May the Force be with you...

Sweet Baby Boy...

Yesterday we celebrated the precious life God has created inside my dear sister-in-law, Kylene.  We are so excited to welcome this sweet boy into the family in January.  In addition to being incredibly eager to snuggle the babe when he comes, I am so blessed and thankful to see Kylene blossoming into the beautiful, smart, strong young woman that she is.  Kylene, we are so happy for you!  You are going to be an amazing mama!

Fall in Seattle...

I'm pretty sure there's not much that is better for the soul than a breezy, crisp, fall morning at Discovery Park!  And for the record, these photos are mostly of Ezra not because I love him more, but because I spend way more time by his side.  Owen and Silas quickly run off with their cousins to explore as big boys do, while I lag two feet behind Ezra to keep him out of mischief.  Therefore, most of these photos are of him.  Good thing he's at such a cute, entertaining stage!

Also, I hauled my good camera (Alli's that I am borrowing, actually) all the way to Seattle with the intent of taking it to Discovery Park with me.  Problem is, the battery died the afternoon we got there and I forgot the charger.  As a result, these photos were all taken with my phone.  Good thing phones come with decent cameras these days.





























We also enjoyed some good play time at the park in the village:

Morning at Grandma's:

Ezra ventured out, but barely.  He was a bit leery of a few of Grandma's Halloween decorations outside:

When you're the youngest...

Your cousins share their breakfast with you, even when it's so delicious that sharing takes a bit of sacrifice:

His eyes were bigger than his stomach...

Silas made his own lunch today.  I think, in his excitement, he got a bit carried away:

One of the many joys of Fall...
