Fall is upon us and we took our traditional trip to the Pumpkin Patch. We went with the Meachams, Alli and Phil, and The Bowles joined us later! We started with a trip to Cracker Barrel and then off to Old Baker Farm! We had a blast and poor little Garrett got FILTHY! It was hilarious. He had a blast though! Such a dirt kid, that boy. We spent all day enjoying eachother's company and finding the perfect pumpkins! (Although, the patch was a bit over picked this year as we went fairly late in the season!)
(This was hilarious! Hayden insisted on wearing the backpack around for about an hour, and then he said for us to put Garrett in it. Garrett thought it was the greatest moment of his life, and Hayden lasted about 2 minutes before he said "enough!" He then said "Ok, the backpack can be yours now, Mom!")
On to other updates... life has kept me away from the blog, unfortunately! I have to remind myself that the whole purpose of this blog is to have something to look back on years from now. I would rather have these random, scattered posts to look back on than nothing at all! Scattered and all over the place definitely defines our lives right now anyways! My new business, Monogram Font Store is going AWESOME!!! I also have another "huge" business idea in the works and I'm thrilled about it. Curtis has been travelling like nobody's business and my reward for not complaining comes in 2 weeks! A 5 night trip to ARUUUUUBA!!! I'm so anxious and excited and terrified about leaving the boys! But they will be in great hands and I am soooo looking forward to some uniterrupted time with the hubs.
The kids are great! Garrett is 11 months old and I can NOT believe that I am already planning his first birthday! He loves his big brother, has 8 full teeth and has completely adopted walking upright on 2 legs! He took his first step on October 9th and never looked back. It makes me really sad - I tried to persuade him to crawl a little longer since crawling babies are so cute, but he was ready to roll!! He is also playing around with the words "Mama, Dada, Bye-Bye (with a wave!), Hayden, Uh-Oh, Thank you, and Truck!" He has developed a pretty strong preference for trucks and things with wheels, just like Hayden did at the same age!
Hayden is fully entrenched in Kindergarten... reading, writing and everything in between. He is GIRL CRAZY!! Every day he talks about his chronicles to find a wife and it is hilarious. Curtis and I try to convince him that he has plenty of time to find a wife, and he should focus on other things, but he isn't listening! He also started taking karate and he loves it. It is adorable.
No pics to add to this randomness -- kids are demanding attention and I can't believe I have been able to sit at the computer THIS long! Pics on facebook, videos on youtube. I can always go back there and see :)
