Cows n' Corn

Had to get out of the house on Monday so we went to a pumpkin patch called Cows n' Corn. They had lots of fun stuff for the kids and a fun corn maze. It was a working dairy farm so they brought out a dairy cow and told the kids all about the cow.

Here we go

This is the actual maze we did

Random Activites

Two weeks ago the kids got sick, then as the weekend approached mom got sick. Some yucky virus. Here are some activities Evey did to keep from going stir crazy.

James took Laney and Evey to Chick-fil-a for lunch
Funny faces
I needed a refill on Tylenol so we headed to Target. James and Evey went down the costume aisle.


Austin 10 Months

Austin, you are such a big boy this month. We finished nursing this month. I was sad but it was the best thing for both of us. I do love when I give you a bottle you just rest your head on my shoulder and look up at me. I love that you love to snuggle. You have really started showing affection to your blankets. Looks like your lovie will be your blankets just like sissy. I am so glad that you ditched your passie and thumbs months ago so we don't have to deal with all that.

Hello motor skills. You have really been gaining control of gross and fine motor skills. You follow me around the house and pull up on everything. You learned to clap and shake your head no. You have started to cruise around the furniture. You love to play 'near' Evey and just being where ever she is, but you also enjoy playing by yourself for a little bit at a time. I love your easy going personality. You are the happiest, sweetest thing ever. We love you.
What are you guys doing out there?

County Fair

Couple of weeks ago, we went to the County Fair benefiting the Youth for Tomorrow. We had a really good time. We had a rough time getting started...Evey would not go on any of the bounce houses (there were like 20 to 30 different ones). We came to one that wasn't very busy so I carried her in and bounced with her and she was hooked.

So there was a giant shark slide, it was actually hard work climbing the steps, of course I am out of shape. So I had to go first and show Evey is was okay. Once she saw me come down, she was all in. It was really fun.

Cars theme slide she did all by herself.


There were a couple of monster trucks there


Gymnastics

On Tuesdays, we go to gymnastics. Miss Evey loves it.It is not at a fancy gym so there is no real viewing area. So all the mommies and siblings take turns looking through the door window. That's why the pictures are terrible.






Product Review: Light Switch Extenders


We got a couple of these for Evey. She loves them. I like that you don't have to "install" them, they just slip on the switch. Very cool product.
