Post 10-26-08


























And again, I admit to being the worst blogger. Ever. I apoligize.
Now that we all know this, let's get on to bigger and better things....

The trip to CO was great. It was fantastic to see family (despite the reasoning) and Drew had an okay time. The drive was pretty horrific for him, but we managed and made it home (thankfully!). I'm including pics from the trip.

Not much has changed for us. We're both still working and devoting all of our time to making sure Drew doesn't totally destroy the house. A word of warning to everyone---boys are boys! They break everything they touch (and some things they dont' even have to touch) and they have very selective hearing (already known by those that are married to said boys). But he's still the cutest thing to ever set foot on the planet and we love him dearly. He's learning all sorts of new things now. He's got several words (some intelligable, some not) and can sign several words. I'm confused on the signing, as he says most of the words he signs as well. Oh well. He's moved into the toddler room at daycare and is learning to hold his own. He's still pretty tiny, but we're hoping he'll hit a growth spurt soon!

We went to Piedmont for the annual Fall Festival. It was a blast. It was great to see everyone. Drew loved the parade, as you can see in the pictures. Him and Tripp mostly enjoyed the candy, although Drew managed to take time out to look at the tractors. Fun!

We traveled to Tanner's Orchard yesterday. It's an apple farm with a ton of stuff for kids to do just outside of Peoria. As you can see in the pictures, Drew's favorite part was the billy goats. He love petting them and laughed histarically when Matt got bit feeding them. Yep, a boy.

We've had a bust month and are looking forward to Halloween, where Drew will be dressing up as a lion. roar! Will post pics.

Take care everyone!
