Pumpkin Patch 2013

A perfect, sunny day for the pumpkin patch.  The temperature was just right...not too hot, not too cold, at least for the first hour.  Everyone had so much fun and we came home with lots of little pumpkins.

Climbing the pumpkin hill was a hit again!

Kept getting lots of hiney shots.

She decided it was easier to climb in and out of the strollers.

This year there was a pig...P.U.!

We even tried the hayride this year.

Lunch at Hooks afterwards to watch the airplanes for awhile.

Thanks for playing at the pumpkin patch with us Hunter!

Can you spell...

We are having too much fun with this!

And other stuff we've been up to.

Movie night!

Drive in style!

Less eating of the crayons lately and more coloring.  

This one is also babbling up a storm.  She says JuJu and she tries to say Brother.  

Doing great with her sign language for please and thank you!  So smart, this one.

Happy Birthday Nana

We went to Nana and Papa's house Saturday to help celebrate Nana's 83rd birthday.

Everyone loved the cupcakes!

Best group shot of four busy kids.

Emerson loved the view.  This was her favorite window.

Happy Birthday Nana!

Getting SO Big!

Everyone is getting so big and so smart.  We are LOVING our new school and that's what we've been up to this month, a very busy back to school season.  The kids are doing GREAT!
Emerson's teacher sends me pictures of her during the day.

She pulled her box of diapers to the sensory table to make herself a seat.  They are learning the cutest things.  She now helps pull up her pants and tries to put on her socks and shoes.  Taking them off is still, however, her favorite thing to do.

I don't have pictures of C and J at school but they are learning so much.  They come home doing sign language letters, yoga poses and they are each spelling their name - orally.  We are impressed.  

I love hearing about their day and listening to the songs they are singing.  I know many of the songs and can sing along!  Yesterday, I told Julianna that I am a teacher and she said

 "No, you are a mommy."

It's amazing to see them grow right before our eyes - almost overnight, it seems.

We {heart} tractors

I found some fun pictures from our time with Grammy, Grandpa, Great Grandpa Kitty and Teddy in August.

 Our new tractor shirts and cameras...thanks Grammy!

A second trip to the dentist.  Everything was much easier this year but I'm glad 

Grammy was here to go with us.  We need one adult just for trips to the potty!

Hey Mom, Look...no cavities!
