8-0 YEAH! And our houseguests for the game....as well as a family adventure- enjoy!
Nate is saying all kinds of things, and sentences! I got "I can do it myself" when trying to change him on Saturday morning...and he's getting so much better with his words! He was saying "Go Penn State!" all weekend....and he clearly says that he wants his PSU hat to wear in the morning. Last night sitting on the couch he said - I have snack- he uses have instead of wants at the moment...then I asked him what he wanted, he said "um, whale crackers"- Grandma had brought 2 pouches of whale crackers when they were briefly here last week, and he had one this weekend, and asked for the other one last night! The "um" before he says something is REALLY cute. He can pick out and say- Fire engine, fire truck, garbage truck, dump truck, cement truck, pick up truck. He was getting near the road at the end of our driveway, and I told him to come back and he said "No Way Momma!" now as defiant as that was, I was busting up inside...
Ok, too many words! On to the pictures!
Front door decorations left over from Fall Festival at Church- very homey :)
I loved this shirt on Nate, its a "fall shirt"- however, its a bit big, and he kept getting his arm out and up through the neck hole, so they changed him before he came home....
I still love the outfit though... :)
Nate and Daddy at the Homecoming Parade!
More parade....when Nate saw the marching band, he definitely pointed out the Tubas and said "Tuba!" ah, he is my son after all... :)
So after his day of practicing getting his arm out through the neck hole of the fall shirt- and then he had a whole day in his PSU gear where he was fine... this is how I found him on Saturday morning....Houdini...
This is the adorable Hannah- she and her parents were house guests this weekend...isn't she a cutie pie??? She's just about 1 year younger than Nate (her b-day is the day before Nate's)
Here are the 3 kids who watched the game with us on Saturday (with their moms of course....) Abigail is in the pink- I must say I forgot to take pictures earlier, and Abigail was wearing an adorable PSU cheerleader outfit- missed it.... Nate of course, and the cutie pie Hannah, and Max- who really isn't sure of what to think of the 3 little humans crawling/running around....
We tried to get them all to do the touch down arms- both girls were doing it earlier in the day...but we lost the moment....
Dapper Nate with the ladies. Oh, Abigail's birthday is also a Nov birthday- so all the kids have Nov b-days...weird eh?
I swear Hannah was trying to give Nate bunny ears....look at how innocent she looks....
Nate caught her!! :)The next set of pictures were from Sunday afternoon when Mike wanted to get Nate out into Nature, so we went hiking! We let Nate walk too. He wasn't crazy about the rough terrain at first, but then once he realized that he could pick up some of the smaller rocks and throw them into the stream, he was fine! :) Of course he wanted to pick up the "BIG ones" that he could really get ahold of....he is his mother's son after all! :)
I can't get him to look at the camera worth a darn....
He just runs away....
Nate walking on the trail...
Daddy and Nate on the trail...
Action shot - mom was just playing around....
Piggy back ride!
He climbed the little rock- though if you think about it, its kind of like a rock up to our knees and this is what he said......
All in all we had a great weekend! On another note, we found out that Max, our cat, is highly allergic- we had him allergy tested and it seems like he is allergic to fleas (we're sure he doesn't have any though), dust mites (so is Mike), 4 types of molds and fungi, and golden rod- which happens to be in season right now...sigh....who ever heard of an allergic cat??? If people say they can't come visit because they are allergic to cats, I can just say, well that's alright, our cat's probably allergic to you too! HA!
