4 months old, 5 months old, Karina's birthday, Ya Ya and Far Far's Visit and Halloween!

A lot to cover in this blog. The boys are now 5 months old, hard to believe! In these past couple of months Karina turned 3, Ya Ya and Far Far came to visit, the boys are rolling over, Neil has 2 teeth, the boys are eating solids and Karina is on her way to being potty trained! Yes, I guess you could say we are keeping busy :)

Here are some of the highlights:

5 months old!

4 months old!

Red Sox fans!

In September Marie took a quick trip to Boston for a conference and luckily was able to squeeze in some apple picking with Rinus, Daniel, Emilija and some friends.

The Ericson children! We still can't believe we have 3 kids!

Pretty girl. Showing off her smile.

Princess Karina. She is definitely a girly girl. Loves to dress up!

Ya Ya and Far Far came to visit to meet the boys and celebrate Karina's 3rd birthday!

Karina's party was at a local pumpkin patch, complete with hayrides, pony rides and cupcakes!

Picking pumpkins.

Taking a hay ride while Ya Ya and Far Far watched the boys.

Karina "helped" bake cupcakes for her friends.

Karina, Ya Ya, Marie and some friends did a 5K walk for Women in the Congo on a beautiful fall day. This is how Karina moved the fastest.

Birthday cake!

Abby Cadaby (or Abby Dabby as Karina says it).

La la la la la la la la la la la. Neil and Paul turned quite a few heads with their smurf costumes, mostly parents since kids these days don't seem to know who smurfs are.

Another cute 5 month shot.
