My Favorite Time of Year

I haven't posted in awhile, so here are some pictures of fall fun. David made a fire to burn some tree limbs and leaves. Noah and his cousins had a blast. We roasted marshmallows and made smores. As you can see from the picture Colby was not giving his Smore (even if Uncle David was pouring leaves on top of him).

Helping Uncle David get the fire going.

Noah enjoying his first Smore. He wasn't too sure of what to do with it. He kept saying,"Help Mommy." He was so funny.

Jumping in the leaves Uncle David was raking for the fire.

Notice Colby and his Smore.

See the leaf on Noah's back? It is glued to his shirt with marshmallows.

I did not post after Eden's last doctor's appointment. She is doing well, and is now over 15 pounds. She has such a wonderful personality. She is now laughing. I love to see her expressions when Noah walks by and starts to talk to her. She loves her big brother. Today Crystal was telling Noah that she was going to take Eden to her house. Noah was getting a bit upset and said, "No, I take Sisser my house." Eden is now eating oatmeal peas and prunes. I can see differences between her and Noah all the time. Eden eats her dinner (oatmeal plus prunes or peas) and then I have to nurse her before I go to bed (around 10:30 or 11:00). She still wakes up during the night to eat again. Noah would eat his dinner, and he wouldn't eat again until 3 or 4 in the morning. Needless to say, she is precious, and I praise God for my two wonderful children.

A little Late

Noah loved the water and riding on the boat.


Sister even got to join in on the fun.

Noah chillin' in the back with the ladies.

We had a great trip on Labor Day weekend. We went to a lake in Alabama with some friends from church. The trip up there on Thursday night was my worst nightmare. It took us an hour to get from Newnan to Carrollton. For those of you that don't know we live 15 minutes from Carrollton. We left the house around 7, and had to stop to feed Eden in Whitesburg (5 minutes from the house). Then, we got to Carrollton and stopped to get something to eat. David decided it was a good idea to eat in the car. So, after waiting 30 minutes for our food at McDonald's, we hit the road again. Then, we had to stop and feed Eden again somewhere near Bremen. After crying off and on for about two hours, Eden finally decided to fall asleep. Then, Noah started telling me that his belly hurt. Almost an hour later he vomitted in the car. We pulled over again to clean all that up. Needless to say, our two hour trip turned into almost a four hour trip. The ride home was much better. Both the kids slept almost the whole way. We made no stops and arrived home in less than two hours. I take that back. We did make one stop to re-read this church sign.

An Update

I took Little Miss to the doctor on Friday for her two month checkup. She was 12 lbs. 4.5 oz. Once again the doctor was surprised at how she is growing. It is amazing to me how she has gone from the 7th percentile on ultrasound to 90th percentile on her weight. Her length was in the 75th percentile. She is eating constantly and has started cooing real well. She turns her head when she hears my voice, and smiles when she sees me. It is the most wonderful feeling. Here is a picture of my little porker.

On the other hand.... When are children suppose to have their first dental visit?

One month visit

I took Eden to the doctor today for her one month check up. She is growing like a weed. She has grown so much that her doctor said I must have industrial strength milk. Eden was 6lbs. 5oz. when we left the hospital. Imagine my surprise this morning when I put her on the scale and it read 9 lbs. 15 oz.! That is one ounce from 10lbs. Yes she has gained over 3 1/2 pounds. I will try to post new pictures soon.

We took our first family outting as a family of four. We went to the see the "animals" at Pine Mountion Animal Safari. Noah had a blast until the "cows" kept putting their heads in our window. Not to mention he did not have a nap and was extremely tired. When we got home, he and David were out in the yard catching frogs. He loves "woggies."
Eden slept the whole trip except for the times she decided she was hungry. She is also beginning to lift her head. I put her on her stomach for naps because she seems to sleep better that way. When lying on her stomach, she has started lifting and turning her head. She is really beginning to fill out. I can't wait to find out how much she weighs.
When you look at the pictures they are in order from last to first. Sorry for the confusion.

Playing with the woggie

Naoh trying to feed the animals. Everytime he threw the food it would hit the roof of the car and bounce back in.

Our ride through the park. It was disgusting, but better than our car getting slobbered on.
