Apple Picking

It was a perfect fall day--to go apple picking!!  We met some good friends of ours at Gull Meadow Farms for a morning full of fun activities.  The corn maze proved to be quite a challenge, and I think we made it to the end...we got out anyway!  The donut that was waiting on the other side was well worth it as are the naps that are being had while I post this.  Fall in Michigan is absolutely gorgeous!














It was

Baby T # 3 progress

We've been super busy, so I've think we've missed some monthly progress pictures, but here we go...
Three Months
 Four Months
 20 week ultrasound of baby...boy or girl?  Wait and see!



 All snuggled into our new house...month 7.
 Month 8

Caleb's New Room and Big Boy Bed!!

One of the first orders of business when moving into our new house was getting Caleb's new room ready with his big boy bed to make room for Baby T # 3!  

 This is the before...although the green was lovely, it didn't match Caleb or his new bedding, so it was time for a change!

 Here's Mommy getting into some action...at almost 8 months pregnant it was all I could do to paint the lower part and then get myself off the ground :)
 Painting's done...let the sun shine in!!

 Caleb in his big boy bed for the first time--they had a great time climbing in and out and jumping--until the top bunk got installed--there were a few bumped heads before they learned they couldn't jump on there anymore!

 Getting there...curtains and some wall hangings and it'll be all done!
 Caleb turning off his light for his first night's sleep in his big boy bed.  
 He only fussed a few minutes until I figured out he didn't have any of his 'lovies' in his new bed.  We went to the crib to retrieve them and he was happy to snuggle in.  The rule in our house is not to get out of bed until mommy or daddy come to get you.  We thought he would have a hard time with this, but there has not been one time that he has gotten out on his own.  Perhaps it's the blackout curtains that helps the room become pitch black or maybe he's just the best big boy ever!!
 One of Caleb's favorite books is now the "Oops Book".  I think it is Red Hat, Green Hat or something, but he has the best laughs when we read this book and over-exaggerate the "Oops".  There is no better sound than the belly laughter of my children.  These truly are the memories that last a life time!
