Meet the Geese night

Shane is coaching varsity girls basketball this year at Wethersfield. He just can't stay away from coaching for very long. They had a Meet the Geese night at the High School last weekend that we attended. Bryce had so much fun, but just wanted to be with daddy the whole time. He also wanted to be on the court playing with the girls.


      Happy boy

Who Needs Toys?

Who needs toys when there's a whole kitchen of things to play with. Bryce loves to get inside the cupboards when I'm making dinner.
 

When daddy's away, I will take his chair and remote!

and then chew on it

Look mom, I finally got it!

What?

The Perfect 10

Last weekend we traveled to Chicago so that Shane could run a race called the Perfect 10. It involved a 10K and a 10 mile run. He participated in the 10K. I sadly do not have any pictures of the race because it started at 7:30 am, and I may or may not have slept in and missed it. I mean, come on, it was Saturday morning and Bryce was at Grandpa and Grammy's so it meant sleep in time! Anyway, I did meet up with him after the race at Navy Pier and he ended up finishing 67th out of 1,440 people. He also got 5th in his age group! Very proud of him! We spent the rest of the day shopping on Michigan Avenue and of course eating some really great food! We also went on a river tour of the city which was so much fun!


Waiting for the tour to start

We were able to get some great views of the city!


Our hilarious tour guide Rafael!

We went on the 4:30 pm tour, so we were able to see the city at night as well.

So pretty!

Built-in Update

Shane talked me into getting a new bigger TV to fit above the fireplace. I have to admit, it does look pretty good. The first time he hung it up it was way too high and I think the second time was just right! It leaves me just enough room for holiday garlands as well as room on the sides for decorations. Bryce also loves the new access to the empty fireplace and I am now using the old TV stand as a shoe shelf in my closet, so all is well!


Mommy's Little Helper

Bryce loves to help around the house, especially with mopping and sweeping. And of course it's in the room he's not suppose to be in. What a little rebel!



He's so focused!


Just looking out our HUGE front window!

Yelling at Papa from inside!

Where is he mom?

He literally yells, "Papa, papa!" over and over again

Farmer Tucker

It took me a long time to figure out what Bryce was going to be for Halloween. He still drools like crazy so I knew that whatever outfit we put him in would have to have a bib with it. Since his favorite word after "papa" is "tractor", it seemed fitting that we should dress him up as a farmer. I then found a really cute idea on pinterest to make a tractor that would fit around him so it looks like he is driving a tractor. It was suppose to look something like this:

                                 But ended up looking like this:
He ripped the smoke stack off right away, and I'm pretty sure it looks more like a car than a tractor. Oh well, good try!
 
Uh, dad what is she going to do to me?

  

Okay, I don't think this is going well

And then this happened, so we were done with the tractor for the night!
 

Excited about his coin dollar from Great Grandma D and Great Grandpa Carl

Putting it in his pumpkin and listening to the fun sound it makes

Alright now I'm just gonna chew on it

We made about four stops and finally made it to Brett and Jo's. Hayden and Izzy had been into the candy a little bit!

Silly kids!

Bryce goes right to the toys

Best buddies

Izzy loves her some Bryce
