Happy Halloween!!

We had a spooktacular Halloween! Camryn went to school that morning, where she participated in a costume parade! She was held by her teacher, Ms. Cindy, to start, but eventually got down & walked. Mimi and I took her to Publix to trick or treat, which was phenomenal. Later on once daddy got home we went out trick or treating! Camryn was Minnie Mouse this year and Reed was supposed to be a dog, but I never put his costume on him because it was too big!

Happy Halloween!

Ready for school!

2 Months Old!!

Reed is 2 months old! Literally - where is the time going?! He is truly a blessing and we love our family of four! Reed has had a big month! He started sleeping through the night (thankful), smiling, cooing, and had some major growth spurts since his last check up!

Reed's 2 months stats:

15lbz 0oz - 97th percentile
24 3/4 inch long - 97th percentile
42 cent head circumference - 90th percentile

So he is 100% proportional, but he is a big ole boy and we wouldn't have him any other way! More to love on! :)

Reed's Dedication

Reed was dedicated this past Sunday at Cedarcrest Church. It is such a blessing to stand before our brothers and sisters in Christ pledging to raise Reed in a Christ centered home. Reed's name means Blessed and his bible verse is: The Lord is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation." Psalm 118:14

Family Weekend

Grandpa Craig, Grandma Heidi, Aunt Andrea, Uncle Jeff, and Grayson all came over this past weekend! Camryn had so much fun playing with everyone. We ventured out to Paulding County's trick or treat village. It was interesting, but everyone seemed to have a great time!!

All ready to go!

Reed, Camryn, & Grayon

Reed's sleeping, Camryn doesn't want her picture taken, and look at that sweet smile on Grayson!

Typical Weekend

Camryn is such a joy! She is extremely smart, super sassy, and loves to love! I can't believe my baby is going to be TWO in two months! The time is flying by!

Her new table pose, because she doesn't like to sit at the table for more than 5 minutes!

Yum!

When did she get big enough to watch TV like this?!

Styling!

Trying to be sneaky & sit in Reed's seat.

GROOVING!

Pumpkin Patch, Painting, & Carving

We have had an extremely busy October! I always forget how much I truly love the Fall. I absolutely love the color of the leaves and the fun activities that come with the seasons change. We went to Berry Patch Farm as a family to pick out a pumpkin. Camryn had a great time with Avery and loved repeating everything that Avery did. (nothing new)

Camera's Out - therefore Camryn makes this face!

More pumpkins!

Camryn absolutely ADORES her TOTY!

Camryn got her face painted!

I also wanted to start a new tradition with the kids, so I decided to let Camryn paint a pumpkin! This was a HUGE hit! I had to totally step outside my comfort zone to let her paint, because I am a neat freak! It was absolutely WORTH it! Camryn thought it was so cool and she talks about her painted pumpkin still!

Now it was time to carve our family pumpkin! I love carving pumpkins! I love the insides, the smell, & the challenge of getting the design right! This was Camryn's first time carving a pumpkin, so she wasn't too sure about it! I think she will LOVE it next year!

Checking out the insides

Smelling it!

Trying to help Mommy & Daddy scoop it, but she did not like the way the inside felt!

Washington

We all flew out to Washington this past weekend to visit family. It was a short trip, but it was full of memories! We are so thankful for this visit and our family that we love dearly!

The trees and scenery are amazing. This is AJ posing next to a cedar in my Uncle Jack's front yard!

We drove to the Pick-Quick for lunch. It was PACKED! Avery asked her mommy, "Where is the hole in the wall?!" Avery was full of hilarious quotes including, "Mommy, don't interrupt her! She is milking herself!" I LOVE that girl! The Pick Quick is where my dad would go after Friday night football games!
