September/October

Taking pictures is something that gets neglected around here...so our selection from September and October is scarce! But here are a few of the 'highlights' from the past couple months. Little Britches getting into the tub AFTER he already had a bath and was ready for bed! (but mommy the toys are still in here...)

 Taking a walk and watching the 'bombine' (his own words!) aka combine... it is hard to believe how much he really is talking. He will repeat anything and everything you say...if not the whole sentence then the last word of it for sure. He is always ready for a laugh...either to make someone laugh or to go along with a joke someone else is playing. And heights? What are those??? Surely Mommy will catch me....every time!

 The other night while getting supper on the kids needed a distraction...so we put a Pinterest idea to work. Send a Hug: you have your kid lay down on a large piece of paper and draw their outline. Then they can decorate it any way they want, roll it up and stick it in the mail and the recipient gets a hug. :) We did not get pictures of the finished projects but that would have ruined it for the recipients.

 Big Guy's garden produce this year! I think we mentioned  before that the total cantaloupe count was 31?! That is our little green thumb.

 Everything that was brought in before the freeze:

 Fresh Cut Flowers from the garden. The Cosmos were free seed sent by the seed company and the yellow and orange flowers were 'pot' marigolds. The pot marigolds were supposed to help keep grasshoppers out of the garden. Not sure if it worked or not but we did not have as may as last year.

 Big Guy working on his Hug.

 Getting ready to go to Kindergarten in a year!!!! That is hard to believe and a new reality that will take some getting used to!

Playing dolls at the home of some dear friends. I thought these dolls looked a lot like Little Lady and Big Guy.

 

 Playing with the many many tractors. 

(it is hard to get him to 'pose' for the camera!)

 On the way to convention.
