Just playing catch-up...

Things around our house have been fun but non-stop. I'd love to have the time to sit down and scrapbook the fun. Of course, that doesn't happen these days. Poor Sam's baby book hasn't even been started. I don't feel too bad though because I use our blog as a way to document our memories. Well, I haven't been very good at that lately either. So, tonight I decided I better catch up before I move on with the fun we had today at the Pumpkin Patch. All of these pictures are from the last month or so. As I was downloading all of these pictures (it takes FOREVER), I realized they are all from the weekends. We love the weekends!!!

This is just a cute picture I got one Sunday before church. We actually had a few minutes of down time before we had to walk out the door! That is always amazing!!!

We visited David at a Safety Public Education one Saturday afternoon. The kids love playing on the fire truck but they were even happier to play in a police car. Sorry this picture isn't too clear. David took it with his cell phone. I don't know if you can see their facial expressions but Addie is as happy as can be and Logan is seriously thinking about the fact that he is sitting in a police car.

On another Saturday, we had a lot of fun at Touch-A-Truck. Lots of big trucks for kids to climb on and play on. It was great but there was A LOT of horn blowing going on. It was cute at first but my ears were ringing by the time we left. I think Sam was totally over the horn blowing as well. He didn't let us know. He's still our little easy going baby boy!!




Sam is eating more solids these days. I can't say he is crazy about any of it yet but he is at least eating it. It's a lot of messy, messy fun!

Fall Fest at our school was fun again this year. The kids had a great time!



I just thought this was a cute picture of David and Sam hanging out in my room before the festivities started. It's always a lot of fun to have them come visit!

Logan is playing fall ball this year. He is doing great! He got the first game ball and he was super excited. With this crazy weather we have had this fall, we have had more games cancelled due to rain than we have actually gotten to play. Logan cries now every time one gets cancelled. The boy just wants to play baseball!!!
We made our last trip of the summer to Grammy and Papa Skip's house over Labor Day weekend. A lot of fun was had by all! Addie caught a fish with Papa Skip!! I think that was the highlight of the trip for her. She feels like she can hang with the boys now!!

Sam had a great trip this time too. He came out on the boat with us and loved playing in the sand. He even liked the boat ride for the most part. He also loved sleeping on the boat! We love our Sam!!!
We have also been making the most of the beautiful days! We drove out to the Natchez Trace one Sunday afternoon. We found some great trails to hike and found a great creek to play in.
The kids found this craw-dad (Cray Fish if you want to be technical). This reminded me of Skip. I won't be too specific but Skip had a great way to wake us up early in the morning if we were being difficult. We had a creek in our back yard with craw-dads. A few of them made it into our beds early in the morning when necessary!!


Our attempt at a self-portrait of us together. It's not the best but at least we are in a picture together.
I think I'm almost caught up now! There are a few pictures here and there but they will eventually make it into a post one way or another. Hopefully I'm back on track and will stay on track. I really do love looking back at our memories! What did we ever do without the world of blogging?
