more fall photo shoot





Fall Time

My favorite time of the year is fall. I love the pumpkins, apples, cider, the coolness in the air. I love seeing the fall leaves. So Here are Wesley's fall pictures which turned out to be harder than I thought, as he was watching everything in the world go by. He is now 20 lbs and 29 1/4 inches tall.

My First real apple. I like it.





I think I will try this pumpkin!


OH MY Spagetti!

Cows Milk!

We are transitioning from breastmilk and formula to cow's milk. I have been pumping since Wesley was born since he was tongue tied, lost too much weight at a few days old, and got attached to the bottle nipple. My supply went down in July and that is when he had his first taste of formula which he did not mind. We are now trying to give a sippy of whole milk to transition off formula and let mommy retire from pumping.



He thought the milk tasted refreshing and liked it!

Mailing Grandpa birthday card

What I am not supposed to eat this!

I put in this slot and it goes where?


Where did it go! I want it back!



"That's a good card pawpaw!!" Happy Birthday!

1st story time at library

Wesley went to his first story time at the library. The book was about babies and 10 fingers and toes. He was not sure what to make of all the other children running around as the majority was older. Only some siblings were younger. The play group is from ages 1 to 3.

577 Foundation

A couple of weeks ago, my friend Victoria, her daughter Solanna, Wesley and I headed to the 577 foundation in Perrysburg, Ohio. Wesley had his 1st tomatoes out of their garden which he loved. It was a beautiful day and fun was had by all.




First Art Festival

Wesley went to his 1st Black Swamp Art Festival on last Sunday! He enjoyed eating fresh cut french fries and listening to live music. Can't wait until he can do the kids art.


Weird play places

Sometimes I find Wesley playing in the weirdest play places. Here are the pictures!


11 months

I can't believe it is less than a month until Wesley's 1st Birthday! We recently put up the Jumparoo into the attic. It was previously located by the recliner and was preceded by the swing. It is so very weird not to have a large baby item in that location. I am little veklempt. Our attic has become the land of misfit baby items. No longer needed for right now as they have been outgrown by Wesley.

Wesley's fever

We had the first real illness of Wesley life. It was scary for both mom and dad. Wesley started off Friday morning like normal but by noon he had a 99 degree fever and it kept climbing. I took his temperature at around 4 p.m and it was up 103.8 which was very scary. I called the doctor office and they stated to give medicine to reduce the fever and try a bath. I had already given Motrin so I tried the bath. His temp dropped a little. It was a long night as he had 103 degree temp and Jonathan took him to the doctor on Saturday morning. He had Herpangina. He is doing much better today but still has mouth sores in his mouth.

New diapers

So Wesley learn how to do a new trick----take off his diaper! So we order new ones with snaps.










Wesley was impressed by his new stash and liked the pattern that were picked out.

Knitting Monster

Before Wesley came I used to like to knit. I now find it hard to find time to do it. Or when I have yarn out this is what happens. Wesley can destroy a ball of yarn in 2.5 seconds.
