My boys hard at work carving the pumpkin!





Burts Pumpkin Farm


We went to the pumpkin patch with some of Braxton's buddies from school, Brooks, Calloway Hunter, & Emily. All of the kids had a blast running around and sitting on the pumpkins.
the boys all played chase through the pumpkins, I think they do this a lot at
school because they seem to be pretty good at chasing Hunter!
We also took them on the hay ride which they all enjoyed and were very cute sitting in the back of the trailer by themselves!

Hudson is wondering what all these things are!

Handsome Hudson!!!




HERE I COME!!!!!!!!!

"Mom, take my picture!"
What a poser!!!

Braxton, Brooks, & Hunter chilling on a BIG pumpkin!!!

Painting Pumpkins


We had our first fall fun day with our friends, the Warners!
Jennifer Brooks & Calloway invited us over to paint pumpkins.
Needless to say we had a blast!!!

Braxtons's artwork on his pumpkin!

Can you see his artwork on his legs?!?!

Brooks & Braxton taking a much needed a break after some hard work painting their pumpkins, the playhouse, themselves, & most likely a few other things that we do not know of!

I am not sure if Brooks got more paint on the pumpkin
or on himself by the looks of this picture

I think Calloway followed in his big brothers footsteps in painting himself!

HAPPY PUMPKIN PAINTING!!!!

Catch Air!


How cute is this little man?!?!


We went to Catch Air for a play-date today with one of Braxton's friends from school. Hudson decided he wanted to participate as well so he had to ride on this airplane.

I am not sure what he's thinking here but he seems to be having a good time!
This little guy is so fun. He is the most laid back child I have ever been around. I thought Braxton was chill but Hudson has blown him out of the water. It's so much fun to have to have two boys and I love them both to pieces!!! Each of them bring me so much joy that I do not know how to even describe it, besides it's purely AWESOME!!!!

Thank you God for blessing me with happy, healthy, fun loving boys!!!

Carrots!!!!!


Today was a first for both Hudson & I.
He ate carrots which I made and this was
my first go at homemade baby food.

I am going to try to make all of Hudson's baby food.
We started this past weekend with bananas. He took really well to those & now
we are moving on to carrots, the first thing I have had to cook.

Looks as if they turned out pretty good!!!!
I boiled a bag of whole carrots then mashed them up & placed what you see in the bowl
and the rest in cute little storage containers. It was both different & fun!
Different: because I fed Braxton store bought food. Another reason it was different is worry factor of "did I do it right?" How hard could it be, well that's what I thought to until I began reading info on making baby food. I learned that carrots are filled with Nitrates that are harmful to infants. I learned that you must NOT use the water you cooked the carrots in that you must use clean water or formula to make them the right consistency to eat.
Fun: because it's something new for me and I am interested in making Hudson a diverse eater from the start! It's also much healthier & more cost efficient!


I am not sure what that face is....
It looks as if he may not like them but he ate the entire bowl
so I am pretty sure he likes carrots at least for now.

I am eager to learn more about making baby food and more so interested in feeding Hudson things you can't get from store bought food. I will keep you posted on how it's going and what's next on the little man's menu!!!!
