Pumpkin Patch



I took my youngest two "pumpkins" to the Pumpkin Patch with a group from church.  Chloe had school, but she'll be getting a pumpkin there at the end of the month.....which ended the disappointment of not coming with us ;)




April was quite thoughtful about which pumpkin to pick for herself and for Peter.  


After the wagon ride, picking pumpkins, and a corn maze, the kiddos get to sit on benches while listening to a talk on growing pumpkins and roasting the seeds.....April was actually paying attention during this because she talked about it on the way home!



The Giant Slide was remembered from last year .... April went down at least six times :) 


She also had no fear feeding these goats at the farm area!  She seemed to like the hand sanitizer just as much ;)


Can't hardly believe it's pumpkin-patch time already! These months are flying by!

Wedding!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Martin! :) We attended Natalie and Dallas' wedding on Saturday and had a lovely time. We know both the bride and groom from college....and just happen to be great friends with the bride's parents as well (Hi Bill and Doreen!). Here is the new couple - Natalie looked beautiful, and Dallas looked pretty good too ;) Here I am with the bride - check out her BLUE shoes! No wedding is complete without a little dancing and singing....particularly to Livin on a Prayer....Steve, Jeff, and Kevin sang at the top of their lungs and performed an air guitar solo: even the bride joined in: We had a great time! I'm thinking of the honeymooners.....kind of wishing I was on a tropical island somewhere too! :)

34 Weeks

34 weeks and my belly button has popped out :)  haha!  I'm still feeling a lot of movement and today my doctor said everything was great.  Here's some info on our "Baby Brother", as I refer to this little guy with Chloe and April: Your baby now weighs about 4 3/4 pounds ( about the size of a cantaloupe ) and is almost 18 inches long. His fat layers — which will help regulate his body temperature once he's born — are filling him out, making him rounder. His skin is also smoother than ever. His central nervous system is maturing and his lungs are continuing to mature as well. If you've been nervous about preterm labor , you'll be happy to know that babies born between 34 and 37 weeks who have no other health problems generally do fine. They may need a short stay in the neonatal nursery and may have a few short-term health issues, but in the long run, they usually do as well as full-term babies.
