Pumpkin Patch

Here are some pics from our trip to the pumpkin patch. Jonas loved every second of it! We are also excited to find out that this place sells Christmas trees. We will definitely be coming back!

Grabbing the Toes

I cannot believe Tinzley is grabbing her feet already. Jonas did not do this until 6 months!

I finally got some pics of her grabbing em!

(It is usually at diaper changing time and that is not the most convenient time to take pics)

Also, playing catch up a little bit...

Jonas has been having accidents like crazy which is driving me crazy :(, Tinzley is the happiest baby I think I have ever seen, I am trying to work out everyday to keep myself sane (it really seems to help my mood a ton), and I am really trying to stay busy with all of my ways to make money.

We are excited for my mom coming and our trip to Arizona that happens in three weeks!

Cuttin and Pastin

Jonas is in love with his scissors. Tonight he got the crazy idea he wanted to cut something. Tom kept trying to focus his energy on something else but it just was not happening. Finally Tom said why don't you get with Mom she is more crafty. Well, I put my teacher tools to work. I went online and found some halloween/pumpkin activities to print out. (Have I mentioned the boy LOVES pumpkins?)So I printed out a coloring page, a handwriting page, a pumpkin windsock, and a jack o lantern cut and paste. (Yes, I know, I am that cool) :)

So here are some pics of our cutting and pasting time. I will admit there was a little help in the cutting department but for not even being three yet he did pretty well. Who knew cutting was such hard work.

Jonas with his windsock, that he tried to put on his foot. I said it was a sock right? :)

Gluing all by himself. (Notice the mouth on the pumpkin)

Putting on the finishing touches

Finished Product. So proud.

(Now see where the mouth is, he had to fix it. OCD child here we come)

Trying

I am really trying to get Tinzley to hold her own bottle. She has started grabbing for everything that gets put in front of her face. It is so cute.

Today at story time I looked down at her and she had her foot. Jonas did not do that until 6 months. I cannot believe this kid!

Yummy Breakfast and Cute Outfit

I found a new recipe on a blog I follow this morning. I had all of the ingredients so I thought I would try it out. It was called Mini Maple Chocolate Chip Pancake Muffins. (sounds good right)So I made them for Jonas and myself. Here are some pics of us enjoying them. The best part was when Tom came home and tried one and said "They kind of taste like pancakes?" Perfect!

I do not know if I have mentioned this about Tinzley. She has started eating food, sorry no pics yet because I am usually the one feeding her and I am usually by myself while doing it. Also, she is not the best eater yet so it is just enough to get her fed than trying to get pictures while doing it. She has eaten carrots, bananas, sweet potatoes, and applesauce. Applesauce is definitely the favorite so far. I have been mixing it with rice cereal, which she hated by itself. I really don't blame her. It smells terrible.

This was her outfit from Sunday. I thought it was so cute. I am pretty sure it is from my Aunt Christy. Thanks so much! My favorite so far I think!

Jonas Helping Out

Jonas has been pretty cute the last couple of days. He has been a great big brother! Every Friday we go to my friend's house to clean it. On the way home from cleaning yesterday he was just chatting away with Tinzley. I could not here what he was saying but he was telling her about the drive. Then I heard her babbling back to him. It is moments like that make a hard day worth it. I also know that I am suppose to stay home with them to enjoy moments like that.

Jonas and I also went to Wal Mart that night. He LOVES pumpkins so we got two little ones. One for him and one for Tinzley. Not only did he carry them all the way home but the minute we got home he rushed over to Tinzley to show her the pumpkin, "Tinzley, this pumpkin is for you!" Priceless!

Jonas and Tinzley and their pumpkins

This morning Jonas woke up on the wrong side of the bed. He woke up CRABBY!!!! So, I snuck out and went to JoAnn Fabrics for a couple of hours. Someone might not have made it if I didnt!

When I got home we all ate lunch. I got Tinzley up and fed her cereal and sweet potatoes. I then was trying to get her to hold her own bottle with little success. Jonas went over and wiped her mouth with her burp cloth and then started feeding her her bottle. Again, priceless!

So cute!

Times like that I forget how awful he can be sometimes.

Tinzley just loves her big brother. It is going to be fun to watch these two grow up. Right now it is so nice!
