Pumpkins!

We met Evie, Aunt MP and Uncle Ryan at the pumpkin patch a couple of weeks ago for a fun fall photo shoot.  It was nap time for the boys but they were troopers.  They didn't cry, but they were not feeling particularly smiley either.  I was amazed at  seeing how blue their eyes are when I looked at these pictures.  Such handsome boys :).

Evie is so strong!

It cracks me up to look at how fat Presley's face is getting and how thick his neck is.  The boy definitely likes to eat!

whoa!!!!

"Don't look so surprised Presley...I told you they would take a million photos."

Fraternal vs Identical. The Great Debate.

Random strangers have argued with me more than once over whether or not Cy and Presley are identical twins.  They are not identical.  But people tell me I am wrong all the time.  Because the stranger on the street definitely knows my babies better than I would.  Awesome.  

But I can see where it gets confusing.  Extra friend and family points if you know which baby is which! ;)

Weekend with Grammy and Pop

Paul and I took our first overnight trip away from the boys last weekend and went to Denver. Cy and Presley got to spend the weekend in San Antonio with Grammy and Pop and do all kinds of fun things! Those lucky boys get to spend another week in RR when I leave for Atlanta on Sunday. Good thing they have some grandparents who love them! :)

Here are some pictures that Pop took while we were gone.

Happy Cy

 Going to Church (C on left)

" Could we stop with the cereal already???"

Cy still loves it

Playtime (P is standing)

Fun in the backyard

Just a nice Thursday afternoon in the yard...

Presley

Still getting used to this whole sitting up thing...

Rough day at school

Presley had one too many "accidents" at day care compared to the number of extra clothes mommy had packed in the diaper bag...

Apparently all the extra clothes are for girls.  Lesson learned.  There are now 4 clean outfits in the diaper bag. :)

If you aren't too distracted by the purple shirt you'll notice he is sitting up all by himself.  Cy can do it too!

Yummy avocado

Cy says: "hurry up mom!"

 Presley says:  "what are you shoving in my face..."

 "because I am really not sure about this whole food thing..."

 

 "yep...I am definitely done.  Get the spoon away from me!"

"Ok, wait.  Maybe it's not so bad!"

"I'll try it one more time as long as I get to help with the spoon."

Cy shows us how its done.
