October Things

Oh, October.  You're the best!  Here's what we've been up to this month…

We all look forward to our annual trip to Blessington Farms!  We had such fun, family day!

 One of our favorite traditions is our visit to the pumpkin patch with the Beemans!  This year we had two more punkins! 

We painted and carved pumpkins!

Georgia wanted a flamingo pumpkin. ;)

Chris and I went to an Aggie game!  We always love being back in College Station.  

 We sported some festive outfits at school...

and our school/class shirts. :) 

We enjoyed some cooler weather and have spent some time getting reacquainted with the outdoors.  

One morning even "required" coats and hats! ;)

Reid is doing a 4 week (once a week) baseball clinic and is having so much fun!  

Georgia Kate is still enjoying dance and loved getting to wear a costume this week!  

Our little Dorothy dancer...

Thursday was Nursery Rhyme Day at school!  

Little Boy Blue and Little Miss Muffet 

Yesterday Reid and I got to go to Dewberry Farm with his class!  We had such a great morning.  They have such a sweet group this year.  

October, we love you!

Little Aggies

Love these little Aggies so much!

Rhett is 11 months old!

One month away from one year old?!  How can it be?  Rhett is at the cutest age and I just love him so so so much.  

Rhett is starting to understand more and it's so fun!  He also recognizes his name!  He will usually bring me a toy if I ask for it and he understands that he's not supposed to do something if I say, "no no".  He loves to dance and when I ask, "Can you dance?" he will either wave his arms back and forth or start bouncing up and down if he's standing up and holding onto something.  I think Rhett is picking up on his big brother's love of football because he loves to throw balls and he also loves to tackle! :) If anyone is laying or sitting on the floor, he will go right over and crawl all over them.  Now that we've had some relief in the weather, Rhett loves to be outside!! He loves to swing and loves going on walks.  He also got to try out the cozy coop last week and thought he was hot stuff!  

Rhett has expanded his eating horizons this month and is now eating a little meat as well as some typical kid food like grilled cheese. :) He still loves to start his mornings with cheerios and yogurt.  He almost always has banana pieces and blueberries at some point during the day…his favorites!  Rhett takes a morning nap around 10:30 and and a short afternoon nap at 3:00 when we get home from picking up Reid and Georgia Kate from school.  He is still nowhere near sleeping through the night, but we are currently back to working on that.  He has started falling asleep in my arms before I put him in his crib at night, which is my favorite thing ever.  He went through a long phase where he just wanted to be put down and not rocked and I'm so happy I get to rock him again.  

Rhett Michael, you are just the sweetest and we all love you SO much!!!

School Shenanigans

Somehow the first month of school has already come and gone!  It's been fun to have Reid and Georgia  at the same school this year.  Reid feels like the experienced big brother and I know Georgia loves having him right down the hall.  They have both loved school so far! 

Just a few morning pictures...

Looking so big carrying treats for her teachers...

Our school has an app where we can see pictures of our kids during the day!  I love it!  It's been nice to see some of the things they are doing so that we can ask them specific questions about their days.  

Dad's Night was a couple of weeks into school and the kids were happy to show Daddy their classrooms!  I always love the little questionnaires.  

We are settling into a good routine and I am loving having a little one on one time with this cute boy!
