Catching Up!

We are back in action on the blog today. We have had a busy month but trying to get slowed back down and back into routine. We have been on vacation or at home for the last ten days. And I think I packed the ten days before we left. Bo got to spend a week with all the grandparents while Buddy and I were in Gulf Shores for a week. It was nice to  be able to do things for a few days without worrying about a schedule. Sleeping when you want to sleep is awesome. I don't think I stayed up past 9 pm the entire week we were gone. It was great to see Bo though for sure. I couldn't really tell if he was glad to see us or not. I don't know if I would be either if I had all the fun they did this past week.

He made some progression this past week on his mobility. He has been playing around with the idea of getting on his knees and trying to crawl. Last night when we got home he was sitting up and then all of a sudden he was on his belly then back to his bottom. I know one day all fear is going to be lost and he is going to be going full force. He has almost mastered the sippy cup too. He is just not sure about holding it up by himself but he is getting there. I think he might be getting another tooth, I thought I felt something sharp up there last night.

I hope he gets back into his routine at school today and enjoys time with his peeps. I think he was ready to see them all this morning. He is now the oldest in his class so it won't be long until he heads over to the next room with the crawlers.

Today was better than I was expecting with having to get up and do a million things. We were only a few minutes behind but we made it right on time. It was a chilly 41 degrees here this morning so we had to break out the fall clothes. I hope everyone has a great week.

Hello Fall...Great to see you!

What a great change of pace with the weather. We have been enjoying every second of it since it cooled off. We have had a great long weekend. We kicked the weekend off taking Bo to the fair to check things out. He always has fun just being out and about but the animals didn't really get him excited like we thought. He got his first taste of a funnel cake and absolutely love it.



Saturday we watched the Hogs take home thier first of many wins of the season. Buddy did some fishing on Saturday and Bo and I stolled and played outside most of the day.

Game Time

Our good friends Ladon and Jimmy came over to visit for a bit and we had our first fire of the season. This morning we slept in until 7:30 for most people that is equivalent to like noon. We walked down and got some breakfast and then continued on our walk to get a few groceries for today.


Fall time is finally here

We are celebrating the Labor Day as most will with some BBQ, potato salad and baked beans. Whoever came up with these traditions for summer holidays, THANK YOU! I wouldn't trade these kind of weekends for anything. I am so thankful for our little family, great friends and them memories that come from both.

We spotted another Bo tooth this weekend and so that explains some of the fussiness well more like neediness that last couple of days. He is starting to do some spinning and scooting as a way to get where he wants to be. It seems like he might have just went through a growth spurt in the past week. His clothes that he has been wearing all summer are suddenly a litte snug on his baby belly.

We hope everyone has a wonderful Labor Day.

We love long weekends....

It has been a busy week around our house. Buddy and Bo held down the fort while I was gone most of the week. Last night we went down to the square for First Thursday. Sarah was playing and we always love to support her when we can. The weather was great for a night out on the town. We are looking forward to the fair tonight, I am anxious to see what Bo thinks of all the animals. And who can forget that tomorrow is the season opener for the Razorbacks. Bo was geared up this morning to call those Hogs at school! I am not sure what we will do with our Sunday and Monday yet but I bet we will figure something out. Hope everyone has a safe and fun holiday weekend.

Woo Pig Sooie!
