October 3rd

This afternoon we went to look at the fall colors on the lake via boat with Gay and Michelle and then took the boys to the park. Evan had fun going down the slide at the park.

The boys take turns driving the school bus!

Occasionally a group of turkeys have been playing a visit to our neighbors bird feeder.

A couple weeks ago Alex's teacher asked me to fill out a profile of his likes. I listed Mr Potato Head as his favorite toy. He doesn't really know how to build Mr. Potato Head, but he likes to chew on some of the parts and take them apart. We have a big potato head that holds all the parts and he will bring it out of Evan's room and say "open".

Here is our Potato Head family. Alex brought that potato head family to daycare last week, because the toddlers were learning about body parts. They got to play with Mr. Potato Head!

Last Sunday night Alex woke up with a 103 fever. He stayed home with Daddy on Monday and thankfully his fever didn't return. This was him playing in the cupboard at 3:30 AM. He was feeling better, but not ready to go back to bed. He kept trying to run down the hall yelling "Avan" "Avan"! He thought it was time to get up and play.
