Trip to the Pumpking Patch

We went to the local Episcopal Church to get our pumpkins for the front porch. It was a fun trip and we got some great pictures of Audrey. Hope you enjoy our little pumpkin!

I'll take this one, Mommy!

Let me down, Daddy... there are pumpkins to pick!

Ok, I'll pose for a quick picture.


The cutest pumpkin in the patch

Mom, I can't believe you made me wear this hat!

"Coloring"

Our nanny Gillean has been planning new activities for Audrey. One of the new activities is "coloring" with food. Audrey would rather put her medium in her mouth than truly create art.

The Artist Getting her Paints Ready

The Artist Testing her Medium

The Artist Eating her Medium

Priceless Works of Art


They also tried creating artwork with crayons. Audrey is very consistent; she would rather eat the tools of the trade than use them. Thank goodness crayons are non-toxic!

"Hmm.. the blue one looks yummy.."

"Nope, the green one tastes better."

"Wait, they are for coloring, not eating?"


"Coloring is fun!"

We hope you enjoyed these pictures of our budding artist.

Penn State vs. Michigan

Ahhh... what a wonderful game! We finally beat Michigan after 9 years of losing to them. And not only did we beat them, we killed them. It was the largest margin of victory ever in the series. Wes went to Penn State for the big game and participated in his annual RV Weekend. So Audrey and I stayed in TX and watched the game at Pops and Nana's house. Here's Audrey trying on Pop's hat... maybe it's a little big!

Devoted Fans... Go State, Beat Michigan!

Happy Girl

Here are some recent pictures of Audrey.

As you can see, she is such a happy girl.

Latest Happenings

Life seems to have settled into a pretty good routine after the hurricane adventure. Audrey continues to grow and try new things everyday. She is getting more stable at sitting up on her own which makes trips to the grocery store and dinners out a little easier.

Playing with Daddy

She is also becoming Mommy's helper in the kitchen. She will sit in her highchair and watch me get dinner ready. We "talk" about what I'm making and she holds the spoon.

What a good sous chef!

Another new talent Audrey has developed is holding her own bottle. She is so independent.

We recently took Audrey to the park for the first time. She seemed to enjoy the swing. And we wanted to take her on the slide but it was wet and dirty. We'll try that another time.

Getting a push from Mommy!

Waving Bye-Bye to the park!
