Tate's Farm

Last weekend we went to Tate's Farm with a group from church. We had a bunch of fun! It was kinda like the apple farms we go to in Michigan, but with no apples.

When we got there Tyler was off to the toys. He went down the slides, rode on a horse swing, and of course played in a tractor!

We took some time to get a few pictures in front of this cute little pumpkin house!

And then Tyler and his friends Caleb Davis and Nathan James posed for a picture!

Then we were off on a hayride! It was fun exploring the farm, Tyler liked seeing the farm equipment, and we even sang songs!

After the hayride we roasted hotdogs and marshmallows. It was funny when we gave him a roasted marshmallow he did not like it. He was "all done" after one bite, more for mommy! But he did have a bite of a smore and liked that!

One of the fun things was letting Tyler pet the farm animals. They let you in the cages with them and Tyler was not shy at all. He walked right up to those pigs saying, "oink, oink, oink." It was too cute.

We have a funny story about these puppies. They were so cute and Tyler was running around with them and saying "hi," and waving when one puppy (the white one below) knocked him over. The puppy got on top of him and was nibbling on his hair and ear, then Tyler started screaming. Mike and I were laughing so hard. Even after that Tyler still wanted to play with them and was laughing.

We also had fun playing in the "corn crib." It was a bin filled with corn and the kids would jump in it and try to walk in the corn. It was funny.

It was something fun to do on a nice fall evening. Here are a couple other family shots we took.

Family Picnic

On Saturday morning we went to a Family Pincnic at my dad's work. Tyler had lots of fun, there were blow up games for him to play on.

He even went down a couple big slides with daddy. And let me tell you, they were fast! He had his first ride on a train and loved it, we went twice!
And Tyler even tried cotton candy for the first time! He didn't like it too much at first, but then started asking for more.

It was such a beautiful day for a picnic, the weather was warm and the sky was clear. We of course had some good southern barbeque too!

Transformers

One of Mike's favorite movies and toys when he was a kid was Transformers. So we had to rent the new movie this weekend. We enjoyed it, and Mike filled me in on all the details. Daddy even let Tyler watch a little bit of the movie. Tyler just kept going "Woooahh!!!" He thought it was cool watching the cars and trucks change into robots. Here is a clip from him watching it.

The Big Day is....

May 9th, 2008!!!

Mike and I went to the Doctor this morning and we got to see the baby and hear the heartbeat. The baby is 9 weeks and 4 days old, which is more than we figured so the due date is sooner, which works for me! I'm sure I will be late again, but you never know!
Here is an ultrasound picture from this morning. We saw the baby move and his or her little arms and legs. It was so cute!

I haven't been feeling the greatest lately, but hopefully in a few more weeks that will all be over with.

We had a great trip to Michigan and had a good time at the wedding and celebrating my 27th birthday on Friday night. We went to Chucky Cheese! My first time ever having a birthday party there. The things mom's will do for the kids. We had a great time though, it's been a while since I played arcade games. I got a new camera for my birthday so after I get that all set up on here I will download some pictures for you all to see.

Hopefully it will not be so long inbetween my next posts. This is the longest I have sat down on the computer in a month or so. I will try to be better and keep you updated more often.
