Happy Halloween!

From our little Pumkin!

Pumpkin patch and Corn Maze

I don't have time to write much, but I wanted to post some pictures from this weekend. We went to a corn maze and pumpkin patch with my sister. It was lots of fun! Here are some pictures of us. I haven't uploaded them all, so this is a short preview. Thanks for coming up Auntie!!

Slow down!

Life gets so busy sometimes. I have to remind myself to take a breath and enjoy the moment. While I was busy doing 8 things at the same time today Luke looked up at me from the floor and reached his hand up. He was asking to be held. I realized that I won't have this time with him forever, and I really need to treasure the time I do have. So, we sat in the rocking chair and cuddled, and I sang songs to him. He loved it and so did I. Those are the things that I'm going to remember, not how clean the kitchen counter was.

Here is a picture I took of Lukey today. He was so happy to just sit there and pose!

What have I been up to lately?

Well, the answer to that is EVERYTHING. Luke is now scooting around the whole house exploring everything he can get his hands on. I have to watch him constantly now. It's so fun to see him discover something new.
I've also been doing lots of sewing lately. It's my new favorite hobby during nap times. (of course while also doing laundry, dishes, cleaning, etc). Here are some of my latest creations:

A shopping cart cover. Yes, I am a germaphobe!!


A diaper cover. I've actually made several of these.


And KatieLegs for everyone.


My next endeavour is making Luke some soft soled shoes/slippers. I'll post a pic if they turn out.



Oh, and my parents came for a visit too. We miss you guys!! Thanks for a great weekend!
