The Last Six Months!!!

Ben, McKenna, and Jake: sporting various outfits throughout the day! Ben and Super Kenna Save the Day!

Ben took his first trip to the denist at the end of November!
He was awesome...even helped clean his own teeth.

Checking out teeth from Goliath!

Playing doctor...no shots at this visit!!!

And yes, there is a heartbeat!

Ben began swim lessons this fall!

No fear!

He was so excited to finally be in the water,

after watching Jacob for the past two years.

We decided to paint pumpkins for Halloween this year!

The kids loved it! Everyday they would ask

if they could paint some more. So, each day we added a new color!

Ben was very creative!

Showing off their master pieces!!!

The Beautiful Ladybug, the Fierce Pirate, and

our Spectacular Spider Man! We went to an orchard in Jonestown, Pa. for their Fall Festival, in October.

We rode on a hay ride, ate homemade applesauce, picked our own pumpkins,

got our faces painted, bounced in a fun house, and had a blast!

Kenna Rae got a pumpkin painted on her face!

Jake tried out the bounce house...Ben stepped in, and

immediately got out. Oh well, maybe next year!

Jake and Ben, helping Dad pick out the perfect pumpkin!

Kenna Rae found one too!

After the festival, we celebrated Ben's 3rd Birthday,

with a Lego Cake!

In September, we went to the Strasburg RailRoad

to check out Thomas the Train!

Todd and Pappy B tried out some of the toys!

Nanny and Pappy B taking a ride on Thomas with

three very excited grandchildren!

Jake and Ben got to race around the track

on their own little trains!

Visiting with Sir Topham Hatt!

We went to the Washington DC Zoo in August!

(Not the best zoo, hardly any animals were in the exhibits.

Despite McKenna screaming for the entire 2 hour drive,

and Todd getting lost, we still had a great time!)

We got to ride the Bears!

Big Paws, Little hands!

My husband on the days he forgets to shave!

Topping off the day with a cold, creamy treat!

Ocean City Maryland

Luckily, we had an oceanfront room...so mom could get up at 5am...to claim

a spot near the water and carry the

4 million items required to survive a day on the sand for

3 kiddos between the aged of 1-4.
(Mom needed a vacation from the vacation by the end of the week)

Kenna and Jake Lounging outside of our hotel,

patiently waiting to take a dip in the pool.

I built a kayak around Jake, and he paddled

out to sea with his sand shovel!

We took a day to explore Asseteague Island.

The Sand Dunes were loaded with misquitoes..and no horses.

Our group was not too happy at this point.

Finally, some horses!!!

Mom and the kiddos had fun with the horse exploration

and now we're ready for the beach!

Our little escapie...learned how to work

the zipper of the tent. (Nothing is kid

proof)!

Beach Bums all the way Baby!!!

The Felix Fam had an awesome time at the beach!
