Visit to Pigeon Roost Farm

We had a really great time with our Sunday School class last Saturday during our visit to Pigeon Roost Farm. This is a place where a kid can be a kid and even adults can be kids as you can tell from some of these pictures. Our friend Shelli captured some great shots too. Can anyone guess who Mr. Pumpkin Head is???

Fun with Friends

We had the opportunity to share in celebrating our friend's son, Jack's, birthday a couple of weeks ago. We had a great time. Emily most enjoyed birthday cake time.


Emily and I have enjoyed having our friends, Patty and Kara over a couple of times this Summer.
FROM BABIES...
...TO TODDLERS







WHERE DOES THE TIME GO?

26 months old - Oct. 16

I must say girls are so much fun to have around. Emily is becoming quite the communicator and it makes me laugh out loud sometimes at the things she says. She has a tendency as with most toddlers to get easily frustrated when something doesn't work for her immediately or even after two or three tries. I usually say what I fondly remember my Mother saying when I was little which was "it does no good to get frustrated". The other day after her third attempt to get one of her toys working she said "I fustrated". The other funny thing for the month was during one of our visits to Kroger. We were walking around the store and suddenly we heard a voice over the intercom. After the voice completed the sentence, Emily tilted her head back in the direction of the voice and said "yea" as if to answer. What a hoot!

Picture Update

Randa and the boys and my Aunt Clara and Aunt Neva were able to come for a visit at the end of September. We really enjoyed spending time with them.






Emily has somewhat sensitive ears and on the drive home from Mommaw and Poppaw's house we passed a firetruck and I heard her saying in the back seat "it's too loud". She proceeded to put the car pillow around her ears. I was able to stop long enough at a light to take a picture.



Emily and I had the opportunity to take care of our friend's little boy, Ryan, a couple of weeks ago. It was a lot of fun and very interesting to see Emily's reaction to having another baby around the house. I thought she would be somewhat jealous, but on the contrary, she was very excited to have Ryan around. Every morning when she woke up she would ask where Ryan was. She was quite the little helper.
