Baptism/ Bday Party

After being home sick all week we let Ryder start watching cartoons. He loves them!
Happy Baptism day Goose! Time to go get out of that cute outfit and get dressed.
We made it to the church just in time.
After the church we asked a few people to come over to Big Papa's and have some food and some bday cake. We thought we would celebrate our first bday a few weeks early.
Ryder was a bit overwhelmed and did not dive into like expected so Scotty fed it to him.
Suddenly, he started the cry. The sad little, I'm overwhelmed cry. We quickly got over it and enjoyed the rest of the party.
Emerson, Gunner, Henry, Emma, and Jordan all came to play. Emerson really loved the pigs.
Thanks to everyone for coming and all the great gifts. And a big thanks to Big Papa and Michelle for the brunch.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!

Great Fall Weekend

After Trip's first birthday party, a quick nap and a big ole bottle we headed over to play with Gunner at the new house. Gunner was so sweet to share his things.
Ryder immediately jumped into the very nice bowl and brought some block with him to play with.
Gunner just looked at him like "are you crazy? That's my bowl!"
I think Gunner ended up being cool with it and let Ryder continue climbing in and out of the bowl.
After our visit with Gunner we headed for the park.
We LOVE the slide! We could do this all day...Down we go
and we go back up to the top
Still loving the swing. I giggle the whole time.
Ok...lets go walk around some before we leave.
PUMPKINS!!!!!!!!!!
How about this one?
no, this one!
Off to Aunt Carrie's for a little pumpkin carving, dinner and of course chalk drawing.
ok, maybe it is more fun to take the chalk out of the bucket and put it back in again..over and over again.
While Ryder was enjoying the yard and the chalk everyone else was carving their pumpkins.
Emma helped Michelle to get hers carved.
Then she discovered the bowl of the pumpkins guts and thought it would be more fun to stir the guts. YUCK!
Ryder's new favorite thing! Anything he can ride on! What a great weekend!

Weekends at home

Getting better everyday with this sippy cup thing.
We went to home depot and could not wait to get into the race car shopping cart. I love driving this thing!
My two favorite things, reading books and sitting in my infant tub with all my toys.
