Searching for the right Pumpkin
















Whats Halloween without a pumpkin patch. I love love love pumpkins. I'm not quite sure why I love them so much. Almost all of my Halloween decor is pumpkins. I thoroughly enjoy walking around a pumpkin patch searching for the perfect pumpkin. This year we went to a patch in Lake Shore and they had the best pumpkins ever. They were the prettiest color of orange and ranged from all shapes and sizes. It was the perfect fall weather for pumpkin hunting.

I LOVE being a Witch


Instead of playing Bunco this month we decided to have a Witches party. It was fun seeing everyones attire. I really do have great friends!

Baby is ONE!

This is what I looked like many times a day
His Cake that he never ate

He was still happy even though he was sick

He loved this card, it plays music when you open it

He got this outfit a week later from Steph. He thought he looked so cute. I love him!

I know every mom says it, but how did this year go by soooo fast. My baby is 1 and it kindof makes me sad. He has been such a blessing in my life. He brings me so much happiness and joy pure and utter joy. He is so happy all the time and has each member of our family smitten. He is sweet as can be.

My poor little guy has had a run with sickness. First he had hand mouth and foot. None of my kids have ever had this and man it is a bad one. He had all these sores in his mouth that made eating and drinking so painful. He had a fever of 102 and was throwing up and had diarrhea. After that was over he got little blisters on his fingers. This lasted 10 days. We were healthy for less than a week and then the stomach flu hit. He literally threw up and had diarrhea for 8 days. I have never seen anyone be so sick. It was starting to scare me. I was so afraid he was going to die. My Dr. told me that the only reason he was not in the hospital was because I was still breastfeeding. Breast milk is easier to absorb and digest. He lost 2 lbs. He was even sick on his birfday and didn't get to eat any cake. Sad.

Finally he is better and is eating everything in sight. This boy can eat. He can eat a whole bowl of oatmeal and entire PB&J sandwich. He can out eat Savanna and MaKaya. If I am not careful he will stuff the entire sandwich in his mouth. When he sees food and wants to eat he says mmmm mmmm mmmm. He does this all the time. He always wants to eat. Maybe he is making up for lost time. He crawls all over the place and plays so good with his toys. He loves his blankie. He loves to sit and ride on his dads riding lawn mowers. Big tears are shed when he has to get off. I never knew how much I would love having a little boy. He is so fantastic it really makes me want to have another one. Help me please!!!
He is 60% in weight
He is off the charts for height
He is off the charts for head
