The Month of October

It's been a busy month for us, but Jared has really enjoyed it. We basically spent almost 2 straight weeks with his grandparents, so he was pretty spoiled! I just need to add that I'm sorry for the weird paragraphs. I don't know if Blogger has changed, but for whatever reason, I can't seem to just type what I want wherever I want it anymore. I hope this will still make sense! If not, I guess just enjoy the pictures!

We started out at my parent's house to visit with my sister, Kayla, while she was in town. As you can see, Jared gets the royal treatment from Grammy!

Kayla was blowing raspberries on his belly and I don't think he knew what to do about it! haha!

My grandpa, my dad and my son all playing together! Well, Jared was stuffing his face with Cherrios while everyone else entertained him.

Mom, the kids and the grandboy!

We had a Star Wars party to go to in Charlestown that weekend. Isaac was wearing his Jedi robe and Jared was Yoda (yes, that is the same costume from last year!). If you're wondering, that is a bruise on his cheek from falling onto the pedal on my parent's exercise bike.

Jared's favorite character was Darth Vader. He made his father very proud! It was really funny, though, because he got mad at first when Vader wouldn't hold him!

Our son is now officially part of the Mayor's photo op! Those were all the characters at the party.

Isaac getting choked by Vader!

After the Star Wars Party, we went home for about 3 days before heading out to Nauvoo, IL with Isaac's parents. This was us at the Visitor's Center.

Luckily, it doesn't appear that my son has the same allergies as me... yet! As soon as he came back to the car, I started sneezing and getting all congested. He loved the horse, though!

Jared and his grandpa took a little walk around the temple. We did get to attend while we were there, which was so great. The Nauvoo temple is so gorgeous!

Jared was really fascinated with the river! He probably could have stayed out there for quite a while entertaining himself!

He loved the wagon, and yes, he's standing on a barrell. I was right there, though, see my fingers?! I was freaking out, but Isaac kept telling me to move so he could get a picture! haha! I'm glad now, because this is so stinkin cute!

The last bit of busyness this month was my doctor's appointment last week, where it was in fact confirmed that there is a little Baby Hall on the way. It's funny, because we just decided in August that we wanted to start trying again, and apparently that was all it took! Baby #2 should be due sometime around May 24. I'm just hoping I won't go early again and end up in labor on my birthday!
