Eleanor and Bennett's busy fall!



Bennett has begun to discover the joy of jumping in his Rainforest jummper!

Boy, does Bennett LOVE big sister. All she has to do is walk into the room and he bursts into a HUGE grin. She is so wonderful with him.

Eleanor is excited for Halloween and counts the days until 'the big night!.'

Eleanor marched in Menomonie's parade as 80s classic cartoon character Rainbow Bright! She made rainbow colored sand and carried star sprinkles. 

Bennett was quite dapper in his baptismal outfit. 

Operation cheeks; successful.
