The Pumpkin Patch

October was kicked into gear over the past week...decorate pumpkins, buy costumes, and a trip to the pumpkin patch with friends. It's a dusty, dirty time, but worth it for the kids to have some Halloween fun. We had fun, we had lots of dirt, we had allergies, we had showers. Thank you friends; we love you!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Cowboy JT is just hang'in out in the train.

His Dad's truck is bigger, louder, faster,

but "Goliath" seemed to handle this one quite well.

You have to start somewhere.
BOO!

Hay There!

The "big kids" are still cute. Ahhh!

Look Mom I'm orange and jumping in a pumpkin!

Taking a little break.

Hay Ride

For the picture, the girls went for cute, Goliath for smoldering.

Hay now, it's the whole group.

3 Boy Mom smiling as she recalled a previous trip

to the pumpkin patch. Bird!

3 Girl Mommie sport'in a fancy macaroni necklace.

Group Shot!

Fun with Friends!!

Silly Faces...no problem there

The kids all went on the Merry Go Round together.

Goliath ran and ran to push them.

Whoops! Goliath fell down. Doesn't that sound familiar?

Little Boy, Big Slide

JT made it to the top!

He's so far up there I could barely see him. LOL

Live, Laugh, Love

Recent Pic's

Here's some updates and recent pictures of the kids.

bomp, bomp, bomp..."Another bites the dust, and another's one gone, another's one gone"

Sissy lost another tooth...in her sleep. Couldn't find it anywhere in her bed or room. Guessing she might have swallowed it. Sissy was very upset and wanted to know "So, how does THAT work with the Tooth Fairy?"

JT is SO into trying to be independent. While I was putting on my makeup one morning, he fixed himself some breakfast. Here is how I found him, so proud of himself. He gets a "A" for effort, but a "F" for nutritional value and breakfast choice. Sigh. Life with a 4 year old.

This past weekend was Western Day, a celebration the city puts on every year. We always go, although it looked like this year would be an exception. It was raining Saturday. We missed the parade and Daddy didn't do the car show. However, the rain stopped by afternoon so we went. It wasn't as hot as it is typically, but the humidity was very "Houston-like". yuck.

Yeee Haw!

The Obstacle Course. The kids wanted to race each other. Daddy helped little man get started.

Ready, Set, Go Sissy wanted to ride the Boogie, Woogie Choo Choo. Shockingly, JT did not.

Sissy wanted to do the "rock" climbing. I wondered how she would do...the holds are kind of far apart and most of the little girls were having trouble. Did my daughter have any problems? Nope. Part monkey, I think. She climbed very quickly and all the way to the top.

JT didn't want to go on the big "mountain", but he wanted to go on the big slide.
What would Texas celebration be without horses and ...

Longhorns.

Crazy

Let me guess, you thought of me first. But, no, my time has just been a little crazy with everyone back in school and I'm back to my part-time job. It's good though, and we'll get a routine going...just not much time to blog. I have several I want to do. For now, my thoughts are primarily on those who are battling health issues.

• My Aunt Wanda, who is in ICU, had an aneurysm after surgery on her leg and has an upcoming surgery for another stint in her neck.
• My Dad's wife, Jackie, who has been battling a bad infection from a knee replacement. I believe all the infection is gone, and she will go back to surgery soon for the knee to be put back in.
• Mike, a friend of ours for 20+ years, will under go surgery this week to remove a tumor from his spine. 2nd go around.
• 3 Boy Mom, a dear friend, who is going through maintenance chemo to keep ovarian cancer from coming back.
• My Uncle Johnny had a heart attack and had 3 stints put in. A scare, but from what I hear, he is doing much better now.

I'm ready for Fall and cooler weather. It's my favorite time of the year! I've already had a pumpkin spice latte', bought some pumpkin to make bread and made ginger crinkles.

until next time...Momma Wolg

Family Pictures

Last weekend, we finally had some family pictures taken. It was a lot of fun. The photographer is a friend from church. She has a God given talent for photography. So nice to see others use their gifts.

The pictures were all outdoors and some include the hot rod as you see below. This is one of Daddy's favorite pictures. I've used others on my blog. Taking pictures can never go smoothly, especially with kids. Just par for the course. Something got into JT's eye when we were half way through. There was screaming, crying and he was all done. Well, almost. He agreed to do a few more when he saw the LARGE lollipops our friend had for the pictures. Unfortunately, no sword pictures for Daddy and JT, which would be very fitting. I stepped in for him. LOL. Maybe next time.

To see all the pictures, you can go to The Cotton Crop Photograph.
Thanks PandaMom. Momma Wolg

First Day of Preschool

JT started back to preschool last week. It's hard to believe that this is his LAST first day of preschool. In less than a year now, JT will be starting Kindergarten and in 'big kid school' with Sissy. My little buddy.

JT was ready for school to start. He is in the Frog Class at the Child Development Center (CDC) at our church. JT has lots of his buddies in the Frog class so he is super excited. He wakes up each day asking if it is a Frog Class day. His teachers are Ms. Michelle, Ms. Maureen and Ms. Dee, although I don't have a picture of them yet. :) I'm excited he has them; they are creative and sweet teachers. And, I forewarned them that J & his buds...should be a lively group. ;)

As tradition, I take a picture out front on the first day of school and then one with the teacher. Well, JT pretty quickly informed me that he did NOT want to take any pictures. Finally, he agreed to give me a quick picture before we left. He said "NO pictures at school." So, I don't have a picture of him with his teachers YET.

Love you my little Frog! Momma Wolg

Quick picture on the first day of preschool

"Cheese"

Big man marched right in the first day and sat down by his buddies.

No picture. No kiss. No hug. No Good-bye. Sniff. Sniff.
Okay, 2nd day of preschool. Trying to get pictures again.
Got one out front with the new Batman backpack.

Never fear Bat Boy is here.

And, still no picture with the teachers or at school.

Whateve. I'll get it...just you wait. I'll get it.
