Martineau Family Halloween!

We're ready for Trick-or-treat here at the Martineau's! Our birthdays are all over for now and we have a ladybug and fireman ready to go spook up some candy! I made Mia some bug antennas and we found costumes for them both. Vince wasn't going to wear a costume till he realized that NO COSTUME- NO CANDY. Of course he's been sick the last few days so mom and dad have been eating it. Mia is getting more teeth and that always makes her a joy to be around, NOT.
Gabe turned 33 today- HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD! We love you.
Trying on my bug antennae

Lovin' my ladybug!


SO STINKIN' CUTE!


Hey....


Fireman Vince


Ladybug attacks fireman


Ladybug steals fireman's hat- he doesn't mind.


Dad meets ladybug- he doesn't like her much...


Gonna fly away


Fireman Vince doesn't see the necessity of costume- YET


Fireman Vince's hat keeps blowing off
(those are our neighbors Shawn-Buzz, and Tyler-Woody)


It's REALLY funny!


Finally staying on


Picking out some candy. Now sees the necessity of costume.

Ladybug is amazed





Happy Halloween!











Mia TV

These videos of Mia were all taken in the last 3 days or so- we had a BIG week!

Smack that!

Mia hadn't done any smaking for like a month and then the other day I made meatballs and daddy gave her some- you should have heard THAT smacking! She only smacked her because of the tartness...

We like clapping!

Mia crawls- YAY!!!

Pictures coming soon- see ya later!

The pumpkin patch and Vince turns 3!

We visited some friends in Pittsburgh over the weekend after my cousin's wedding. While we were there we went to a pumpkin patch. It was a lot of fun, Vince loved it. Daddy and Vince went on a giant slide that went under some hay, through a little maze, jumped on a bounce house, and we all went on a hay ride to the pumpkin patch. It was a lot of fun and it was a beautiful day with all the leaves changing. We had a fun time visiting our friends and family at the wedding. Thanks Steve and Jess for a place to stay and a nice weekend!
Sunday we drove to Steubenville so Grandpa Martineau could meet Mia for the first time! Bad mom forgot to take a picture of that! We had a nice visit with Grandpa and the kids took a nap on his comfy bed. Next we went to Wellsburg to visit Nana and saw Aunt Sarah and Hunter, and Uncle Dan and Jesse. Nana made us a delicious dinner and Vince received some great presents since it was his 3rd birthday!

Funny quotes from Vince:

"I wear my knee pads so I don't get Hoort!"

"Knock, knock! (who's there?) "Boo hoo" (boo hoo who?) "Aww... don't cry mommy!"

"Mom- you feed yoor baby witt yoor boob?!"

"Wanna go play witt my buddies!"

Of course I can't think of any more right now, but I'll have more later I'm sure! :)

8 months old!

8 months old

Look at those teeth!


Havin' fun with my loving brother!


We've made it to 8 months and Vince will be 3 this weekend! We can't believe how old they are already. Seems like Mia was being held by Vince with Croup yesterday...
Mia is still trying to crawl, still not crawling forward, but that's a good thing since I'm not ready for that yet! We need to get some baby gates back up. Going to a wedding this weekend, so we should have some fun pictures of that. And we're going to visit the Steubenville/WV family. Mia is meeting Grandpa for the 1st time!
She's having a hard time cutting that 4th tooth in the front, but we're working on it. She likes to gnaw on the coffee table.
Vince is going on the potty pretty well now, we're working on #2 still, but as I type he is on the potty thinking about it right now! Better go...
Hugs and kisses to all!

Got out the heavy pj's and a few extra...

It got so cold this week we pulled out some warm pj's and I had to put some of Vince's old ones on Mia since I'm having a hard time finding some that will fit her thighs! Here is us hanging out taking pictures being silly... If you look close you can see Mia's teeth!
Hehehehehehe......


Love the coffee table Ma!

Almost 3!
Vince has been peeing on the potty now- we're so excited! Funny thing he's been doing lately is at night when he is in his room and he decides he has to go pee or poops (because he refuses to go in the potty with that) he knocks on his door from INSIDE his room so we come up and get him or check on him! It's really funny and we keep telling him to just come out, but he keeps knocking! It's funny.

Me and "my wittew sista!"


Awww.... cars EVERYWHERE!


The bib says it all


Some "artistic shots...." and no those are not balloons on the side of her body!


She IS sweet

Best friends


Blowing in the wind


And this concludes the Vince and Mia show. See you in a few days for Mia's 8 month(!) photos and Vince's 3 years! I can't believe it!
