It's Fall!

The boys looked so handsome in their fall outfits on Saturday that I just had to get out the camera... Then we went to a picnic at Lake Ellyn and got a cute family pic too!

Apple Picking

We forgot to post our pictures from our annual apple picking outing at Kuiper's! We went two weeks ago and had a wonderful time, as you can see from all the pictures. Luke had a lot of fun picking apples and Weston enjoyed eating them. He gnawed on one the ENTIRE time we were there. I have never seen him so content. Can't wait to go back for pumpkins.

Ice Cream Social

Last week Luke's Preschool had an ice cream social. Goey came with us and took these adorable pictures. So far he really loves school. He is sad when he has to leave!

First Day of Preschool

Today was Luke's first day of Preschool (sniff, sniff). It was more of an open house format today, so Weston and I were there the whole time. Next week will start the official drop offs. He did great. One of his teachers, Mrs. DaLuna, greeted him at the door, helped him find his cubby and gave him a brief description of how the day gets started. He responded very well! Once he got into the classroom he made himself at home in the play area. Later he showed off to his other teacher, Mrs. Halford, by counting the numbers 1-13 that were hanging on the wall. I feel like Luke is really growing up. It is a huge step for both of us to start school, but I know he needs it and will love it!

Goey and Weston

One of our neighbors mentioned how much Weston looks like Goey, so Goey decided to do a little research.  Here is a picture of her at Weston's age (circa 1939), along with a recent picture of Weston with Mommy.  The similarities are pretty remarkable!
