October 2010

October was a very busy month for us. We finished our trip to Kentucky with lots of activities. We got to spend some time with Rebekah, J.R., Jacob, and Rhiannon (ReRe per Catherine). The fall gave us plenty to do with going to a pumpkin patch where we took a hayride to pick pumpkins, pet goats, and went through a corn maze. We also went to an apple farm where Catherine picked apples off the ground and then ate an apple pie. YUM! Halloween was also a fun time. Catherine loved being a bee and wore her costume several times. James was a skeleton. This was the costume Catherine wore last year when she was 9 1/2 months. He's catching up to her quickly.
James started giggling and smiling a lot more.
I started back to work, a week late though. I am working 3 days a week again and am very busy there. We have hired a nanny to watch James in our home. Catherine still goes to 'school'. She gets so much education and socialization which is a plus for us all. Jonathan is chugging along in his residency and looking forward to the end.
Here are some pictures from the month.
