Apple Orchard

I got the chance to take my Mom and Dad to Shawn's Family Apple Orchard last week. It was so much fun to see McKenzie sit with Papa and eat treats while Mom and I worked. It has been so nice to spend time with Dad, and have McKenzie get to know him and become his Buddy. She loves spending time with him. Dad has Parkinson's and suffers from Dementia here and there, so I really wanted to take the opportunity to get him and Mom out in this beautiful fall weather and spend some quality time. McKenzie did a great job picking apples, and eating them too.





Joy School

McKenzie has been enjoying Joy School with some neighbor friends this year. She is doing really well, and loves to be around all the fun friends. For one Lesson, we took the kids to the pumpkin patch where the kids got to pick out a pumpkin and take pictures on all the big tractors. McKenzie was of course in the "don't you dare take a picture of me or I will scream" moods, so we got a few cute pics, but her smile is nowhere to be found.. Still it was a great time, and we picked out lots of pumpkins! Mom narrowed it down to 3.






We're having a....

Child! Just kidding. We went to the doctor today and found out that we are having a cute little BOY! It seems he has all fingers and toes, and a good size head. I am actually due a little early too. February 28th is our new due date, but Mom is hoping/praying for at least a March 1st due date.... For supplemental insurance reasons. I guess I jumped the gun... Maybe I'll get lucky and for my 30th Birthday I'll get to be in Labor! So fun!! (Can't you just see the smile on my face right now??)

Here's a couple of pics of the little cutie. I like to think I'll get this one and He'll look like me... We shall see!
