In other news...

 It has been a little bit of madness at my house recently. Thus, why I have not posted anything and even this will be short and sweet.

 So here are the few pics I took during Halloween. These were our pumpkins this year. I thought they turned out cool.

Addie was a princess and she LOVED IT! You can probably tell from the video how elated she was about this.

I forgot to take pictures of Barrett, apparently because I am a awful mother : / Actually, I was planning on taking my picture Halloween night (Trunk or Treat day was crazy) but he ended up getting shots and was MISERABLE on Halloween so I stayed home to take care of him while Jer took Addie out (Jer tells me she charmed everyone.) Oh, and in case you were wondering, Barrett went as a football and Jer was a football player.

So to hold you over (like you were waiting around just to see pictures of my little guy) Here he is completely passed out and adorable.

Ochard Fun

Hey everyone! Just a quick update. We had Barrett's blessing this past Sunday. It was wonderful. I love new babies - mine in particular ;)

My parents came up for the weekend and we went to a local orchard to pick apples. It was way fun. 

Here are some pictures from our little adventure.

We are inside the store portion of the orchard here. They sell some kick butt apple cider there, apple donuts, boiled peanuts, and bbq, - oh ya - and some pre-picked apples.

 

We took some family photos really quick. 

There was also rides on a hay wagon pulled by some beautiful Belgians. We got there a little late so we missed it unfortunately, but we got to pet the horses before we left.

The next day was the blessing and we had a little luncheon, which I didn't take any pictures of, but here are a couple outside the church. (My heels were sinking in the ground so excuse the weird stance :)

We wore poor mom out. 

A ton of pics w/ few words

I have a couple minutes so I thought I would do a mini update along the lines of the title of this post.

Let's see well my family came to visit like 3 weeks before my due date so here are a couple photos from that.

Did I mention that even though Barrett was 8lbs 12 oz I was still pretty small? The doctor as well as the nurses were really shocked he was as big as he was.



















Yes they are under a waterfall that we are standing in front of up top :D

Several days before I had Barrett I decided I needed to cut Addie's hair.

The Before Shots:

This was the first time I have taken off more than an inch. It was getting so unruly and I am really happy with how it turned out. I was thinking maybe taking off a couple more inches a little later. But for now, here are the After shots!

Now just some cute pictures of my adorable children!






















Barrett makes the best faces. I happened to capture them every once in a while on camera.
