Photo Dump

Here is a photo dump from the last month:

This might be a little over board, but I haven't posted in so long and I don't want to forget any of these photos, so here goes.
 When we got home from the grocery store last week he would NOT let me put him down, and with lots of cold/frozen groceries in the car and several hours before his daddy arrived home, I had to figure out what to do, so I thought I'd try the "Baby Genius" on demand that is offered on our TV - and I know I shouldn't have, but it was 3 minutes and I thought it might work - to my utter surprise, it REALLY worked.  He was glued to the TV for the entire 3 minutes - which was exactly enough time for me to get out all the groceries and take this quick photo...no more TV at our house though.  It's crazy how it completely takes all his attention, I've never seen anything like it.  Scary!
 He found my plastic storage in the kitchen and just climbed right on in.  To my dismay, the cabinet he is in connects under the sink and then over to my cleaning products and he figured that out very quickly.  We now have a new plastic storage cabinet in the kitchen - and it's the only thing he can get to.




 For some reason my little man LOVES the bottom rack of the dishwasher.  He was working with the tires and trying to figure out how to get the entire thing out of the bottom, so I pulled it out and placed the diapers on top so he could roll it around.  He thought that was the greatest thing ever. 
 The new cabinet he can get in...and the mess made.

T man loves his new friend Avery.  They are really about the same age, but he didn't really get too interested but just recently.




Anything that moves is invariably entertaining to T man, and he has to know how it works.  Here he is checking out the stroller tires and making sure they are all on there correctly. :)  Jonathan says he is trying to figure out if we can lift it and add some mud tires...ha ha.

 We had a garage sale a few weeks ago and he played in the driveway with all the pine cone droppings while we cleaned up - he was so dirty but had a blast.
 Here we are matching...all three of us in grey - this seems to happen so much and we never plan it!
 Fall festival at our friends Nick and Lucy's church is Somerville - all the other kids were wearing costumes, but I didn't realize that it was actually a fall fest until we arrived...we mistakenly thought it was a bonfire with the church.  It was a ton of fun though!


Sweet boy playing with the coaster.  He is fully fascinated with the stone coasters we have.
 This walker has been a life saver.  He loves to walk around and get wherever he wants to go without crawling or getting our assistance.

 A little pumpkin fun.  This was the first pumpkin he has seen, so he was very interested in touching it and checking it out.



Loves swinging!
 T man loves playing in his toy chest in his room.  The day after he rode on daddy's tractor (which is red), he pulls this out for the first time and starts playing with it....I don't know that he really relates this, but it seems like he does.  We don't give them enough credit for figuring things out.

 A little Autumn Photo shoot:




Once again, we match...we went to church and didn't realize it until we were walking out the door, so I grabbed my camera on the way out the door and took a few photos before we changed and had lunch with my parents.

Bonfire Time!

I'm so behind in blogging lately...hopefully I'll be able to catch up in the next few days.

We had our first party at the house since we moved in January on October 22nd. Our Sunday School class came out for good eats, hayride, bonfire, and pumpkin carving contest. We had about 30 people out here - around 10 couples and their kids - we had a great time! I was so busy with enjoying myself, that we didn't really get any photos...here's what I took at the end of the night.


We had hotdogs, chips, smores, and appetizers.
                                         



 Just a few of the pumpkins carved ... a car, cinderella, and the other one is turned so I can't tell, but we also had elmo, cinderella's castle, and they were all so cute!
