Fall Fun

These last few months have flown by, Cameron is 10 weeks already! The scattering of good weather has given us a few days to enjoy 'family activities' ...the ones we missed this summer with the multiple sidling events


Aaron's getting organized with our new school nook!





Aaron loved his monster truck cake!



Aaron's birthday was a lot of fun. The day before we were asking him who he would invite to his birthday? He gave us 3 names and of course his brother! Bill and i had already planned it to be a surprise, but were releaved when he gave us the 3 names of his buddies that had aready been invited! Off the cusp of a week of flu.....side note.....i was talking on the phone and said that the 'flu bug' had been thru our house, when i got off the phone aaron asked me if the 'flu bug' was "like a fly with virus or somethin?".......we were excited to get out and that our surprise came together! i went to pick up all aarons friends and then came back to the house to get aaron. We took the kids cosmic bowling with their glow neckalces!

It has been a tradition to go to the pumpkin patch on aaron's birthday for the last 6 years....we went, but the weather was terrible! We got our pumpkins, a few pictures before the rain set in and headed for pizza. Aaron got Rocket Balloons from Nana and Mike, they were a hit!

Waterfalls :(

Last night Bill and I were sitting on  the couch when we heard what sounded like a wretch...as we made our way up the stairs our fears were confirmed! Aaron had puked while sleeping. It was projectile hitting the wall and cascading down, much like a waterfall all over Eric's brand new (by new i mean i second night on the bed...i finished it 'enough' for my excited defiant little one to use it for the first time) john deere blanket, missing eric's face by inches. Thank the Lord Bill was home and we were able to work together to clean up a HUGOmungus mess. We had to bathe aaron, move both boys to our room while we disassembled the bunk bed...yes every mattress, box springs hidden below and support to clean the 3D effect the puke waterfall gave.....GROSS

Cameron's Newborn Pictures

I would love to say that the boys cooperated for all pictures, but that would have made things easy! Rough start but Heidi did an amazing job despite our difficult children!

Hope you enjoyed!

Our dear friend Heidi Fitzgerald took these pictures, I am so thankful for her friendship and willingness to share her talent! You're the best Miss Heidi!

Aaron's first day of school!

First day of School

Bill and i just dropped Aaron off at his first day of Kindergarten! he was so nervous, stealing a last minute hug from dad. Not sure how the afternoon school is going to work with the family dynamics, but trusting the Lord's provision that it is best. Thankful for the sunshine and a sleeping baby, im off for a nap!
