Brian shows off his halloween candy after we went trick-or-treating. He had a great time!

Just a nice picture

Nothing special, but this week we'll try to get a picture of his Halloween costume.
P.S. We haven't done anything with the pumpkins yet.

Just for fun

Our avid reader can read books even when they're upside down...

Apple picking

We went apple picking today at Green Acre Farms up in Greece.

We got Brian to help out with the apple picking

He got distracted quite easily.

The pumpkins were picked over pretty well, but Brian found lots of fresh dirt to play with. Still, we found a little pumpkin family to take home. Check back next week to see what we do with our pumpkins...

Ducks and ice cream

Last weekend our friend Greg visited, - the weather was great and the fall colors were near peak, so we went to Letchworth State Park and then saw his art on exhibit at RIT. Then on Sunday we went to Pittsford to feed the ducks on the Erie Canal and eat some ice cream.

Brian loves playing in dirt. Here he is playing with dirt in our back yard. We didn't get pictures feeding the ducks, because one of us was doing the feeding and the other was holding on to the squirmy wormy very, very tightly.

Yummy ice cream from Bill Wahl's.

A vacation in video

Here are some videos from our trip to California. Brian didn't care much for the plane, but was fascinated by the luggage conveyor belt.



One day we went up to Berkeley and met up with Calvin's friends to have pizza, and Brian got to meet their daughter who is just a little bit younger than him.



And of course, Brian had a great time playing with Ian. Here he is, showing Ian how to be a troublemaker.



We went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and here is Brian's reaction to the giant Kelp forest display:



His favorite display was a wave that crashed overhead, but it scared him every time.



But more than the fish, he liked the otter display the best, with all its buttons and levers.



And the next best things was the Enchanted Kelp Forest, a play area for kids. It had a wavy floor that he would have walked on back and forth, all day long, if we had let him.



And last but not least, we visited the Pacific ocean, so on this one vacation, Brian got to play on both coasts!



We all had a great time! Now it's back to reality for us!

Ian and Brian

They meet again, this time in California :o)

Hey how do we get into these cabinets?

I love you, man!

Past bedtime? No worries, I'm ready to go!

Whap whap whap!
