{two videos}

Here's a glimpse of our Halloween. Notice how Gerard can't stand it when I'm giving Morgan my attention!

And here's a little bit of hockey practice. He's got a ways to go, but he is improving and he loves it!

{woo hoo!!!}

Debbie reminded me that I ought to re-post this video of Gerard signing the presidents FROM NEARLY 2 YEARS AGO! He was just over 3 years old, and his voice was so cute! Let's see if his prediction (at the end of the song) comes true on Tuesday. Here's hoping!

I went to Gerard's Halloween party at school and then they paraded through the middle school. It was really cute.

While Mrs. S. helped kids get their costumes on, she put on a book-on-tape and asked Gerard to turn the pages:

His whole class:

Here's Spiderman showing off his muscles (with the fog machine blowing behind him.)

We went trick-or-treating with Maddie and Abby and the rest of their crew:

Here are pictures of our pumpkins. Gerard goes all out with his carving each year. Impressive!

And here are a few cute ones of Dorothy. Aren't her ruby slippers from Mima and Granpa G so cute!?

I'm tired and I have a lot of pictures to go through from tonight, but I thought I'd post one of the kids in their costumes. Gerard was Spiderman and Morgan was Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz:

Just thought I'd share two cute little videos of the kiddos....

Gerard had hockey again on Saturday and Sunday. It is absolutely amazing how quickly he is learning. He's a pro at falling down and getting back up. (You think I'm joking, but that's an important skill to master!) He's also getting much better at skating without falling down and he's starting to work on stopping and changing directions. It's just too cute!

Here he is all suited up:
