It's Autumn Time!


It most certainly is Autumn Time here in Cache Valley and I had forgotten how much I love Fall here! The leaves are amazing colors, the air is crisp, and there are a ton of fun things to do to celebrate the season. We went out to American West Heritage and had a lot of fun. They had a straw jump, corn maze, pony and train rides, animals and all kinds of fun things. We had a really great time!







We also went to the Pumpkin Walk in North Logan. I hadn't been for about 10 years and I was amazed at how good it was!! Here are the kids with their friends.

Maddie and Kennadi were so excited to see the Snow White display. It really was so fun to see everything made out of pumpkins. Some of them were really clever.

Taggart was very excited when he saw the Super Mario display and he actually sat down so I could take his picutre.

Taggart took this picture of Stephanie and me. He said, "Mom, got ya right in the middle," and handed me the camera. He is pretty good at taking pictures.

Another of Taggart's favorites right now, How to Train Your Dragon. He had to get his picture with Toothless.

We really had a great time and the kids wanted to go back and take Dad, so we braved the storm last night and went in the snow!! We decided to just embrace the cold!!
Parker is now 3 months old!! He has been such a happy little baby and is now grinning all the time. He has found his hands and we hear him sucking them and his thumb sometimes. Isn't it cute?

He really only cries when he is either tired or hungry and has even slept through the night a few times already...sooo nice!! He is really starting to enjoy his mobile and can watch it forever! He just sits and talks to it, moves his arms, and kicks his feet. He gets pretty excited!

It has gotten pretty cold and we love to get into our warm jammies! I am sooo happy to have these 3 little kids!!

I can't believe that he is already 3 months old! He is growing up faster than any of my other kids and it is really making me sad! I wish he could just stay this way forever!!

It is a good thing little Miss Maddie is so dang cute or I would have given her away by now! She is such a little tornado!! I cannot clean up after her fast enough! Her room is always a mess; with clothes and toys strewn about. We are STILL having issues with clothes and whenever we get home, she puts on her pajamas and it drives me crazy! She has all these cute clothes and hardly wears them! I thought it was just a phase, but it has been going on for about 9 months now. I am very tempted to take all of her clothes and hide them and only allow her 1 outfit a day! Is that too mean? I just don't know how much longer I can do this??? I am so sick of her looking like a ragamuffin all day when we are home!! Oh! What to do??

Such a cute post! I love the farm pics. I love seeing pictures of you and Stephanie too. Miss you girls! Does it make you miss the Staehli farm at all? Last year was fun going together. I can't believe how chubby Parker is getting! Our boys better be football players or something! :)

i am so horrible about keeping up with blogs...and commenting. but i have loved reading all your posts and watching your family grow. the kids keep getting more darling. i can't believe how delicious parker's cheeks look! i agree with you with each baby, it goes by faster. ethan's first year flew by way too fast. i hope the adjustment to three kids is getting better each day. although i really love fall on the east coast, i miss being in cache valley. what a beautiful place! i hope you are doing well...you look happy!

Looks like Logan has a step up from Staheli farm! Cute pictures! I told myself when we get a bigger house and we actually have an office I will be a better blogger. Oh, I also need a better camera! I'm full of excuses!
