James -, Caroline - , and Jack-O-lanterns

Yes, I've used that title before. But, I think it's cute so I'm going to keep using it.

And here are last years pumpkins. Wow! What a difference a year makes!

Firsts

We have had a very busy start of school. With the boys well into their kindergarten year, I finally understand how parents with school aged children feel. Busy, busy, busy!

A lot is going on in the Chupp house! The boys LOVE school. Their teacher said that Jack "has a heart of gold" and James "is a great role model for his classmates". They are both well on their way to being good readers and they love, love, love to learn.

And, miss Caroline is doing great! She has had a lot of "firsts" in the past couple of weeks. She is eating solids like a pro! She ate a whole cheese sandwich today. She is getting very sassy. She wants what she wants and she will NOT tolerate not getting it. And, the BIG one . . .

She is standing! Love this picture! She, however, does not love doing it but we try to practice a lot.

Sweet baby girl!

With the weather being so much cooler we have been spending a lot of time outside.

I think these two are the real twins!

You can get a good view of her new hand in this picture. Plus I think it's cute that it looks like Jack is showing her something.

And we went to the park today. I think this is the first time Caroline has actually "played" at the park. Do you think she liked it?

Any chance she looks happy in this picture? This is a good example of the sass I was talking about. She makes her opinion known!

And her latest first . . .

She swung on a swing for the first time and LOVED it. I think she would have fallen asleep if I would have let her.

Hoping for many more "first" in the coming months!
