Boo!

Hello and goodbye October- where does the time go??  You always hear it passes too quickly...and having children makes you realize how true that is. 

Corbin and Quinn are doing great.  They are three and big!  Halloween always makes me think back to the NICU.  Quinn was recovering from surgery and didn't even get to wear his Halloween onesie...Corb was kickin' it in his open crib alone.  Again - where does the time go? 

Below are pics from the boys' Halloween.  They had a blast.  The neighborhood was full of kids and I think they liked handing out candy just as much as getting it - although at about 8:00 Quinn said he wanted to go trick-or-treating again. :)  The Fall has been awesome so far...but, again - time is flying by TOO fast!



Beside the cool pumpkins that we (really, Daddy) carved.



Corbin was Frankenstein and Quinn was a bat - and he kept telling us "I'm a nice, friendly bat":)...Mr. Sensitive...



Brotherly Love :)

Camping in the Outdoors!

The Brunin boys camped outside for the first time last night!  They had a lot of fun and found out that s'mores are really good! :)  They loved helping Daddy gather sticks for the fire and helping out with everything.  All three boys and Annie stayed out ALL NIGHT!!  They had to be woken up in the morning so Daddy could make it to work.  It's safe to say that there will probably be a few other camp outs this summer and fall...

Here's the tent (in Corb's defense here...he does have a lot of chigger bites around his middle :))!

Mmmmmmm....

Loving it!!

Summer!

Corbin and Quinn's summer is off to a great start!  They are spending a lot of time outside and in the pool.   The boys are already really good at sleeping in since Mom doesn't have to go to work - which is great!  Below are assorted pics from the end of May and start of June.  They have gotten some good cousin play time!

Corbin found a frog at Grandma and Grandpa Martin's...Quinn is checking it out here...

Corbin was telling the frog to "say cheese"!

Gone Fishin'

Over the holiday weekend the boys went on their first fishing expedition!  Uncle Greg got them fishing poles for their birthday (Quinn picked the Batman pole, Corbin Spiderman), and they have been so excited to go fishing when "summer comes"!  They spent Saturday playing with their fishing poles and they were more than ready to head to Grandma and Grandpa's pond on Sunday.  Their Uncle Ryan, Aunt Michelle and cousins Vivian and Atticus also went fishing. 

About 10 minutes into the adventure Corbin got a bite and reeled it in all on his own!  Then, not even 5 minutes later, Quinn was reeling his own catch in!  Corbin was all about holding the fish and throwing it back in all by himself.  Quinn, on the other hand, wasn't too sure about the fish.  He tried to hold it and immediately dropped it...he decided he only wanted to look at the fish.  It was a lot of fun - hopefully this summer will include a lot more fishing trips!
