute.


I'm so tired and the night hasn't even started yet! We are at Nolan's grandparents house getting ready to go trick-or-treating. We already ate dinner and now we are almost ready to go.
The black nose only lasted about 30 seconds before I rubbed it off.

This is my tail and Ms. Christine's:)

Tea Time Then and Now

After the Gardens we went to have Tea (well our mommy's did) and then we went to Michael's . It was a BUSY day, but we were good boys!

This is all of us at the tea place December '06

This is Nolan and I now! We are getting so big!!

PS stay tuned for some Halloween pictures:)

Butterfly Pavilion

At the desert Botanical Garden, Monday we went to the Butterfly Pavilion. We liked the butterflies, but we LOVED the flowers.

Fun at the Botanical Garden

Yesterday me, mommy, Nolan and his mommy took a whole day trip. We started with going to breakfast with Nolan's Grandma and great-grandparents and then we went to the botanical gardens.
The trip started out GREAT mommy and Miss Christine were listening to the tour guide, so I got to play in the dirt! Mommy had just put sunscreen on me, so the dirt stuck all over. It was Awesome!


The tour guide told us that these cacti are not actually Sagauro , the are Cardon's from Mexico their arms come out of the bottom and not the top or middle.

Yes, that is LOTS of dirt on my face!

This is Nolan and I resting a bit in the shade. It was a hot day!

Helping Daddy Research

Saturday mommy and I got to go with Daddy to his research site and help him collect data. I had such a great time! I loved playing in the dry wash. I also like to drink out of daddy's Camelback, I am pretty good at getting water out of it. The dry wash is like sand, and we had fun digging holes and burying rocks in it.

And, yes I'm sure that I ingested some things mommy would have preferred I not!

Petting Zoo

At the pumpkin patch there was a petting zoo! I really wanted to touch the animals.



Here little goat goat. Daddy put me down into the petting zoo, and I was so excited I ran right out into the middle so daddy couldn't reach me unless he climbed in too! I love animals.
