Cheerios

Note to self: never leave Matthew unattended while a box of Cheerios is within reach.

Finally updating!

It's been a while since I've updated the blog--I have been SO sick with this pregnancy and haven't felt up to much until recently. This time around couldn't be more different than my pregnancy with Matthew--he was super easy in comparison! I have been so nauseous and tired, and to top it off, I got mono and strep at around 7 or 8 weeks, so the nauseousness and tiredness were doubled, and I had migraines every day for about 3 weeks. MISERY! I have turned the corner now that I am 13 weeks pregnant and I am feeling SO much better. And Ross has been asking, "When are you going to update the blog?" So here goes!

Last weekend Buzzy and Mary came into town, and we went to Mitchell Farms Pumpkin Patch. The boys golfed a few times, and Mary and I shopped a little. All-in-all it was a really nice weekend of visiting. Here are some pics from our weekend:

 climbing on the wooden tractor at Mitchell Farms....ANYthing with a steering wheel is great fun!
 Driving with Daddy!
 Mitchell Farms was SO much more fun than last year...Matthew could actually enjoy it!
 Beep! Beep!
 Let's see how tall we are this year!
 Matthew really enjoyed the tire swing. Here he is with Papa and Grandma!
 Not really sure about this thing, but I'll give it a go!
 I like it, I think?

 Ok, this is FUN!

 Driving the play tractor near the sandhill.
 This was pretty cool: this was a "corn pool" for kids to play in. Matthew was unsure about this at first, but then he liked it.

 Matthew was helping his daddy pick out and carry (well, maybe not that last part) our pumpkins.
 Matthew picked out a nice white pumpkin.
 good one, Daddy!
 We had a green visitor in our backyard and snapped a few nice pictures before he decided to LUNGE at us.

Ahh, the life!
