My Pumpkins!

Saturday October 20th we took the kids to the pumpkin patch. It was such a pretty day and we were so excited about Westin Kate's first trip to the pumpkin patch. Wade was excited to see "the witch" that he still talks about from last year. They have this little corn maze and in the corn maze is the witch. He loved that silly thing. We had a great morning. We took some pictures, played some and went on a hay ride. I think the pumpkin patch is one of my favorite things to do with the kids. Plus to me this is just the best time of year.

We had to work hard to try to get a good picture. Of course my favorite one of the two of them and someone had his eyes close!! It never fails but one day they will both look and smile at me. Poor Westin Kate is so used to pictures that now when we say cheese she will just start smiling most of the time. I love the picture of them on the hay ride because it looks like they are talking about something. These two are really starting to interact more together and it is so sweet to watch. I just love October and still can't believe it is already over. We can't wait for the pumpkin patch next year.

Fair 2012

Well once again I am WAY behind on blogging but because of my OCD I have to have these blog post in order so here goes!! Here is the first of many catch up blogs. We took Wade to the fair on Oct.17th. It was such a busy week. We got back from the beach Monday, Josh's birthday was Tuesday and we did the fair on Wednesday. We decided to leave Westin Kate with my parents so we could have some one on one with Wade. Ashley and Zach came along for the fun too. We all had a blast and Wade only had one meltdown. Thanks to Ashley who ordered the corn dog...little did I know Wade now LOVES corn dogs and I ordered him a hot dog. Heaven forbid you get that wrong and when our food came out and he saw Ashley's plate he lost it for a bit :) We eventually got over it and he ate his hot dog and all was good. I loved riding with Wade this year (I was pregnant last year!!) He loved all the rides and of course loved his candy apple and his taste of Josh's fried snickers. He is already ready to go back again.

And just because I think she is cute and we can't leave her out here are two random pictures of WK in October!! The girl loves her bath time.





Confessional Friday

I saw this on another girls blog and thought it was so cute so here goes:

• I confess that because of Josh's bday and the fair I have eaten way too much the past two days. Time to get serious again...I am starting shakes for lunch today!!
• I confess that I am SO over pumping it is not even funny. Trying to make it another month or two and then I am going to be so happy its done
• I confess that I really need to let my 8 month old cry it out because she still does not sleep more than 6-7 hours at a time but it is so much easier to just feed her than to hear her cry!
• I confess that we had a great week but I am glad it almost over...we were too busy this week.
• I confess that this weekend Josh Foltz and I have a date with our attic and attic steps so that we do not look like hoarders anymore.
• I confess that I hate to cook dinner because I hate cleaning up the mess afterwards. Just keeping it real and being honest
• I confess that I wanted to pretend I did not know my own child yesterday while waiting in line to get dinner at a fast food place that took 25 minutes-glad you didn't see me on the news looking for a missing child. It almost came to that point
• I confess that I am over the fact that Westin Kate now hates to sit in her car seat and high chair and that I am really over the fact that she screams and arches her back when I try to snap her in
• I confess that I am so ready for the weekend so Josh will be home and I will have some help with our lovely children
• I confess that I held a perfect sweet newborn last night and while I loved every second of it I did not wish one time that I could go back and start over again
• I confess that I occasionally keep Josh's check book in my car and occasionally pull it out to use from time to time
• I confess that my sweet husband brought home a gold Michael Kors watch for me last week for no reason...I think I will keep him!!

Happy Friday...We had a great time at the fair (minus one melt down) and I am hoping to get those pictures up soon!!

Beach Pictures take 2!!

Thanks so much to Nana for taking all these pictures for us. Wade did not want to cooperate-another reason I just love age 3 :) These were all taken on Sunday. If you are friends with my mom you may see the big family one on her Christmas cards!!

Beach Pictures!!

Warning...I took too many pictures once again. I just love having them all in our blog book though. These pictures are from Friday and Saturday. Enjoy!!

 Wade was so cute he wanted to sit down and read his little magazine. It is one of those free coupon books you can pick up on the street. He had to get one for him, Peyton and Chase!!
