Pumpkin Patch

Monday after school I took the kids to a local pumpkin patch!  It was supposed to be the coolest day of the week so I wanted to take advantage!
Kenzie also surprised me by coming home with another missing tooth!















Bunco and Tracy Lawrence

Last week on Thursday we had our monthly bunco!  It was witch themed and we all wore hats!  I also made a new shirt to wear.


Rylee and Paislee came over to play after school on Friday!  Rylee tried and tried to pull Kenzie's loose tooth, but it wasn't budging!
They were cracking me up with all their giggling.
I took the kids to dinner and ice cream and we stopped off at the park on the way home!
Kenzie tried some more to pull her tooth when we got home!  We tied it to her nerf bow and arrow and a nerf gun.
It still wouldn't come out! Saturday night a bunch of us went to see Tracy Lawrence in concert at Southern Junction!  It was so much fun.



Sunday we laid low recovering from the night before!  Our friends got a new puppy and we stopped by to see her!  ADORABLE!
We have still been walking in the mornings!  We got some head lamps to wear so cars can see us!  They go really fast in the mornings and make us nervous!
Safety first!

Landon is 7 months

My sweet boy did not get the memo that he is not supposed to get bigger!  If I could just bottle him up right now and keep him this age forever I would!  He is the absolute sweetest, most easy going baby ever!
He went through a sleep regression this past week!  I'm thinking he has a tooth trying to sneak in and that's why.  His bedtime is around 7:45/8:00.  He is so easy to put to bed!  We lay him down and he rolls over and snuggles his blanket and goes to sleep!  Normally he will sleep until around 9 the next morning.  The past week he has woken up around 2-3 times crying!  I will go in and give him his paci and roll him over!  A few times he wouldn't settle down and I ended up having to give him a bottle (that he guzzled down--so maybe a growth spurt)
Naps are still kind of just whenever he gets a chance!  If we are home for the day he will take a morning short nap around 10'ish and then a long nap after lunch around 1.  In the evenings he gets a little fussy around 5:30 and will take a short cat nap, which works out perfect so I can get dinner ready!  The boy LOVES to eat!  He eats anything and everything that is in front of him!  His bottles are between 6-8 ounces just depending on the time of day and he eats 2 jars of baby food a day!  He prefers to eat whatever we are eating!  Pizza crust, rice, refried beans, spaghetti, mashed potatoes and tortillas are some of his favorites.
Bubs is still pretty lazy and doesn't want to roll or crawl yet.  He is content sitting with all his toys around him!  I make sure he gets plenty of tummy time though!  He tolerates it and will look around play with toys but has no interest in rolling or crawling!  I will help him and give him little pushes to his side and sometimes he will flip over and just laugh!
He wins the happiest baby award hands down!  He is always smiling and laughing and so easy going!  If he is fussy there is almost always a reason why!  Sleepy or hungry is normally the culprit!  When someone talks to him he has started tilting his head and kind of ducking it like he gets shy and it's the cutest thing ever!  He also has started babbling ALOT!  He is almost always yelling and squealing about something!  He makes a sound that sounds like a little bird cawing!  We love him so so much!!

Happy birthday Scotty

Tuesday was Scotty's birthday!  We had muffins for breakfast and sang happy birthday before he had to go to work!

Later that night we met up with my mom and dad, Heidi and Rob, Amber and Jacob, Autumn and Chris and all our kids!  We had 18 people and it was so fun!!  Bubba looked so cute in his first pair of jeans and real shoes!






Family band night

The girls have been begging to put on a concert since they got their guitars!  We got out some instruments and had a family band night.
We took turns playing all the instruments and had the best time!


Amber's baby shower

This weekend was Ambers baby shower.  I had been working hard on paper flowers and banner and it all looked so cute put together!





It was so fun celebrating Amber and baby Paislee and we can't wait to meet her!
