HONEST ANSWERS

Friday Chase crawled out from around the corner and I said "Woah Katelyn... where'd Chase come from!" she gave me a "duh" look and said "FROM YOUR BELLY MOM!"

BEARS-BEARS-BEARS

Fall has arrived and with it comes all kinds of fun activities. Last week we took Katelyn and Chase on the annual "BEAR HUNT" that is sponsored by the library. We took a bumpy hay ride out to the park and walked under the stars on a path lighted by luminaries. Along the way we stopped to hear bear stories.

This weekend we took a trip to the nature center to see the Deer, Wolves, Bald Eagles, Owls and Black Bear. Lucky for us we forgot the stroller. Carrying Chase around helped us burn off the calorie-laden homemade strawberry ice cream, buffalo jerky, honey coated peanuts and popcorn balls we devoured while there.

And tonight we went to our first "TEDDY BEAR TIME" at the library. It was so much fun, we just need to work on Katelyn SITTING DOWN so that the other children can enjoy it as much as she did.

A WEEK OF FIRSTS

This week Katelyn has been working hard on her bike skills - Tuesday night she made her first trip on her "BIG BIKE" up to main street and over a block, and back to the house.



And tonight Chase man got his 1st hair cut - I wasn't sure if he really needed one but it was covering his ears, so we gave it a go... and its ADORABLE he looks very grown up :(

He sat on my lap and held very still, I think he was enjoying looking in the mirror and seeing Katelyn & Mark getting a trim in the chairs behind him.

I bought some skittles and dragged Katelyn out into the backyard again, she got one treat for every smile ;) worked like a charm.
