Fall 2011

Not gonna give any excuses. Since the last post, we've had a lot going on. Both kids had a ton of ear infections, so we put tubes in both of them last week. Hopefully this will be the end of the weekly to every other week visit to the pediatricians office. And hopefully Robert and I will start feeling better as well. We took a vacation back in September to Hilton Head Island. Grammy and Pops were able to join us for a few days at the beginning of the week and then the 4 of us stayed the rest of the week. The weather was not perfect, but to be honest, I think I liked it better that way. No one got burned and the chillier than summer weather made it nice to relax (if you can call it that with 2 little ones!) on the beach. Our place also had an indoor pool, so it was nice while it was raining outside to have a place to still enjoy water. Eli HATED the sand the first time we put him down, but by the end of the week the childs swimsuit was covered with the stuff. Makenna LOVES the water and has no fear. Thankfully the listening ears seemed to behave and we did not have any near misses! This past Friday evening their daycare had a fall festival. Makenna had fun playing all the games and Eli played a couple, but I'm not sure he really understood what was going on - he just wanted to run and play! Robert had the weekend off and even though I am not feeling 100%, we took the kids to Corn.Dawgs Saturday morning. It's a local corn maze and other fun kid activities. The kids had a blast. It is nice spending time all together on weekends. And I was even able to get a nap while the kids were napping - the little things that make you happy! I chose a couple of pictures from the above activities - yes there were a ton more, but I don't have time for the computer to upload all of them! Hope you enjoy a couple of our faves from the past couple of months.
