Rubba Dub Dub

Ezra likes taking baths without Solomon. She doesn't get dunked under water, splashed in the face, bubble lathered all over her head, etc. She can actually enjoy splashing and kicking on her own.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was Solomon's favorite holiday this year. The Dow's came down from Washington and the Whites came over from Bend. Solomon had lots of cousins there to play with. The kids got to act out the First Thanksgiving. It was total chaos but the kids loved it. Solomon said, "I'm thankful for Mimi." Big surprise!

All Aboard

Katie took our family pictures at another Train in Springfield. I was hoping to get something we could use for our family Christmas card.

Ezra's Dedication

The day Ezra was getting dedicated at church I walked into Solomon and Ezra's room to find Solomon putting ribbons and bows all over Ezra. He said, "Mommy, look. I'm decorating Ezra for church." I laughed and had to explain that she was getting dedicated not decorated.

Fall Steel

Simon is addicted to fishing. He gets out on the water as often as he can. Sometimes he gets lucky. This year he caught 32 steelhead. If he's not fishing he's watching spey casting videos on youtube. It's definitely one of his passions and he's become really good at it.

Trick or Treat

Solomon and Ezra went Trick or Treating with Gabby and Gage. Afterward we went to Nana's to play games and pass out candy. Solomon liked passing out candy more than getting candy. He would try beating people as he opened the door to say, "Trick or Treat."

Ezra's Six Month Pictures

I feel so guilty because I think I took pictures of Solomon almost every month as a baby. This is only her second photo session ever. I guess it is true what they say about not documenting as much for the second child as you did for the first. We drove out to Tom's to take Ezra's pictures and she cried the entire time. These are a few pictures in between the tears. I was going to edit the drool from here face but decided that really captured what she was like as a baby.
