Bad Computer

Our computer is being really bad. It won't let us get on the Web. We've tried a new Ethernet card, but that doesn't seem to be the answer....so until we can get the Geek Squad from Best Buy to take a look at it, we're OOL. I'm using Micah's laptop from work right now.

We were busy this past weekend with my parents, and my sister and her family. We had so much fun. We went to the Circus, a farm, and the zoo three days in a row. Toby was sick the entire time and now Addie and Caleb are feeling down in the dumps. A hasn't eaten a meal since Sunday and she's been really lethargic. I thought she was acting strange and really clingy after church when we met the Wilsons and the Morgans for lunch.

I don't know why the previous post only showed one picture, but I really don't want to go back and fix it with a messed up computer, so I don't know if I ever will.

Addie enjoying the circus from Aunt Joyce's lap. She was very restless throughout the most of the show and I would have like to see more. We spent most of our time in the foyer or climbing stairs.

Caleb is wearing a funny hat a the circus...he loved the show and paid attention the entire time!


A. liked climbing in the dog kennel at M & D's house.

Had to get a picture of Toby in here too. He's too cute for words. Both my nephews are!


Please pray for Addie...she's miserable and getting skinnier by the minute. I could see her ribs today. I'm worried about her.

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Pumpkin patch this morning with my MOPS group. Our friends, Dana and Isaac, came with us. We had a great time. It was a perfect fall day! We went for a hayride, got to pick our own pumpkins, and played on all their fun toys. There was a corn maze, a hay bale maze, a choo choo train, jungle gyms, slides, and a petting zoo.

Year and a Half Photos

We took Addie to get her 1 1/2 year photos. She didn't really want to sit still so we weren't super impressed with the proofs. That didn't stop me from spending to much though...go figure!

Out with the Old, In with the New

We got a new dishwasher yesterday. Micah put it in and it looks lovely. I don't know how it works, but I imagine it will be 10x better than our old one.

Nothing too new here this week. We're all keeping busy...too busy in fact. Micah has been working on the weekends so we haven't really seen a lot of him. He said he's going to take more time off next month. That will be nice.

Addie had her 1 1/2 year pictures scheduled for last Friday, but we had to reschedule them because her face had little red bumps all around her lips. I think it's from chapstick (she entertained herself in the car one day with two different flavors). She also had a cut between her eyes and a bruise on her left cheek. Hopefully, this Friday, the blemishes will be healed and she won't have more...besides the new abrasion she just got on her knee yesterday.

Here's a picture of Addie yesterday. She was saying the word "binkie" for the camera. Of course, after a while she started saying binkie with a whine and searching for one with much vigor. Next time, I'll just have her say "cheese".


















Here's Addie cooking something to eat in her play kitchen. I think she may be trying to chant some magic spell, wave her wand, and have it appear before our eyes.
