Hot Dog Dance

Atticus was dancing like a crazy man this morning. He loves the music for the "Hot Dog Dance" on the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse show. Ben provided the lyrics and percussion for the song. (Somehow I posted two of the same thing not sure how I did that or how to delete it. Opps!)

Zoolights

We went to Zoolights on Friday and really enjoyed seeing all of the lights. We didn't get to see too many 'aminals' as Atticus calls them, but it was a good time anyway!

Walk in Someone Else's Shoes

This is my favorite picture. The shoe looks as big as he is.

Atticus loves trying on our shoes. It is fair to say that Ben's shoes are SLIGHTLY bigger than Atticus' feet!

Halloween Part 2 - Festival

My mom made Atticus a cute monkey costume for Halloween this year. We also had the Sparky costume so he wore one to school and the other to a church festival. Here he is pre-festival with his blanket, or "gee-ko" as he calls it, relaxing before the big event.
Why play games and eat candy when you can pick up rocks and, ...

pour them in the parking lot!

Playing games at the festival with Grandma Roat.

A great picture of Ben and our little monkey man.

Halloween Part 1 - School

Atticus riding in a car at school after the "festivities" were over. We ditched the horns and hood as he was burning up!












Sliding down the slide on the playground.













Eating yummy gingerbread cookies!













Playing with trains and beans before the all-school costume parade. It was a fun day.

Pumpkin Carving

We carved our Halloween pumpkin together on Halloween Eve. Atticus' job was to stir the pumpkin seed 'soup'. This was a job he gave himself.
Ben carved the pumpkin face


The finished product! (These pictures posted out-of-order somehow!)

A work in progress....
