My Favorite Time of Year

Geez...I can't believe its already the middle of October. Time is really flying. It will be Christmas before I know it and then soon after that, Tootles W. Furlong will be here. No, we aren't really naming him Tootles, but the battle is in full swing and that seems to be the only name we can agree on at this moment (jokingly). Is it just me, or are boy names just so much more difficult to come up with? It must be manly, but not trendy, but also sound good with Furlong, and be a good football name, and not remind me of someone that I knew in middle school who smelled bad... AGH! Please submit your suggestions to the comment box! We have decided on a middle name, though! YAY!

Anyway, October is hands down my favorite month of the year. I just get all giddy when those cool nights come rolling in. Oh, and pumpkins. I love me a pumpkin. Katie and I took the kiddos up to Gainsville for our second annual trip to the pumpkin farm. Ooops, did I mention that the outlets are right down the street from the pumpkin farm? We might have stopped there too...And we might have purchased a few things... I may be chubby right now, but Kate Spade purses are one size fits all.

Um, back to what I was saying...I love going back and comparing pictures to last year's. So here is Beau last year, 8 months old, at the pumpkin farm:

Now, compare to this year... Such a big boy. It was MUCH more difficult getting pictures this time.
What little boy doesn't love playing in a gravel driveway?






Miss Molly was almost equally hard to photograph. I guess being propped up among random gourds and hay bales is cause for anxiety in some 3 month olds...hehe. How cute is she, though? She is wearing Beau's hat from last year... and next year Tootles will wear it... and the year after that... well, let's just say, it won't be my turn. (Katie, I cropped out the inappropriate pumpkin stem placement, hehe).



This past weekend was also my 10 year high school reunion! Stay tuned for pictures that I totally stole from other people!

Turner. Beau & Turner go good together. Or...Blaine. Or...megatron (too manly?) or maybe you should just give in and make him a 5th...
