Fall...

The weather here has been wonderful (until today...we could get some flurries). The kids wanted to jump in a leaf pile so Jared being the smart daddy that he is got out the leaf blower and blew them a leaf pile instead of using the rake :). They had a great time! Kate didn't care for the leaves too much, but she tolerated a picture of two for me.

Grace is still loving ballet and is excited to have her recital...too bad that isn't until March! Jack can't wait to out hunting again with Jared. I hope they get a deer! I actually went out with Jared one night and "helped" watch for the illusive deer....we didn't see any. It is so peaceful just sitting in the woods, listening to wind in the leaves, the birds and other animals. I know why Jared loves it so much. You get a lot of praying done while you sit there. Jared said his prayers have turned into a little begging for the deer to come to him :).

Kate turned 2 months on Nov 3rd and I can't wait to take her to her checkup next week so we can see how much she has grown. I am guessing she is about 14 pounds and 24 1/2 inches. We will see how close I am :). Here is her 1 month and 2 month pictures on the couch...

A little bit of change! She is smiling all the time now and trying to coo. She is so close to laughing- I can't wait! This is one of my favorite pictures that I have taken...

Here is the picture we chose when we took her to Sears for her 2 month pictures.
