And the Craziness Begins. . .

October has been a very fun and exhausting month and it's not over yet! Sorry these blog pages are heavy on the pictures and light on the commentary, but life is just a little too crazy for a lot of talk. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves!




Hanging out at home: 10/4 and 5





























Trip to the Farm: 10/19







































More Fun at home: 10/16 and 18

























Photo session for birth announcement: 10/16


I was brought home from the hospital in this outfit and blanket.



















Saturday afternoon at the beach: 10/13





































Picking pumpkins at the pumpkin patch: 10/10



































Snoozing after a good cry: 10/12

























Mom's last day here: 10/19


































This month was great and we were so glad my mom was able to stay for so long and help us so much. It sure is different with her gone, but we are all surviving and getting into a routine. Caylyn cries a lot in the evening for about 2 hours so that is really hard, but I know it will get better soon. We try every baby contraption we own to soothe her, but most of the time nothing works. On the bright side, when she is done crying and is fed and bathed (she doesn't really like that either) she will sleep for about 5 hours. I guess it is a trade off!


That's it for now. Hopefully we will have some Halloween pictures on here soon. Take Care!

"Daddy, you wanna go fishin"

Caleb's new favorite activity with his Daddy is going fishing. The two of them have been spending a lot of time together playing and going fishing. This has been so good for Caleb and he always has a good time, even though he hasn't really caught a fish yet. He does a lot of casting though and could stand on the dock with his Daddy for hours.



Caylyn is a beautiful baby and is so sweet and good. She is an excellent sleeper so far. Here she is at 7 days. . .

Caylyn's First Three Days

Caylyn's first three days were wonderful and tiring. She is such a great baby that it is hard to complain at all. Our trying times were with Caleb. We paid him a lot of extra attention though and it seems that things are calming down a bit.

Not much to say about the first three days except that we feel tremendously blessed to hold our baby girl and just admire all of her adorable features. Here are the pics. . . .
