pumpkins and America!

We had Jake pick some mini pumpkins and let him paint them.











The many faces of Jake, he has more facial expressions, these were just a couple I captured the other day.

The chipmunk



Jake really likes to talk about America right now. He wants us to tell him about going to the moon and we have to sing God Bless America and the Pledge of Allegiance at night time. Why these songs?? because he asked me to sing about America and this was all I could think of at the time!

Good friends

We went to Shreveport to visit my BFF Katie and her family at the end of Sept. We stayed for a week and for the most part had a really great time. I was very impressed with the kids and how well they did together. Taylor shared all her toys very well and baby Emma Kate was just perfect!

Unfortunately Jake got ear infections, Kurt had a sinus infection and I had strep throat! But we still had fun!

I miss my Katie so much, one week is not nearly long enough.

Here are a couple pics she did not have, but please check out her blog: http://ourcopacabana.com/ for more pics












We went to the pumpkin patch today, Jake loves it at this farm because they have a tractor you can climb on and a big playground!
