Months 4, 5, 6

Here are Donovan's 4, 5, and 6 months pictures. I can't believe what a chunky monkey he is! At his 4 month appointment he was 95th percentile for weight and 75th for height. We'll have to see what he is at the 6 month appointment...

Fall Fun

Here are a couple of pictures from our outside fun during November. Matt was sweet enough to rake the leaves into piles instead of just using the mower so the kids could jump in the piles. (He's such a good dad!)



Halloween

Ugh...Halloween was rough for us. I went back to work the week before and ended up getting a nasty virus (from my dirty kids). We had to leave a bowl of candy out for the trick-or-treaters, but I just couldn't stay in bed to I came outside and took a couple of pictures of the kids.

The day before Halloween our neighborhood had a Halloween party. There were goody bags, crafts, games, and a "haunted forest". The kids really enjoyed themselves and we are so lucky to have such good neighbors. There are a ton of little boys on our street and I just picture 10 years from now (we are all in trouble).




A couple of pics from our Orlando Trip

Yes, yes...two months later...but hey, I've been busy....

Before I went back to work we went on a trip to Disney World. We stayed in the Caribbean Beach Resort in Disney World in pirate themed rooms. The beds were shaped like boats, the refrigerators were shaped like barrels, and there were pictures of pirates in every room. Needless to say, Caelan thought it was pretty cool.

Since we went in mid-October, they closed Magic Kingdom early once while we were there to have their special Halloween celebration. Caelan really enjoyed himself. Of course, we had to dress the occasion (except for Matt, who didn't bring a costume, but bought a not-too-scary Mickey pirate shirt).

For about 3 months before we went on the vacation, we were keeping track of how tall Caelan was. The magic number for a lot of rides at Disney World is 40 inches. Right before we left he was 39.75 inches and his shoes took him up to 40. He was measured for a couple of rides, but was never turned away. He even went on his first roller coaster at night!!! Personally, I'm hoping he takes after me (his mama) so that I have a roller coaster partner as he gets older.

Anyway- here are a couple of pictures from the trip...









We also went to Universal Studios so we could visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. It was insanely busy! While we didn't make it in to Ollivander's, we did let Caelan choose a wand. He, of course, chose Harry Potter's. :)
