It's been awhile!

Sorry for such the long delay between posts...this fall has just been absolutely crazy for us. Between all the birthdays, new babies, and weddings, I just feel like the weeks are flying by and I just haven't taken the time to sit down and update. A lot has happened since the last post:

• Emma's 4th Birthday Party





• Ben received his first haircut...just a trim so he didn't look like such a wild man (a little bitter sweet)





• Ben picked apples for the first time and even got to take a wagon/tractor ride





• Kailer turned 1





• Ben's Great-Grandma turned 90!!!





• Ben turned 2 and had 2 wonderful birthday parties





• Ben now sleeps in a toddler bed...he climbed out of the crib 2 times in a row (conveniently the same night the pediatrician asked if he had done that yet...crazy, huh?)





• The Guilds came up to Howell and stayed for a long weekend

We have been so busy lately but with a bunch of great things. This weekend Greg is in a wedding and then after that we should be some what relaxed for a while.
