Pumpkin Patch

Today we visited Stoneycreek Farm to check out the activities and get some pumpkins. It was a little chilly outside, but overall, it was a perfect fall day. Lucy had a terrific time and we are already looking forward to next year since she will be able to enjoy even more of what they all had to offer. Here are some pics from the day.

We tried to get her to stick her head through - this is as good as we could get

Lucy LOVED the animals. She was smiling nonstop and constantly wanted to reach out for them. She wasn't scared of them at all.

She was happiest when we let her roam free and look around.

Lucy liked all of the large pumpkins. She would try and pick them up and then get mad because she couldn't. She LOVED them.

Looks like a perfect place to take a break.

This one is more her size.

We had such a great time and can't wait to do it again.

Reading

Lucy's new favorite thing to do is "read." She loves to bring books over to you, turn around, and back up and sit on your lap so that you can read the book to her. She turns the pages too fast for you to actually read the book, but it is still adorable. She loves to point to the things in the book and say "see" or "this." She is so much fun.

Updated

I finally updated the blog. There are several new posts below (you might even have to go back a page if you haven't seen the San Diego trip.) Sorry for the lack of blogging. It's been slightly crazy around here. Lucy has been sick again, but she's getting better, so I'm trying to get caught up on things. Have a great weekend!

Butler Playdate

Last week, Dana, one of my friends from college, came to Indy, so we got together for dinner. We joined up with another Butler pal Kristina. All three of us have kids, so before dinner, we met at my house so that the kids could play. Stealing snacks from each other was what they were most interested in, however, I was able to capture some shots of them "playing."

Our only group shot that we could get (if only Lucy could actually be looking at the camera, oh well!)

Let's Go Colts!

Congratulations Alvey Family

Congratulations to our good friends Scott and Jen Alvey. They had a beautiful baby girl on September 21. Her name is Olivia Rene Alvey. She was born at 9:06am and weighed 7 pounds 4 ounces and was 20.5 inches long. As you can see, she has a head full of hair. Mom and baby are fantastic. We couldn't be happier for them.

CONGRATULATIONS ALVEYS!!!!!
