Pumpkin Patch!

Today we headed to Faulkner's Pumpkin Patch, I think we waited too long in the season to go......it was slim pickins'!!
My Mom had the day off, so she and my Dad picked up Mason and then came by to get Delanie and me! Might I mention, the stomach bug has cycled through the family....Dad, my Mom, now my sister-in-law (who works with kids).....hopefully it will end!!
The kids had fun, Delanie had more fun picking up rocks than anything! Mason got to pick out a big pumpkin, it weighed 15 lbs!
Mason and I also got to ride the mini tractors....they were big...yes I did ride one!
Since the pumpkin patch was not all that we thought, after a quick lunch we headed to the playground at Legacy Park, it was so nice.....the kids had so much fun! What a beautiful day....can't believe it is almost November!
I'll post some Halloween pics this weekend!

Stomach Fun :)

The pic is of Delanie "helping" me do laundry.....she decided it would be fun to get in the basket! Silly girl!
Well it is official, we have had our first stomach bug/flu! I went to a Women's Retreat on Friday night and Saturday until around 2:30......Josh was painting at his Mom and Dad's and Grandma Di Di was keeping little D! When I picked her up we played for a while and she spit up, which is not uncommon for our little spit up girl! But.....it happened again in the car, then when we got home and each time it became more and more! Finally around 7:00 she threw up for the last time! I ended up holding her until around 9:30ish to make sure the worst had passed! Throw-up is not something I handle well, really who does?? Josh was the clean up man, I cleaned up D! Thankfully it was not that bad and she is on the mend! Delanie will be wearing her Halloween Costume to Gymboree class on Wednesday, so I will post some pics later this week!!!

Still new at this!

Here a few more pics from the party! Delanie with Nana, and Mason blowing out his candles!
Also, Delanie's pic corrected!

Weekend Fun!

On Saturday, my Mom and I took Delanie to have her pic taken in her Halloween Costume. I am posting a pic of the pic......are you with me? She did pretty well and looked of course as cute as a bug.....ha, ha!
That night was our nephew Mason's 5th birthday party! I cannot believe he is 5! He dressed up as Batman for the party! Delanie had fun watching him open his presents and wanted to play with his new toys! Mason's Mommy (Aunt Shelley) made a delicious chocolate pumpkin cake!! We loved it!

Funny side note; I certainly do not win a prize for the Mom of the year award....not that there is one! Friday night, we went to eat at Red Lobster with my parents. Delanie was great, she ate very well and sat in the high chair the whole time! We did notice as we were finishing up eating, Delanie went to the bathroom........you know! No big deal, I would take her to the bathroom on the way out the door! Oh my really does not describe it! Josh picked her up and I immediately knew we had a problem, since I could see poop up to her shoulders! It now on Josh, the boppy seat, and of course all over Delanie! No problem, in the car, I have an emergency tub with extra diapers and clothes.....except for the fact that we were in Josh's truck! So, my Mom and I took Delanie into the bathroom and got her as clean as we could! All of her clothes had to come off, so I put her jacket on (with nothing underneath) and took my jacket off to wrap around her legs!
What an experience.......note to self....have extra clothes in every car!!

Delanie's New Drawer!

This has been a pretty routine week around here! Tuesday we met some friends at the mall for some play time and then had a fun lunch! Yesterday, we had Gymboree Class in the morning and I subbed in the afternoon....... Delanie stayed with Grandma "Di Di!"
Today we have been home doing stuff around the house.....I know sounds like fun! Delanie loves to help me do things or should I say.....get into things! So, I cleaned out a drawer in the bathroom and now it is her drawer! It currently is holding a ball, some measuring cups, some lotion, a plastic spoon (not sure where this came from), and many other treasures! She loves it and now has something to "do" while Mommy is getting ready! The pic on the left is of Delanie turning on the water in our bath tub, she thinks it is pretty funny....I think it is pretty scary! Tuesday she threw her shoes in and yes they were soaked! What a fun day week we have had!
