The Farmstead

On Saturday we had a fun filled day.  Swimming in the morning and in the afternoon we went to "The Farmstead."  It was filled with horse back rides, hay rides, a corn maze, riding in a cow train, playing in a corn box, carving pumpkins, watching pig races, jumping on a giant air pillow, trick-or-treating, and hanging out with family!  We had so much fun!  Again Kenya loved all of her time with her cousins. Enjoy the million pictures.  (Believe it or not I had a hard chosen to only put these ones up.)

Cousins!  Rachel, Matt, Kenya and A.J.

After our fun day there the boys (Richard, Robert, Sam and A.J.) went to a motorbike show.  Meanwhile the rest of us went home and had a treat.  After the show Robert took Sam and A.J. back to the Farmstead to the "Field of Screams."  They had fun there and I was glad that Robert got to go to at least one haunted thing this year.  With little ones it is hard to get out and doing the things he loves so much about Halloween. 
A very busy day, but so much fun!  Thanks Hammond family for sharing it with us!

Fall Birthday Bash!

We took a trip over to my sister Cheri's house to celebrate those of us with fall birthdays.  There was Sara, me, Cheri, Rachel, Robert and Richard who all have birthdays in the months of October and November.  We got to Cheri's late Thursday night.  Then Friday we hung out and visited and then had a party that night.  It was a fun filled day and lots of fun and playing.  Kenya LOVED playing with her cousins.  Cheri and I got to chat a lot and enjoy each others company.  She has a great place with a wonderful garden and orchard.  I am so proud of her and all that she accomplishments!

Height and Weight.

Jasmin was measured toady.
She is just over 3 months old
weight: 12 lbs 5 oz 50%
height: 23 inches
overall percentile: just over 75% (this is height and weight combine)
She is a growing and doing great! She is a happy smiley and sometime giggly baby! She loves to talk. She had not yet rolled over, but I think she is thinking about it. She loves to have Kenya and I sign to her. She tries to mimic sounds we make (clicking tongue, raspberries, etc.)

Catching up.

Really quick before I forget for the millionth time... Here are Jasmin's 6 weeks stats.
20 3/4 inches
8 lbs 12 oz
Just to make sure they are recorded somewhere before I forget. I already for got the head measurement.

Making Jack-o-lanterns

Here are some before, during and after pics of the whole Jack-o-lantern making process. It was so much fun! Robert took forever to get his done and so we didn't take any pics of it.

Lights, Camera, Action!

Just a cute picture of the girls laying by each other.

Kenya is in the Halloween spirit. She's even acting like her jack-o-lantern! (She was so tired!)

A Patch of Good Weather

 The fire department was letting people tour the engine. Kenya was shy at first but warmed up real nice when she found she could sit in the driver's seat!

We started the day out doing some shopping and we came across the fireman and police @ K-Mart.

Jasmin and Daddy had a good time too!

 Our cute girls!

 What's so funny? We discovered the best way to get good, unforced smiles from Kenya is to get her to laugh with us!

 Our amazing friend Camille and the girls. They love Camille...we all do!

This is the patch where we chose our awesome pumpkins!

There was a straw tunnel that we went through.

Some pics of the hay bale maze we had fun in.

 

 

She is soooo cute!
