October in pictures

Here is an October recap:

Someone went to the dentist and did AWESOME! Our hygienist is a friend of ours (and really great), and helped Anna feel comfortable.  I think Anna actually enjoyed it!!

 

 

We went to a pumpkin patch with some friends. It was a first for kiddos and me:

We cheered on our Razorbacks:

 

 

We collected Walnuts and Acorns from our yard:

 

 

We harvested our carrots:  



 

 

 We actually harvested some walnuts too.  I (Ashley) have not been particularly excited about the extra work involved in harvesting carrots and walnuts, but looking back at the pictures help me see that it really was neat and fun.  We made some great memories and the carrots were yummy to eat!

That was a glimpse of our October!

 

 







Caleb is 7 months!!

This baby boy is changing like crazy!! It seems like time is flying for me.

 

Here are some milestones:

Look Mom, one hand!

-He is pulling up and starting to cruise!

-Eating solid foods now! So far he has tried sweet potatoes, peas, carrots, and prunes.

-Starting to make sounds. "Ba ba ba" is the most common. 

-No more spit up ( for the most part). This has been huge for us!!

-Sleeping ALOT better :) I'm still doing a late night feeding around 9 or 10 pm and he will sleep until 5 or 6 am.
-Takes 3 naps a day still.  The first and last nap are only 45 minutes, his second nap is 1.5 hours. 

-He is also able to climb up the step from our family room into the kitchen. It's so sweet when he comes in the kitchen looking for me or Anna!!
-He likes to suck his thumb!!

Josh and I are constantly saying how sweet and HAPPY Caleb is. He only cries when he is tired or hungry. Seriously, he is so fun. This week, Caleb went to nursery at church and the lady who kept him said "thank you so much for bringing him in!" I thought that was so sweet. It's so awesome how babies bring joy to others and bless people just with their presence.

Does this tongue sticking out remind you of Anna??

I mean, the overalls are KILLING me!!

 

That's Caleb at 7 months!!
