Ghouls at the Grassmere Zoo

On Sunday night, we attended the annual Halloween party at the zoo. The boys were decked out in their costumes, and we all had a great night in the cool Nashville weather. Jack loved bouncing in the inflatables, getting down on the dance floor, going on the "spooky" hayride, riding the carousel, and trick or treating around the zoo. Sawyer loved just being outside and taking in new sights and sounds. The boys' entourage (Mommy, Daddy, Grandma and Grandpa) just loved seeing them have fun!

Jack insisted that he should be a cowboy, and Sawyer should be an Indian. Great idea, Jack!

Aunt Daniele comes to town

We had a great time when Dani came to visit. Jack and I miss her so much already, and he is insisting on playing at her house with his friend, Cameron, at Christmas. We took the boys to a pumpkin festival in Franklin on Saturday, and Scott watched the little guys so Dani and I could have some girl time. It was a short but wonderful visit!

Curious Jack and Sumo Sawyer :)

Jack and Sawyer have been having lots of fun in Nashville. Jack is very excited about Halloween and is already starting to talk about Santa and Christmas. "Jack wants a scooter and guitar!" He's started asking lots of questions like "What's happening there Mommy?" and "What's that Mommy?" I can just feel the "why" questions coming!! Jack is also still obsessed with puzzles (not the peg ones but real piece puzzles) and probably does them 25+ times a day!

Sawyer is a happy healthy baby boy. He's two months now and really starting to let his personality come through...cooing, laughing a little and still loving lights/the fan. He survived his shots today and we found out he weighs 15 pounds, 5 ounces. Our little "pumpkin" as I like to call him with his super round face and light red/orange hair is in the 97 percentile and growing strong!

Pumpkin farm fun!

We visited the Honey Suckle Hill Pumpkin Farm in Springfiled, TN last night. We had a great time and Jack and Cooper got to pick out their favorite pumpkins. Jack chose one for his little brother, too. The night ended on a perfect note, too...another UT victory! :) Go Horns!

A night on the town

Grandma and Grandpa were wonderful to watch our boys, so we could have a night away. We got to enjoy a couple beers and relax at the Lucinda Williams' concert with some friends. It was a fun night. I sported my new haircut for the fun, too. No more ponytails!

Happy boy!

I am starting to really see how content Sawyer is during the day. If he's not hungry or tired, he's really laid back and likes to just check out the world around him. Now if we can just kick the napping in the swing habit!!!
