Pumpkin Patch

One of our favorite fall activities is a trip to the Pumpkin Patch. It is SO much fun, and you get the CUTEST pictures! Being that my babies were both born in January, they are the same age when they experience a lot of their "firsts." They were both nine months when they had their first visit to the pumpkin patch! When I got home yesterday, I realized that I had gotten some of the same shots, and I thought that it was just so cute!

Here is Addie in the pot:
And Jett (or Bubby as we have been calling him):

Isn't that so fun?!? Here are some more pictures. We went with my parents and my sister and had a BLAST! Mom packed a picnic and we ate in the back of Dad's pick-up. Such fun memories...

Addie was so proud of this pumpkin, Daddy was inspecting it telling her it was the "most beautiful pumpkin he had ever seen!"

My boys!

My pumpkins on some pumpkins!

The whole crew!

What a fun day!

October Pictures!

Western Day at Addie's school!

Her cute little class

Jett seemed really excited about Western Day

Addie brushing a goat, she liked the goats, but was scared to death of the ponies!

Yee haw!

Sweet little cowgirl

Random pictures...

He has found the cabinet. I left the child lock off of this one for Addie to play in when she was a baby, and now he has discovered it!

We had a rainy day this week where I told Addie she could wear dress-up ALL DAY!!! And, we did some baking!

Cuddle time

A new favorite in the house, dominoes!

Ha, I love it when he gets a hold of her girly things!

Yard work...

His first bruise :(

Jett and his little buddy Cade, they are so cute!

Decorating fall cookies with Gigi!

Where he spends most of his time, EATING!

My last post was all about Addie, so this one is just a little update on my sweet boy. He turned 8 months old on Saturday! I can't believe it. He is just the sweetest little cuddle bug that you have ever seen, and I just love every minute of it! He is officially not eating baby food anymore. By the spitting that I got when I put it in his mouth, and the screaming and lunging for our food, I got the hint that he was ready to feed himself, and boy was he! He LOVES meal time, and so far we haven't found anything that he doesn't like. He may even make a really sour face, but it doesn't stop him! He has become such a climber, finding ways to get up on just about anything. And, he actually took 2 steps this week. He has done that three times this week. I said to a friend that I thought it was probably a fluke, and she reminded me that we thought the same thing about Addie right before she started walking. So, we'll see what comes of this! I am crazy about this kid! Here are some fun pics from this month:

In his big boy clothes!

LOVES bathtime with sissy!

checking his email

Being the mother of a girl and the mother of a boy is SO different! Just when I want to stop the rough housing because I think Jett is going to get hurt, he is CRACKING UP laughing, so I let it go on. It won't be long before he'll clock Addie if he doesn't like it, so I guess I'll let him stick up for himself!

PRESCHOOL!

In the blink of an eye, my baby girl went from this...to this...
Her first day of PRESCHOOL!

So excited on the way, she squealed all the way there!

Daddy walking her into school

Her teachers that are SO precious! She is already hugging all over them when she sees them, that makes Mommy feel SO GOOD!
Jumped right in, I had to go in and get her so I could take pictures!

This was on "Meet the Teacher Day." It is their indoor playground!

She is in the "Bees" Class

What a great first day! She loved it! Her teachers said that she was great! We are looking forward to a many fun times this year!

Our August

What an fun month! I can't believe that summer is practically over! The kids are growing and changing so much! My little Addie is about to start preschool! I am so excited about that, she has her backpack, lunchbox, and nap mat all ready to go! She can't wait! She is such a talker and has quite an entertaining personality! So much drama...never a dull moment in the Crawford house! Jett is growing so big. He started clapping his hands this week. He is such a happy baby! But, boy, is he a busy little thing! He is always into something and has discovered how fun it is to climb! He is going to keep me busy! Here are some fun pictures of our August...Addie is starting to like hanging around him more and more...
He loves to be in a "fort"
And she loves to dress him up...he is sporting the wedding veil here

We have started having "Family Worship Time" at night before bed. Adam gets out the guitar, and we sing worship songs. Then, he reads some out of the "Jesus Storybook Bible." Such a sweet time, love to watch Addie dance and spin while we sing, her own little form of worship.

The sweet sight I get to see every morning
His first bruise on his forehead! Sad...I am sure there are many more to come. Check out all of the food on his face, come on mom...
My little princess, always dressed up (or naked, take your pick!)
She was "getting married"

Love, love, love!
Big boy! Look at those sweet little legs!

So thankful for everyday...

SIX MONTHS OLD!

I can't believe that this little man has been in our family for half a year already!!! I took him for his 6 months well check yesterday, and I am so thankful that he is a healthy, growing boy! He is 17 lbs 8 ozs, exactly what Addie was at her 6 month visit. And he is 27 1/2 inches long. This is one inch longer than his big sister was. He is in the 50th percentile for weight, and 75th for length, and his head is down into the 75th percentile, out of the 95th!!! His body is catching up with his big ole noggin! He is such a joy, and I can tell that I am going to have my hands full with this one! He is crawling all over the place and even pulling up on furniture! This morning, I found him standing in his crib! Dr. Terk told me that he had a feeling that this one was going to "rock my world!" I love watching the new discoveries that each day brings! I love you Jett Daniel!

I mean, really???
