Happy 35th Daddy!!

Daddy turned 35 today! It was a busy day. Not much time to celebrate. We started the day with a music card for daddy. Luke and Angie made the cake. After work, we sang happy birthday quick before getting in the car to go to Chase-n-Madison's for the weekend. Mom and dad spent the weekend in Portland Maine, the kids were having a cousin's weekend. Big fun for everyone!!

Just a Wednesday Afternoon in the Peabody Household...

Two funny things that happened today:

1)After bath time and as we were settling in for books, Luke was running at top speed into Paige’s room a hit his side on the footstool of her glider. As he was crying on the floor, Paige said, “What happened Mommy?” I explained to her why Luke was crying. She said, “Kiss it”. I thought it was very sweet that she wanted to kiss his boo boo UNTIL she walked over to the footstool and kissed it instead.
2)Tonight, Luke was able to watch one TV show before bed. I told him that after the show was over he had to turn the TV off and go to bed. After the show was over, I said “OK buddy time to turn the TV off!” Just as I said that I heard the “TV lady” say “Don’t go away, Curious George is coming up next” Luke then said to me, “We can’t turn the TV off, the lady said so!”

Luke's Drawings -

Luke drew these two pictures the other day. I thought they were pretty good, shows how far he has come...

Jumping....

Paige's new thing is jumping. She is so proud of herself. Loves to jump for people, like a circus animal...

Visit to the Farm -

We went to Papa's farm for the weekend. This is the first time we've been there since the horses arrived. The kids had a blast "helping" around the farm and seeing the horses up close and personal. It was very cool to come downstairs in our PJs and walk right into the barn to say good morning to the horses. I think the kids liked nugget the best. Paige kept yelling "HI NUGGET", maybe because he is a different color? Marley didn't know quite what to make of the horses at first but he was loving the farm too as always!

Trip to Silverbook Farm -

We took a trip to Silverbook farm last weekend with Grandma and Grandpa. We attempted to go apple picking but apparently there are no apples left in the southcoast, so we opted for pumpkin picking, farm animals and hayrides instead. It was a cute little farm and very clean. The kids loved it.

Time for the hayride -

BAA Half Marathon -

Mom and I watched daddy and auntie kelly run the BAA half marathon this past weekend. We met up with Chase and Madison which was bonus fun. We had fun playing while we waited for them to come by. The both did great...

Birthday Hat Candy

Yesterday, Luke and I put up the Halloween decorations. One of the little bears was holding a candy corn. Luke asked if that was a type of a candy, wanted to know what it was called and asked if we could get some at the grocery.

Today, Grandma and Grandpa just left for the grocery. Luke says to me, "are they going to get me some of the...the one candies that I want...the birthday hat candies"
