A month in review

I can’t believe it’s been a month since I last posted. I tried posting many times earlier, but kept having problems uploading pictures via BlogSpot. Thank goodness someone reminded me about live writer (Thanks Joy!) and now blogging is easy again.

  September just flew by with school and after-school activities starting, visiting Jeff’s grandparents in Michigan for Labor Day weekend, and me trying to get a daily routine implemented.  The kids have gotten bigger, I’ve now got red hair and fall is in the air.  Reagan is loving school, her teacher and all her various after school activities.  I enjoy being involved in many of Reagan’s activities and Carter enjoys spending a couple days a week with Nana and Grandpa.

Here’s the month in review in pictures:

Labor Day weekend in Hillsdale, MI:

Visiting a farm:

At Hillsdale College, with the tree planted in Great-Grandma’s honor (Carter liked shaking it back-and-forth, so we hope it survives the winter):

Reagan getting a painting lesson:

Carter going through the beautiful gate into the backyard and playing with the neighbor’s dog. He spent most of his time outdoors when we were at their home:

They played on the swing set, just like Grandpa and Jeff used to do:

Digging for worms with Uncle Doug to go fishing:

Taking time to smell the flowers:

We had some beautiful late summer/early fall days at home and we tried to spend a lot of time outside. Reagan poses on a rock in our side yard:

Big Sis helping out with the little ATV:

Vroom, vroom:

Carter had his first experience with markers. Yes, he ate them and yes they were washable.

 

Reagan cheering for the Jr. Bulldogs:

Carter likes to hide in small spaces,:

play in trees:

throw fits,:

And eat bread!

One last chance to help me buy plant until spring:
