Our 8 Month Old is Wild and Crazy!!

Nathan's activity can be summed up as wild and crazy. He is all over the place, all the time. He is still doing very well at school and is getting ready for his big Halloween parade next week. Randy and I are more and more enamored with him each day.

Check out our latest video of our little "pumpkin".

Fall is Here...

This post is for my dear Aunt Donna who is an avid follower of our blog. We are so happy to know that someone is actually reading about what we are doing!!!

I can't believe that it has been almost a month since I blogged. What have we been up to and where has the time gone?

Guess what our little guy has started doing on his own? I'll give you one guess...

We took Nathan to his first pumpkin patch. We looked like a bunch of tourists running around a field with our camera. I think we enjoyed it more than Nathan did.

I'll try to post more often. With the holidays coming - there should be plenty to talk about.

Look What We've Been Up To!

We have been busy, busy, busy!!! Last week, Grammy came to visit. We went to Family Day at work on Saturday. It was nice to show Nathan and my Mom where I sit.
Then, we had a big first. Nathan has started to crawl. It is the cutest thing. He doesn't have the best form yet, but he gets moving.

Lastly, Randy ran another half marathon today and achieved a personal best, 1:49:49. His goal was to go under 1:50. Way to go Randy!!!



Then we capped off the weekend with a little football.

South Carolina Fun!

We just got back from our mini vacation in South Carolina. Nathan had a few firsts while we were there. First, he saw the ocean and the beach. Then, he rode his first amusement park ride. We had such a nice time with Titi Merida, Uncle Doug, and cousin Kaitlyn. Nathan can't wait to see them again.
Here we are at the Myrtle Beach Pelican's game.
Nathan absolutely loved the beach!
This is Nathan's first amusement park ride. He is actually laughing in this picture. I couldn't stop laughing when I heard how hard he was laughing.
Daddy took him on the train next. Nathan really loved the rides.
We finally got a chance to use our portable bathtub. How cute is he??

Visit to Pittsburgh

We traveled to Pittsburgh last weekend for my 10 year high school reunion. The reunion was a ton of fun. It was great to see how everyone is doing. Here's a picture of me looking all cute with some of my high school friends. While we were in Pittsburgh, we had Nathan's 6 month photos taken. He looked absolutely adorable in the pictures. Here are a few.




Before we left, we snuck a little video in of Nathan with Grammy.

Nathan's First Tooth

On Tuesday, I found Nathan's first tooth. For some reason I thought to stick my finger in his mouth to see if anything was going on in there and, sure enough, there was a tiny little tooth sticking out. He has been putting everything in his mouth so we knew that teeth were just around the corner. Randy wasn't home at the time cause he was at his softball game, but Nathan and I drove over to the game to show Daddy the surprise. It was adorable!

Let's give you an update on Nathan at school. It is going SO well. I couldn't be happier with the place we chose. They absolutely love Nathan and that makes me incredibly happy. It makes going to work so much easier.
