Lots of Fall Fun!


































































So here we are in the middle of October already! Crazy how time goes by so fast, yet some days it feels as if time doesn't go by fast enough!! :-) We have been super busy with lots of Fall activites, including the Pumpkin Patch, Apple Orchard and Corn Maze! The boys love these events and I'm sure next year Lola will be right there along with them! We are looking foward to the next couple of weeks with Halloween parties, and the boys birthdays! I love this time of year!

Jackson is turning 5 on the 5th of November! I can't believe my baby boy is 5 already! He is doing really well in school and we are starting OT this week to help him with some of his anxiety issues and possible sensory disorder. This has been an on going issue with Jack and Zach and I are so happy to finally have the right people and tools to help us, help Jackson!

Maximillion will be 2 on the 7th of November and he is definitely 2! He is talking more and more and getting into EVERYTHING!! Much more than Jackson ever did! He is such a little devil, with a smile of an angel!! :-) I have him in a music/gym class now and I think this will be good for him, having to listen and take direction from someone other than mom! One can hope, right? LOL! :-)


And last but not least, Miss Lola Grace is going on 5 months now and she is rolling over, back to front and front to back! She wants to move so bad, you can see that she is trying to crawl already! She is very determined to keep up with her brothers! Her 2 bottom teeth are trying to break through, but nothing yet! She is still a very content and happy baby all the time! She is so precious to me! Most days I am exhausted and feel as if I'm a hamster on a wheel, but I am so lucky to be home with my kids and watch them change day to day! It's the best job ever!! :-)
