Grandma Della's BD

This year Grandma was kind enough to share her 89th birthday party with an already-turned 4 year old named Lukers.  Since we decided to only have his preschool friends for his party this year, he got moved to "September birthdays" with Great-Grandma Della.  Such a fun time, as was the Sunday trip to a local pumpkin patch with Mom and Dad.

One other update I meant to post is that Claire is now using sign language to communicate "more" all the time.  She vehemently taps her fingers together in the more signal anytime she wants anything, sometimes verbalizing "more" at the same time.  It is sort of cute in a demanding sort of way:)

Playing Candyland with Grandma

She hasn't quite grasped the game yet - you are not the game piece Claire!


Birthday girl looking great!



Sportin' his new Converse shoes and blue jeans, he looks so much older!

Birthday cake time


Love my Grandma!!

Claire has also been sucking her thumb and twirling her hair a ton, especially in the morning.  Matt and I have gone to get her in the morning and sometimes some of her hair is wrapped around her finger so tight we're worried it could cut off circulation!  Other times she has knots on one side that take a while to work out.  I'm definitely having flashbacks to my own childhood, as well as thinking about PJ (but she didn't suck her thumb, too!).  This is one club I'm wishing she wouldn't join.


Corn maze was Luke's favorite thing
