Chef

Apparently some of the homeschooling lessons have paid off:  Ashley wants to make some dessert for us.

Office Visit

I took the citizens to visit my new office at the MIT Media Lab.  It was a big hit:

Dancing Scarecrow

Ashley is very patient.  Watch her teach the scarecrow how to run and dance:

Veterans Day Hike

We went on a beautiful fall hike at the Middlesex Fells with our friends Jackson and Campbell.  In the middle of our hike, we stopped for a snack:

Yum!

Trick or Treat?

Finally had a chance to go through our Halloween photos.  Without further ado, please meet Ariel and Mr. STI (a Subaru racecar driver, for those of you not in-the-know).

Light Up My Life

The citizens really do light up my life, especially when they play together.  Here's a clip of them playing with Daddy's bicycle lights:

Twirling Cucumbers

Bet you did a double-take when you saw the title of today's post, right?  Well, it's true.  MLM purchased a fun, but completely unnecessary, kitchen toy.  The citizens think it's fantastic!

Happy Birthday from the Pumpkins

Our little pumpkins called Grandma to wish her a happy birthday:

Happy Birthday to Me!

My birthday was a few days ago.  Karla decorated the play room with streamers and photos of the citizens.  The citizens sang a rousing rendition of "Happy Birthday Mommy".  What a wonderful way to celebrate!

Galapagos Double-take?

Is that a tortoise from the Galapagos?  Umm... nope!  It's a photo from our trip to the Turtleback Zoo.  Thanks Deduskha for sending us this photo.

Cousin Cuddle

As we've established, Adam and Ashley love to read books.  Imagine how thrilled they were to find another member of the family who loves to read to them!
