Making it tradition, we went to the pumpkin patch again this year (although a different one from last year). This year, AJ had a "fun barn" to play in which he LOVED!

This was the best we could do to get AJ and Heidi together in the barn. This is pretty typical, Heidi with the cheesy smile, and AJ not willing to sit still for 1 second!

Ah, donuts and cider. AJ's helping himself to Heidi's.

"I FOUND IT! THE GREAT PUMPKIN!"

Also new this year - a hayride!

A little comparison with last year. I CANNOT believe how BIG my little boy is now! Last year Dad had to be in it to help AJ stand, this year Dad had to be in it to make
sure AJ was in it (again, the 1 second rule).

So, my 10 year high school reunion was a couple weeks ago. My girlfriends (who are still some of my best friends) and I decided to make it a girls night out since our lovely class decided to have it at a bar downtown (at least it was in the nice Arena Distrist and we did have a private party room). Below from left to right is Gabby, Megan, Denise, Jessie, Amanda, Natalie, AJ and me. If you notice in the above picture, Megan is missing because she had to leave early to tend to her little one. Ah, life with kids, but would we have it any other way?! Love you girls!

Here are just some random pictures I've taken recently. Why does every kid LOVE to help clean, and how do I bottle this for when he's a teenager? The vacuum was actually running.

I know, GROSS, but I had to take this because AJ was laughing at me and doing it on purpose when I trying to get him to stop and telling him it was yucky. Oh well!

This has become a new favorite activity for AJ. Not just reading, but reading at the table. I am amazed at how long he will look at a book. He will go through each page and tell you all about it (not that I can understand a word of it).

First trip to Chuck E. Cheese's.
