Leeds Farm

***Edited to add: Be sure to check out Lisa's blog for pictures of Adam, Bart and I on the pumpkin jump!


This morning we went to a pumpkin farm with Bart, Lisa, and Carson. We had a great time playing in the hay barn, feeding the goats, looking at the pigs, sitting on a tractor, and riding in the banana bus. Evan loved picking up the hay. Adam, Bart, and I jumped on a giant pumpkin trampoline....we'll have to wait until Lisa posts on her blog to add some pictures from that. We bought a pumpkin to carve at home and a little pumpkin for Evan to take to school to paint. This will definitely be a yearly family tradition because there are a lot more activities for Evan to try as he gets older!

Michigan Shower

Adam's family had a "Meet Evan" shower this weekend in Michigam. Evan had a great time meeting all of his new family members and got some new outfits for the winter, blankets, books, and toys. Once again Evan was a great traveler during the long car ride.

My toys

Evan learned how to flip the tail of the turtle on his Exersaucer to see new pictures. He is so smart!

He is also learning how to hold his books and look at the pictures while sitting up.

Wind storm

Last Sunday Hurricane Ike brought high winds to Ohio. Columbus was hit especially bad and many areas lost power. Adam's school was one of these areas. He was off school Monday-Thursday which means he and Evan got to stay home together. They had a great time playing together and even came to visit me at school one afternoon.

Carrots

Evan tried carrots on Sunday. He makes a funny face, but seems to like them!

Meeting Baba

While in PA Evan got to meet my grandma, Baba. She is going to be 93 in November so it was very special that she got to hold him. He loved looking at her and kept trying to grab the buttons on her sweater.

First time swimming

We went to Pennsylvania this past weekend for a family anniversary party. Evan got to go swimmming for the first time in the hotel pool. He LOVED it!
