max has a new friend...
yes - her shirt says "WILD"!
we've just been hanging around (literally)...outside it is sleeting and hopefully changing to snow soon, so the next post will hopefully include pictures of us playing in the white stuff! 
Our little guy is 2 months old already and still growing like crazy! He'll go for a check-up this week, so we will update you on his size soon. He is sleeping less during the day, giving us more time to play with him. He is a happy, easy-going baby. He gets fussy almost every night around 9:30, but other than that he usually just cries to tell us he's hungry or tired.
Elli is still making us laugh all the time. She is the ultimate 2-year-old country music fan - she loves learning singers and their songs by watching CMT and listening to the radio. She'll shout out the singers after hearing just a couple of notes. Her favorites? I'd say Toby Keith, Alan Jackson, Josh Turner, the Wreckers, Sara Evans, Keith Urban and Jason Aldean top the list, but I could list a whole page of those she likes! When we took the pictures below Elli said, "I wear my 'Tardinals' hat like Nick and Jessi do." :)
getting ready for the festivities:
ready to prowl!
our little indian had a great time on halloween (though she wasn't too fond of her cousin makayla's "old lady" mask!)
elli's favorite candy of the night? the turquoise blue tootsie roll pop!
ralphy just watched...
the "leaf-is" (that's elli's way of saying "leaves") are falling...
