"Roter-tillers"

That's what the boys call these contraptions. They sure make a loud "vvvv"-ing noise!

Several Sebs

I like all his different expressions. :) And his curly, sleepy hair.

Leaf-lubbers

Grandma let the boys use her leaf piles the other day. We couldn't really get Seb to play in them; all he was interested in was using the rake. Abe pretended he was an erupting volcano.

Halloween Panda Bears

Here are our cute little pandas getting reading for trick-or-treating. Grandma made their darling suits for them. They wanted dark eyes and noses drawn on, which you can see in the middle picture, but I think they looked cutest just with their own little faces peeking out. :)

Sebastian said all the right things at each house: "Tick-oh-teet," "Day-do!" (that's "thank you") and "Happy How-een!" With his shrill little voice, he sounded like one of those little laughing stuffed ghosts that Grandma puts out at Halloween time.

"Hee-hee-hee-hee! Hee-hee-hee-hee! Hee-hee-hee-hee! Happy Halloween!"
