Field Trip!!

Nick has been LOVING pre-school. We only know this because of the giant smile on his face when we are driving up to it and because his teachers say he's doing great and because he has a giant smile on his face when he answers the question, "What did you do at school today?!" with "I don't know". We get very little information out of him, so when the field trip slip came home asking for chaperones, I was all over it!!! I couldn't wait to see the other kids (and the Moms too!) We went on a hay ride, pumpkin hunt, had races, played with the big parachute and did the chicken dance! What more could a kid ask for??

Such great listeners!

Waiting for the rest of the kids to come back with their pumpkins

Noses on blue and feet on green!!

The whole gang. I always think of Nick as BIG...maybe because I always see him next to Chelsea, but he looked so little when he was with 16 other kids his own height! They looked like a gang of munchkins. So cute. Next school event is a parent's social...can't wait!!!

Fall is in the Air

Pumpkins, hay rides and corn mazes...OH MY!!!! Although I would take summer-like weather all year round, we have been enjoying all of the fun activities that fall has to offer...

Great job carving Daddy!! It took him about 1.5 hours and the kids became totally disinterested after the icky stuff was scooped out.

Get ready, set, GO!!

Sneaky boys weren't supposed to be off the path!

CORN!!! There were corn cobs ALL over the place and every time the kids saw one they'd yell MORE CORN!!! (Yes, children we are in a CORN maze)

Cousin Abigail

We welcome with MUCH love, Nicholas and Chelsea's new cousin, Abigail Elizabeth Wagner. We visited her yesterday and she is a LOVE! It was so nice to cuddle a warm, fuzzy baby again! The kids were quite curious and very gentle and loving with her. We are looking forward to making many more memories with you Abby!

Decent group shot (if we do say so ourselves!)

Big Cousin Nicholas did such a great job holding Abby tight

First time I held her was for about 2 minutes because Chelsea was VERY jealous but this picture was taken in the middle of a 1 hour holding marathon (heaven!!!)

Niiiiiiiicccccccccceeeeeeeeeeee. Chelsea kept saying as she stroked her head. So cute.
