Pumpkin Post

Saturday was a day I had been looking forward to for a long time - Jet's first trip to the pumpkin patch. Nothing says "it's fall!" like a field of pumpkins on a brisk October morning. I was so excited to take Jet to one of my favorite fall experiences. So after his lunch we bundled up (it was in the 40's!) and drove out to Berry Patch Farms. It was perfect because he got his nap on the way there and was happy as a lil' jack o' lantern when we got there. :)

Daddy can I drive?

This goat looks like it's yelling at me.

Silly Baby!

There's so much to see!

Crack me up!

My favorite grin.

ooh...i found a snack.

Can you get over this HAT!? lol.

Hi Daddy!

My boys.

It's so chilly!

Cutest little punkin' in the patch!

How will we choose one?

Playing with Mommy.

"Fall"-ing for this little boy.

Sleepy baby.

A look at our surroundings on our way home. :) Love the ghosts.

Downtown Woodstock is very charming. I want to go back when it's not so cold...

and Baby Jet is not so sleepy. Night Night BJ.

Just Jet

Why hello everyone.

Do you like my jeans?

Be honest...

Do they make my cheeks look chubby?

What about if I turn to the side like this?

Or maybe this side?

Hey - I can see outside!

Now what happened? How did I get here?

Mommy really - I'm not a bit sleepy.

zzzzzzz.....

The Baby in Black

Baby looks good in black. :)

Watch the progression of the sweetest grin ever! :)

Whoa! That was fun. :)

I got my eye on you.

So this is the face Jet makes when he is trying to run away from me. lol. He is so funny - it's like he truly thinks if I would just let him go he could take off! He snorts like a bull about to charge too. He makes himself quite the tough guy. Watch out!

Team Jet

A week ago David and I found out about a walk to raise awareness for Spina Bifida in our area! The 1.6mile "Walk n' Roll" as it was called was held yesterday Oct. 10th and it was great! We were so excited we made our own team (rather spur of the moment!) who joined us in our walk and helped us raise over 500$ for the SPAG! We are so blessed to have such great family and friends!

David made t-shirts at school that said J. Crew (for Jet's Crew). Cute huh? :)

Jet is read to go!

The orange shirts were made by the family who introduced Jet to Aubie. :) They said "Team Jet" and had a blue jet on them! Fabulous! And they made a little blue one for Jet too! Thanks Johnsons! We loved having everyone out there. What a good day.

Tubby Time!

So Mr. J LOVES his bath! LOVES IT! As night time falls and brings out his grumpy...he perks up when we put him in his bath. It's so cute!

He loves to splash.

And make funny faces.

Then look away from mommy like he's not doing anything.

And of course we love to suck the water out of the washcloth.

See that trademark pose again! lol

Now you may think I'm a strange mother, but Jet loves being in the sink. lol. It's true! I took his picture in it to prove it! I put him in it one day so I could run his tubby and he just sat wrapped up and quiet (at an otherwise fussy time). I was curious so the next time he was fussy before bath I did it again...not a peep. Then one evening he was cranky and not in the mood for ANYTHING. David wasn't home yet and I was trying to make dinner... so I put him in the downstairs bathroom sink near the kitchen. I know! I might be crazy but he can't get out and he's so happy there! He won't sit in his bouncy seat or swing or lay under his mobile for more than 5min at a time before he cries - but the sink...that's a whole different story. The sink is his happy place. haha. Well, I can count on 1 hand how many times he has really been in a sink...but I thought I'd capture it just to remember those funny times and my funny, funny baby.

Angelic.

Maybe if I open my EYES really wide it will enable me to open my MOUTH really wide! Now where have I seen this phenomena before?

This towel is almost as delicious as that washcloth!

Wow...my hand is so cool.

My nose itches.

Those lights are so pretty.

I wanna touch it.

I left to put my pj's on and the lights are still there!

Who's that baby in the mirror?

Who's that mommy?

Hey! That's my mommy!

So that baby must be...

ME!

(But he sure looks a lot like Uncle Nate. :) )
