he is so stinkin' cute! These are his 4 month pictures. I never got around to posting them. He will be 5 months old on Monday. Where has the time gone? Can I just say I am happy to not be pregnant @ this point in my life :)! I sure am enjoying this little guy!

P.S. Thanks for scanning the pictures for me Stephanie!

Bishops Pumpkin Farm!

We sure enjoyed the Field Trip to the Pumpkin Farm! We got to take a train ride, pick a pumpkin off the vine, feed the goats, take a hay ride, jump in the hay bounce, play on the slides, & visit with our friends! I love Fall & all of the activites that accompany it! Stay tuned for more PP pictures. The older boys want to go! Happy Fall Ya'll!

Can you feel the LOVE?

This is my new favorite picture. You can just FEEL & SEE the LOVE! I LOVE how Brody has his arms on John's shoulders. It looks like he is trying to hug him! So sweet! I am in LOVE with my boys!

Look Who's sitting up!

At 4 1/2 months old, Baby Brody sat up this morning all by himself. We were playing down on the floor & I wanted to see if he could do it with out help from me or his BUMBO chair. As you can see in the photo, he is hunched over to hold himself up. But he did it! He balanced himself for about two minutes & then he rolled over. We'll have to see if he'll do it later for Dad. I was trying so hard to get him to smile for the picture but I think he was trying to concentrate-LOL! It is so much fun having a new baby in the house.

Walking School bus!

This was a great event put on by the school! A walking school bus is a group of children walking to school with one or more adults. There was a map at school this week & you could find out where the walking school bus would stop in your neighborhood. There were hundreds of children walking to school today. It was so cool to be a part of it. Our boys have been looking forward to this all week. At the bus stop they received a bracelet that would get them into a special assembly once they made it to school. Brody, Garrett, & I had fun walking to school with Tanner & Carter & their friends. It was a huge success & we hope they do it again!
P.S. I was trying to take pictures while pushing Garrett & Brody in the stroller. A few might be blurry & not in the best lighting. I was just happy to capture the moment!

Sweet Beginnings

This is one of the layouts for my October Sweet Beginnings class. Again, these sweet pictures are of my friends little girl. Isn't she so sweet? Thanks A for the pictures!!! I loved how this layout turned out & seeing sweet Hallie makes me wish I had at least one little girl :). It is a good thing that I can at least scrap a few pink layouts here & there. This class is on Thursday Oct. 25Th. I will post the other layout later this week. Again, you can request a boy or a girl kit. We complete two, two page layouts in each class. The boy version of this layout will have stars instead of flowers! Happy Scrapping! Enjoy the day!
