Happy Fall Y'all!

Today we went to the pumpkin patch. The weather was beautiful and we enjoyed selecting our very own pumpkins. We even picked out some little ones for Gracie.

Bringing some Halloween cheer!

Today, I got to go to a local nursing home in my Halloween costume. Mommy couldn't go because she had to stay home with Alex but I was able to go with Miss Andrea and my good friend Adrienne. Here is a picture of me with a few of my buddies at the party. The folks sure did enjoy seeing all of us in our costumes. We were a bit shy around them but they didn't seem to mind. They even gave us a few candy treats! Yummy! In case you were wondering, I am dressed up as Woody from Toy Story.

It's a Hoedown!

Every year at my school they have a big carnival called the "Hoedown." We kids get to go and have a great time playing games, riding ponies, jumping in moonwalks, riding trains and dunking our teachers in the dunk tank. All of the proceeds go to our school. Adam and I were very good and won lots of prizes. Mommy was working the cotton candy booth at the end of the day and we had to leave early because we were being overwhelmed by bees! They could not stay away from all the sweet stuff. It was a super fun day and we can't wait for it to come again next year!

Crowe's Nest Farm

We got to go to Crowe's Nest Farm with some friends from our MOMS club. It was so much fun and I really enjoyed seeing all the animals - especially the pigs. They were HUGE! There was a demonstration of milking a cow, some turtles to watch and even a pumpkin patch to walk through. There were all kinds of birds, animals and even snakes and lizards. There was a fun hay ride that I enjoyed. Unfortunately, Gracie cried and was very frightened by the whole hay ride experience. She enjoyed the rest of the day though!

A visit from the Tooth Fairy

Last night I lost my very first tooth! I was able to wiggle it out all by myself. Daddy couldn't even do it but I could! I was very excited about losing my tooth. I left it under my pillow and the Tooth Fairy brought me a one dollar bill. Thank you Tooth Fairy. Here is a picture of me after my tooth came out. You can see the new tooth already poking through the gum.

Just swingin'

We went to the park last week and Grace had her first ride in the swing. She really enjoyed it.

Just the girls

Here is Mommy and Grace. Thanks to Miss Tiffany for sharing the picture.

Big Brother, Little Sister

Now that Grace is getting a little bit bigger, it is easier for me to hold her. I am so glad!

Happy Birthday Mrs. Conley!

On Friday we had a great birthday party for my kindergarten teacher. She is such a wonderful lady. We all had a great time - even Mommy and Grace were able to come to the party.

Daddy and Grace

Daddy can really make Gracie giggle. He gently tosses her up in the air and she squeals with delight.

Picture Day

On Saturday, it was picture day for all of us soccer players. Here we are looking great in our uniforms.

Handsome Soccer Boys

Picture with my friend

Here is me and my good friend Reli. I talk about her so much when we aren't together. "I miss 'Relya.' "

Adam and Reli's 1st soccer practice

Last week, Adam and his good friend Aurelia had their first soccer practice. It was really cute to see all the little ones with their soccer shoes and shin guards.

First cereal

Baby Grace has started eating rice cereal. Here are some pictures of her first tastes of the mushy stuff. Yummy!!

Welcome Baby Michael

Last weekend we had a baby shower for Baby Michael and his Mommy. We had to go to the pool with Daddy while Mommy threw the party with Baby Grace. Baby Michael was the perfect gentleman for his "coming out" party!

Healthy baby

Grace had her 4 month well checkup on Wednesday. She was perfect according to the doctor but Mommy didn't need him to tell her that! She was 12 pounds 14 ounces and 24 inches long. That puts her in the 25-50th percentile for both her height and weight. We're going to embark on some rice cereal this weekend. It should be interesting.

Adam's first day of school

Tuesday was Adam's first day of preschool. He was a little apprehensive but once he got there, he had a great time. He loves taking his lunchbox and water bottle to school "just like Alex."

Push ups

Grace is getting very strong. She is able to push up and hold her head up for quite some time now. She is even rolling over from her tummy to her back. Way to go Gracie!

Bath time

Little girls smell so wonderful fresh from the bath! Gracie loves her bath. Hopefully that will continue.
