Scandalous Great Grandma

These pictures are a re-enactment of last night. I didn't get much sleep. Xander was up a few times, I think it is because he is teething. Then I looked up and notice Keaton in our room, so I walked him back to his bed. About an hour later, 5am, I heard some talking, so I got up to behold Keaton in bed with Grandma Z . It was quite a funny site, she was reading a magazine and Keaton was reading a magazine, then Keaton pops his head out from the magazine and said, " I reading my magazine, mommy," At this point I am grumpy and tired and I am one who needs beauty sleep, so I said,"Come on lets get into your own bed" Keaton with attitude, "I am reading my magazine with grandma". I guess Chris must of heard us, so he came in and grabbed Keaton and put him in his own bed. Grandma loved it and if it was 7am I would've left him, but I didnt' want to deal with a grumpy boy in the morning.

Comb the tangles out of the hair

Keaton decided he wanted to comb his hair, which we only do on sunday, well I would do it other days, but he is a boy and is very very lucky it looks fine without being comb. He wanted some gel, but I didn't want to give it to him because it would've been glopped in one spot and I was about to put them in the bath. Of course, Xander wants to be just like his older brother so then Xander pulls out a comb and tries to start combing his hair. I think Xander got a little confused at one point and thought it was his toothbrush.
It is so cute to watch Xander try to do everything Keaton does.

Halloween

Halloween was a blast. Jenine, James, Mercedez and Trini were down in Palm Desert, so we took a quick trip to see them. Unfortunately, Chris had to work so he missed out on all the fun. (Side note, I am just glad that he does have work and is a hard worker!!)

Adorable cousins the boys have and they had a blast hanging out. Xander loved grabbing Trini's witch hat.

We hung out with Jenine and the girls all day. Keaton got to go trick or treating with the big kids in Palm Desert. After about a block or so as the older kids went to knock on a door Keaton sat on the driveway and said,"I am taking a rest." It was Auntie Jenines mission to load Keaton{Mommy ;)} up with a lot of candy. I don't know who benefited more Keaton or me because I am in control of his halloween bag, I think I have eaten more of it than he has.

Xander got stuck in the stroller, anytime I would let him out he wanted to take apart everyones Malibu lights, so most of his trick or treating was spent in the stroller.

The candy didn't just stop in the neighborhoods of Palm Desert, we went to a 3 ward trunk or treat at the church and I think at one point Auntie Jenine took Keatons bag and left him in the dust as she lapped him to get more and more candy.

Family is always fun to hang out with. I get the extra added bonus since they kept Keaton occupied.

Harvest Time

Keaton loved the guy on stilts. He would run up to him and then the man would get closer to Keaton and then he would run away. He wasn't quite sure of him, but Keaton warmed up to him.

Trick or Treat

Pumpkins Galore at the zoo as we join in with some of the crowd for the pumpkin festival. I think the boys had the funnest time with the pumpkins. Xander was trying to knock all of them off the bails of hay and Keaton was climbing on them or using it as a slide. They sure do keep me on my toes. People were all adoring Xander in his superman costume because this kid can move and as he was walkin around or running that cape was flapping in the air, he was having a fun time. Keaton, is wearing the same costume as last year, but at this age, he doesn't care. He loved having a whistle(which I did have to take away because he wouldn't stop blowing it) and having a gun. He was walking up to everyone to make sure that they kney he was a Police Man.
