Pumpkin Patch

October 11

We took advantage of a beautiful fall day to go to Iron's for a pumpkin. We rode the hay wagon out to the field and Jake picked a very nice green pumpkin. We got the usual fritters, donuts, and apples too! Mmmm! They had a fire engine, puppet show, and animals to feed...all of which Jake thoroughly enjoyed! Grace was more interested in sleeping and eating.

Grace - 2 Months

October 11

Who does Grace look like? She definitely resembles Jake, but I also think she looks a lot like Mike at times. Then, I looked at my baby album at my mom's the other night and she looks a lot like me as a baby too! Kind of crazy, eh?
I'll have to post some of our baby pictures so we can have a true vote!

Bath Night

October 1

 

Isn't this a funny picture? No, Mike doesn't typically bathe with Jake, but for some reason decided to on this night. Good thing it's such a big tub! Grace loves her baths. Check out her belly!

Applefest

September 27

We had a lot of fun at Applefest this year...we met up with Mimi, Grandpa, and Josh and also ran into lots of other people we knew like Gigi and Natalie and Graham. Jake enjoyed eating a big soft pretzel and some french fries (healthy, I know!). We made sure to buy our usual apple fritters, cider doughnuts, and cider from Iron's. Yum! Jake also loved checking out the fire engine. Grace slept the whole time. What a good baby!

Aunt Christina meets Grace

September 11

Aunt Christina made a trip home from Auburn to meet her new neice. It was love at first sight...

Happy Birthday, Grammy!

Happy Birthday, Grammy!!! Uncle Jarrod was able to come home to interview, meet his new neice, and celebrate Grammy's birthday. Pretty productive trip home, eh!?

Our good friends, Jon and Becky Fedor, had a baby boy just 2 weeks after Grace was born. Here is a picture of their first meeting. They seem excited to meet each other, don't they!?

I'm back!

I know, I haven't posted in forever! Sorry about that. Things have been pretty hectic. I'm back to working a few days a week, and with taking care of two little ones I just haven't had time to blog! I have been taking pictures though, and we've done some fun things this fall so I'll do a few catch-up posts and try to stay more current from here on out.

Grace has been doing AWESOME! At 5 weeks she started smiling and sleeping for about 6 hour stretches at night. As of last week, she started sleeping about 11 hours at night! It was probably 6 months before Jake ever did that, so I feel very blessed for that! She is a pretty happy girl so long as she is not hungry, sleepy, or in need of a diaper change (aren't we all?). At her 2 month check-up she weighed 14 lbs. 13 oz. and was 24" long...very healthy!
