Here Fishy Fishy

Tucker enjoying a little fall fun in the grass and leaves

 Auntie Alli came for a quick visit!!
 Rooting for the Cards in the World Series! Yay baseball:)
Ah, Daddy and Wyatt cleaning up some fishies that Daddy caught...he wasn't quite brave enough to touch it though:)

7 months

 What a rock star!!!  Tucker Paul is now 7 months and rocking it:)
*We have an official crawler on our hands...with the occasional army crawl thrown in there for good measure too:)
*He is a movin' and groovin' ALL OVER the place!! He has found a love of dog bowls, brother's toys, and momma's pant legs to go after and put in his mouth:)
*He is a mountain climber!!  He is getting stronger and stronger in his legs and has just found out that with a little bit of effort he can somewhat stand!  He will use anything that he can get his little hands on to help him accomplish this too:)
* Still just working on getting that one tooth in on the bottom
*He is about 18 lbs now and loving to eat his solid foods and still nursing like a good boy!
*I love to hear his sweet giggles!  Whether it is Mommy and Daddy getting him to laugh or Wyatt he is so ready to share his baby giggles with us!
*As in the picture above he has pretty much mastered sitting up...for a short time anyway. He is way to busy to want to sit up for long.

The next 2 pics are of a sweet smelling baby just fresh from a scrub and all smiles:)

Fall -A- Palooza:):)


This is my most favorite time of the year....I especially love when I get to be out and enjoy the fall colors and time with family.  We took a little trip down to St Louis this past weekend and got to enjoy both!

Jonathan decided that it was a great idea to BIKE-as in pedal, pedal, pedal-to St Louis!!!  He left early Friday morning and arrived Saturday afternoon.  I am so amazed at his ability and desire to do this!!  Sitting on a bike that long...ooohhh not my cup of tea:)

We got to hang out with Mom and Dad, Michelle and Dennis and Koby at Suson Park.  They had a great  little animal farm there to walk around and see:) Wyatt especially loved the horses:)

There was lots of time spent fishing in the pond, going down the slides, and carving pumpkins:)


 Our last full day there we went to an orchard and got to see lots of cool things like a big parakeet cage where Wyatt got to feed them!

Even some pig races and a big jumping thingy:)


Our last day we took some time for a little geocaching and turtle playing...it was a great weekend!!!


 While we were down there we took the plunge and became a mini van family....gotta say I'm already LOVING the ease of getting 2 kids in and out and the space for holding all that accompanies them.  I feel too young to be in this place, but what a joy to call these 3 men mine:)
