Tatum and Piper Visit/Ellie's Fall Festival

Well, November flew by, just like the rest of the months have since Jackson got here.  I'm just catching up with a few things that happened over the past few weeks.
 
The first weekend in November, our friends Shawn, Stephanie, Tatum, and Piper came to visit.  Ellie and Tatum are 3 months apart and Jackson and Piper are 1 month apart.  Ellie had a blast playing with Tatum!
 
We also went to Ellie's Fall Festival at her school a couple of weeks ago.  They had games, face painting, a bounce house, and an auction.  We tried to win the OSU basket, but got outbid.  (We actually have most of the items that were in it anyway!)  Ellie was not in a smiling mood that night, but she did smile and have fun when we weren't pointing a camera at her.
 
 
 
We found this scorpian in Ellie's room the night before the Hatfields came.  When Ellie couldn't remember what it was called, she would say, "Where is that tilapia we found in my room?"
Tilapia . . . Scorpian . . . whatever.
Ready for Tatum and the OSU game!

Jackson at 2 months!

Weight: 13 pounds 4 ounces- 90th percentile
Length: 22.5 inches- 40th percentile
 
This month has been so much better for us around here!  Jackson is such a happy guy now!  He loves to smile and laugh out loud.  He is a little chunk (as you can tell by his weight).  This kid loves to eat!  He is also sleeping through the night.  Last Friday night he went to sleep at 10:30 p.m. and didn't wake up until 8:30 a.m.  Amazing!  We are so in love with him!

Halloween 2012

This year we had an OSU Cheerleader and Pistol Pete for Halloween!  They were adorable!  We went to Sadie's birthday party last Saturday.  It was a costume party, so we dressed up Ellie and Jackson.  They had so much fun!  They were both totally exhausted after the party.

Cutest Pistol Pete EVER!

On Sunday, we went to a Trunk or Treat at Ellie's school.  We had hotdogs and walked around to all the games.  Ellie wouldn't play any of them until the last two.  She would, however, take the candy after Kyle and I would play the game for her. ;)  The highlight of the afternoon was when we saw one of her teachers, Mrs. Jessica.
 
This pic cracks me up!
Not too sure about this whole trunk-or-treat thing

Fishing for M&Ms (wouldn't that be cool?  I might become a master fisherman!)

On Halloween, we went to Grandma's house for pizza and then trick-or-treating.  Ellie had lots of fun with her cousins this year.  She loved going to each house and getting candy.  She would even go up to the scary houses.  She ran all over the neighborhood!
