Four and Two....PART ONE

Since I have been working so much the last few weeks, I neglected to blog about TWO VERY IMPORTANT DAYS - sorry for yelling, I just wanted to emphasize how important these days were, and the only other way I can think of to draw attention to these days is to make...yep, you guessed it...♥♥...and I am pretty sure everyone has had enough of those, am I right?

ANYWAY, birthdays...the M & M's are another year older - (sniff, sniff)

♥October 31 - Big Mack turns 4!♥

 Pumpkin carving...it was Halloween

 Is it just me, or from the angle of this picture does this look like the most unsafe activity you have EVER seen!  Yep, that's what it looks like alright ;)

Mario...he did not stand a chance with the M & M's, they loved him so much, the decapitated him within 24 hours of opening the package...poor Mario.

 Got a Leapster from Nana & Bampi - very cool.  for some reason he called it his "kiki" for the first 2 days - it was weird.  He calls it a leapster now :)

 Getting a little overwhelmed with all the picture taking and hull-a-ba-loo!
Now you would think (given who his MAMA is) that Mackenzie would LOVE the spotlight, just the opposite, he is pretty low key, when things get too crazy, he retreats...RETREATS!

 Only Uncle Jer could make a magnifying glass WAAAAY more fun than it actually is :)

 Playing the Leapster with Bampi

 Blowing out the candles!!!!  Big Mack's favourite part!
And yes i made that cake, I know it looks like it came from a store, but i made it to look that way, okay?

 So pumped

 Uncle jer having a bit too much frun with the magnifying glass :)

 Uncle Jer is a giant, when he was looking for trick or treaters I thought this was a hilarious picture!

 Matea and Bob made it into costumes....Big Mack, not so much.
He stayed true to his initial costume idea...he wanted to be "A Mackenzie"

 Uncle Jer and Matea having a little cuddle

Okay so in between writing this post I also chatted on the phone, sent a few emails, found ANOTHER COOL blog, chatted with Mack, made muffins...etc.
So now there will be a PART TWO hopefully later tonight, the real reason....Miss. Matea is up from her nap, and she requires a great deal of attention sometimes, she is TWO now after all.
