Gobble, Gobble, Gobble- Week 44

Happy Thanksgiving!  These pictures show off the boys' Thanksgiving sleep n' play outfits that have turkeys on the butt.  Soooo cute.  We ended up putting the boys in the toy and book bins that are in the living room to contain them for the pictures as they kept crawling away.

Little Red Wagon - Week 43

I love these pictures that Nate took for week 43.  Both Ragnar and Magnus are becoming much wigglier and more active, and we are having a harder time getting them to sit still long enough for us to get pictures.  For this week I suggested we use the new-to-us wagon from our dear neighbors the Ulloms as a prop.  The boys LOVE this toy and were very happy to sit inside it for their pictures. 










Auntie Katie

My sister Katelyn has been teaching English to students in South Korea for the past year.  Because of this she had yet to meet Magnus and Ragnar.  She arranged on her way back to Utah to stop and visit with us for a week.  It was so much fun to see Ragnar and Magnus interact with their Auntie Katie.  We got some great pictures of Ragnar and Magnus with their two Aunties.

Halloween

We had a little lion and silly monkey for Halloween.  I feel like the costumes really reflect their personalities.  Magnus is very quiet and observant most of the time but will "roar" when provoked and is very protective of Mama and his toys.  Ragnar is mischievous, curious and ACTIVE!  The boys wore their costumes to the church Halloween party on the Friday before Halloween and to Papa's office on the day of Halloween.  They were both getting ready for bed when our first trick-or-treaters came to the house.  Next year they'll be able to stay awake a bit longer and maybe trick-or-treat our neighborhood.


I LOVE this one!!

10 months old!  Magnus and Ragnar are growing like weeds!  They are into EVERYTHING and extremely curious.  We are busy, busy, busy all day long.

  • Extremely vocal: laughs, giggles, babbles, screeches
  •  Loves splashing and playing in the bathtub
  • Army crawls all over the place
  • Can stand up on his own from sitting in our laps

Ragnar
  • Size 3 diaper
  • 6-12 M pants, 6-month onesies, 6–9-month sleepers

  • Curious about everything: where things go, how they move, what things are
  • Pulls himself up to stand on everything and everyone
  • Can get into a seated position on his own from a crawl
