It's been a while

Not much has been happening in our lives lately, just normal every day stuff.

Parker is walking like a champ now. His little legs look too short to support his body, I can't help but laugh at him. He and Hannah are interacting and playing together all the time now. I love watching them play.

Hannah is still doing well in dance. She is participating the whole time now! Last week they started practicing for the dance they will do for us the last day of class. Her teacher suggested that the parents not watch so it's a surprise. We have had issues with her being sassy and time outs just don't work anymore. Our new punishment has been to take her tv out of her room. Last night was not fun and she ended up being put to bed at 7:30. I can only imagine what her teen years are going to be like! I tell my parents this stuff and they just laugh at me. But on a positive note, potty training is going great. She still only wants to pee on the potty but now she says she's too big to use the potty seat and just wants to sit on the toilet. That works for me!

We went to Lewis' Farm Market on Saturday. Jay checked their website and found out they were doing a big thing with a bunch of activities for the kids from noon until 4 that day. Luckily I was able to get out of work early so we headed up there around 1. That place was huge and so busy! They have a petting area with goats, bunnies, llamas etc... Hannah wanted to feed them but she didn't want to let them eat out of her hand, she wanted to throw it at them! A $10 wristband allowed Hannah to do any activity until 4 and she did all of it. They have a pillow bounce (basically a big trampoline). I did take Parker out on that, he enjoyed it. They have the "Apple Express" that takes you on a ride through the apple orchard. I believe the property is about 700 acres. We were able to pick our own pumpkins too. We got 2 very large pumpkins for $7!! We took a ton of pictures and I have tried at least 10 times to download them and it keeps freezing up on me. Hopefully I will get it figured out soon. It was a really great day though. The weather was perfect and we all had fun. At one point I told Jay that I was so happy I could have cried! I love doing stuff like that with my family.

Well, we have a busy Monday to get ready for so I'm off!
