Benjamin 9 months

I just took your 9 month pictures and were more interested in the leaves. Benjamin you are crawling everywhere and you can pull yourself up to stand. You are starting to walk along the couch now. You have 4 teeth( 2 top and 2 on the bottom). You are 23lbs and so active. You still wake up a couple of times a night and I will be so happy when you sleep all night. Your favorite activity is to ride the lawn mower or 4 wheeler.   You love to be outside and you kick your feet and scream when we go toward the door. You love to swing in your swing outside and watch the big girls on the trampoline. You said your first word this week and it was  Da da. Of course, your daddy is so happy and you have said it a million time since then. I keep saying momma but you insist on saying Da Da!!!

Halloween 2012

 As with every day, we started Halloween with a full day. Kristin had her Fall Carnival at School in the morning. They had a petting zoo with lots of animals and pony rides. Inside school, they had games and crafts. She had so much fun!

 Waiting in line for her pony ride.

 She wanted the reins. She was telling the lady that she could ride by herself. Lol

 I kept laughing at the sheep that is trying to eat her coat.

 This is our house decorated for Halloween this year.

The kids carved the pumpkins this year. 

                                                               Mice on the stairs.

We started Trick or Treating at 3:30 on Main Street and then we hit our subdivision. We had so much fun this year. Jeremy drove the truck and we rode in the back on blankets. Benjamin loved playing with the glow sticks. We Trick or Treated  until  8 pm and Kristin was so funny this year. She wanted to ring every ring bell(doorbell) and then race to the next house. Needless to say, we have way toooooo much candy.
