Ok here it is our house is officially haunted and by more then just our own two little spookies. Jacob says that the reason that you can't see him in the one picture is because the fog decided that it needed to be the only one in the picture. Zach is still in school so he hasn't even seen this yet. Hope he likes it to. We will post more pics with the kids in costume on halloween. Thanks for looking.

This is the last picture to add I was actually supposed to add it a couple of weeks ago when we took the picture. It is of Jumba our dog he is a Catahoula. You can't really tell from the picture but he is spotted and has partially grey eyes and he is pretty big and strong. I think they are a cross between a mastiff and a wolf bread to hunt wild boars originally. He is our guard dog. He is great with the kids but not much else. ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK. We still love him though, well most of the time anyway.
Jacob wanted to add a picture showing that he had lost his first tooth. He just lost it last friday and the tooth under it was already half way in he has put a lot of effort into keeping the old tooth in his mouth as you can see. He was very excited though that the tooth fairy brought him some money although he was a little concerned to know if they were ever mean when they came. He is going through nightmares right now I think it has a little to do with halloween and all of the decorations and shows on tv. I guess we shouldn't have let him watch the Exorcist last week. To bad kids don't come with an owners manual. Just kidding mom it wasn't the exorcist what kind of a mother do you think that I am it was just Nightmare on Elm street. hahaha.
For those of you who don't know Jacob is totally obsessed with stuffed animals. He carries them everywhere. Every room in our house has at least five or six of them or more at any given time. We are constantly threatening to throw them away if they aren't picked up. When we were in Florida in Aug he found this little penguin (pictured) at the contemporary hotel gift shop he insisted on buying him with his money that he took. Usually he buys mostly plutos (we have so many different stuffed plutos) but this time he wanted this little penguin. When we got him back to the hotel we discovered that he is a virtual pet for online. The kids have had so much fun playing with him online and the penguin is now a favorite stuffed animal he is always included even though the others do change around from time to time. When Craig was in Vegas last month one of his accounts sold webkinz so he got Zach the bullfrog which was the pet of the month at the time and Jacob the Bat which comes out only at halloween. I must admit that at first I wasn't excited when I realized that it was an online thing but the kids actually get along when they are on it and there isn't a whole lot of fighting over it. The games are easy enough that Jacob can play and even when you can't complete the game you still earn money that you need to take care of the pet so Zach doesn't get frustrated like he normally does when he can't pass a game. It is a fun sight and the kids really enjoy it I also don't have to worry about where they are when they are on it. It is a little young for Zach but he does have fun helping Jacob with it so it all works out. Besides that with Zach a computer game is still a game.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Here is our big family spider that greets you as you walk into our house. Jacob wanted to add a picture of him to the kids blog even though he says he doesn't look very friendly. He is pretty cool though you have to admit. It has been awhile since we posted so the kids have a few pictures that they wanted to add. We haven't been on any trips since the last one that we took in Aug with Aunt Jenn but we are still having fun around the house and in town.
