Could this baby be any happier?

Oh, the things you learn when you're #4 with 2 older brothers...he's an early reader ;) I think he's learning about "Amazing Snakes" here...

Silly, Silly Smallings

Noah got these "disguise" glasses in his halloween treats, and they provided hours (or at least minutes) of entertainment for the Smalling "kids"...

...from the biggest...
...to the smallest...

I don't know where they get all the crazy!? (Please don't answer that, Mom and Dad!)

At what point will he not be shocked by the sight of the camera?

Trick or Treating 2008

We've enjoyed trick-or-treating the last few years with friends who live in a neighborhood near ours. The Cromwells have hosted this, and we all bring food to share and send the kids out (usually with the dads) in shifts while we visit and supervise the little ones in the playroom. Dads who are not on trick-or-treat duty sit in front of the house in a line of lawn chairs and hand out candy. This year, they started asking trivia questions to trick-or-treaters and giving them candy based on how well they answered (they ALL got some, you just got more if you were right!). I think the neighbors began to wonder what was in the tea punch we were drinking!
Here's the Smalling clan, ready to go get some candy!!
