Happy Halloween Pancakes

This is the first time that I've done anything like this with food, and Josh loved it. My mother-in-law sent us this magazine with a whole bunch of fun Halloween recipes, and making ghost pancakes was the easiest. You just add a bit of cocoa powder to a small bit of pancake batter, make little circles and a smile for the face, flip the face over when one side is done cooking (my spatula didn’t get under the little eyes so well, so I flipped ‘em with a fork), and then you plop some regular batter on top of the face for the ghost’s body.

Oh, I’m going to try food dye next time—a green face with orange body or whatever!

Growing Caleb

A little over two years ago, video was taken of Josh crawling toward this same dinosaur book. Nate tries to get Caleb to do the same, but Caleb has no interest in the book. He wants the camera.

With over a month's practice since this video was taken, Caleb now crawls like a champ. Josh loves it.
