Butter Bean

My baby is 8 months old today! HOORAY! We missed his 7 month update b/c we were out of town for the month and I never got around to it once we got back. Jackson can sit all by himself, crawl around the room, eat lots of food (he prefers tablefood to baby food), he is cutting his front teeth, stealing Abbey's toys, etc.

Jackson is so fun to have around, I can hardly believe he is 8 months old already. *sniff*

Trot Trot Trot

Joseph and I will be running in the Annual Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day. We are running it with a few of our friends. I'm not sure what lead to this decision but we are doing it. We go running at night after the kids are in bed while Jake is doing his homework.

We might be crazy.

But I think you already knew that.

Our little hiatus

In August we took an emergency "vacation" (hardly a vacation) to Colorado. We were there for a month. It was fun for everyone to be together despite the situation that brought us all together. Here are a few pics of the fun time we had together.

Oh how I love thee J.Crew

I love a good sale. Fall is on its way. I'm so excited. I, however, am not excited for what follows Fall.
