Fall Activities

Little Pea Marlee!

Cookie Monster Mason!
Teaching Marlee how to keep that paci in!
Hazel the Hippo and Marlee-3 weeks
Porter the Puppy and Mason-3 weeks
Holy Pumpkins!
Apples on the tree!

We had our first Halloween party of the season at the Shanks'.  Mason wanted to be Cookie Monster but was against getting his picture taken.   Marlee was a sweet pea pod!  We had so much fun and Mason loved being around all of his friends and Ryan, Stella and Norah's toys!

Mason is a paci pusher!!!  Here is a picture of him giving Marlee her paci, he was very insistent and she listened--deciding to give that pacifier another chance!  This was their first unprovoked conversation:)  Mason is so sweet with her.  He is going to be a great big brother, very protective of his little peanut!

Marlee has Hazel the Hippo, and I have attached a picture of Mason with Porter the puppy.  They were both 3 weeks old when these pictures were taken.

We have gone to the apple orchard and the pumpkin patch in the recent weeks.  I really want Mason to get out of the house while we still can and try to carry on as much as possible with our previous life.  He loved both places, and there was so much for him to see.  Marlee just rode in her baby bjorn and slept through both places.  Mason ran all around looking at the tractors, the apple pickers high into the trees and the trucks at the orchard.  He loves to eat apples so we brought many home with us.   At the pumpkin patch they had many animals, including some donkeys he got to touch!  The tractors there were equally as fascinating!  He kept throwing pumpkins into our cart so we came home with quite a few!

Hi Julie! OH CONGRATS on your new baby girl. It feels like yesterday we were together and you had just found out you were pregnant and I was at the end of my pregnancy. Yippee for how adorable Mason and Marlee are...I love these pictures. So glad we both started this blog thing so that we can keep in touch. Say hi to Scott for us too! Hope you are getting some rest.
