Babies in Costumes

I just love babies in halloween costumes. I wish we could dress them up all year. Here are a couple of pictures from the Kelkers bonfire.

Carter in the skunk costume (again). This time we remembered the feet.

Introducing Mia Johnson. This little sweetheart was born back in September to our friends Kristie and Drew. She has the cutest little face and a head full of black hair. Mia is simply a doll baby!

James Kelker as a bat. He's a very busy boy when he's in the back yard. This is the one picture I snapped while playing in the sandbox. (his mom is hold his arm up so we can see the bat wing in action).


Billy Goat Bolles. Although Nate didn't love dressing up, we couldn't get enough of him in this costume.

Another shot of Carter and Nate.

First Trip to the Cottage

Carter visited the cottage for the first time this weekend. Some of his aunts, uncles and cousins came up for a visit.

In the evening the family had a halloween party.

It's Story Time

For the last couple of weeks Carter and I have been enjoying story time at the local library. We invited Nana to come with us today.

Professional Pictures

Yesterday we met up with a great baby photographer, Rachel Vanoven. We had our photo shoot in the backyard. I think we all had fun trying to get Carter to smile for the camera. We were jumping, clapping, waving our hand in the air, singing and calling his name nonstop. I'm sure if our neighbors were home they got a real kick out of watching us!

Here is a sneak peek of the pictures.
