20 posts in 40 days...

I was just noticing that last year I blogged 51 times (impressive, I know!). I had high hopes back in March that I would post more this time around...but here I am, 40 days until 2010 and I need to post 20 times just to match the number of times I posted last year. It seems impossible given the time of year we are entering but I'm going to try and do it. This should give my few but loyal followers something to look forward to the next few weeks. Thanks for sticking with me even though I'm a blog slacker :)

Ruthie is 4 months old!!!

I don't know where the time has gone...4 months?!?!?!? Just over the weekend she started grabbing and grasping with her hands. She hung out in a exersaucer and johnny jump up for the first time too. She is also experiencing her 1st cold. Poor girl is pretty congested. She has also started to roll. She has rolled from her front to her back a handful of times. We love seeing her grow and change each day. She is just a precious little angel.

Happy Halloween!

Big Pumpkin Day!

Big Pumpkin Day is a big deal at Isaac's school every year. The whole day is filled with fall fun. I was able to volunteer in the morning for one of the activities. Classes would come into our room to play a fall themed game of bingo. It was so much fun to see Isaac with his classmates.

Listening carefully to their teachers' instructions:

The hayride route goes right by our house so we were waiting outside to see them go by:

Here they come!

Thanks Gramma!

Ruthie is 3 months old!!!

She's growing and changing everyday! She is so smiley and works so hard trying to "talk" to us. She sat in her Bumbo seat for the 1st time last night and seemed to like the new view. She LOVES watching her mobile friends, either on her swing or crib. She is still a pretty good sleeper and has had a few nights with stretches of 4-6 hours without waking up. She is a sweet little girl and we are all having so much fun with this new life in our family.
