Forward Motion

Maren:
Another fun filled week for me with lots of activity.  We had our annual trip to the pumpkin patch a few days ago and my Nonna came with me!  I was so excited to have her come and she even rode the school bus with me!  While we were at the farm we went on a hay ride behind a big tractor to a big field full of pumpkins.  I picked out a really cute little pumpkin to bring home!  We also got to feed the farm cows pumpkins... who would have thought that cows would eat pumpkin? Well, they loved it and we thought it was hilarious! 
The day after my field trip we were home with mommy and she thought I was getting sick (apparently a nasty tummy bug has been making its rounds through my school).  I had a hard time waking up and just wanted to hang out on the couch and relax.  I wasn't really interested in eating anything until lunch time but even then it was very little.  I took a 3 hour nap and then was back on track.  Mommy figured out that I must have just been really worn out from my week at school and all of the fun activities.  Thank goodness! 
We had a really relaxing weekend at home with mommy (daddy is off hunting again), played lots of games, and enjoyed the first hard rain of the season.  I finished the weekend with a nice overnight stay with my Nonna and Nonno.  Nonna even took me to dance class so she could watch all of my great moves!  My Auntie C's even sent me a new tutu with snowflakes to wear!

Look out world!!! Here I come!  On October 14th I started to crawl!  The world is my oyster!! And my sissy is about to have a serious reality check! I have also finally mastered the art of pushing myself up into a sitting position once I have rolled over onto my belly.... so there is no stopping me!  I don't want to sit still even for a diaper change and I try to roll over and crawl away naked.  Which as you can imagine can be a very messy situation!  Luckily for mommy all of these advances mean I am back to sleeping through the night and she doesn't have to come in to rescue me. 
My sissy spent the night with Nonna and Nonno one night this weekend which meant that I got a lot of one on one time with my mommy and I loved it.  She spent the whole day crawling around on the floor with me, playing blocks, reading books, and teaching me how to love on our doggie Maxine.
