We're still here

We apologize to our faithful readers for the lack of posting lately! We've been busy, but have enjoyed catching up this weekend. Pete was in Germany for 7 days at the same time that I had a few days off for MEA break. Andrew and I went down to Cottonwood for a visit. I'm happy to report that Andrew now knows the difference between a tractor and combine. He even says that a combine "eats corn". Andrew had lots of time to play in Grandpa's new shop and Aunt Erin made him is own little man-cave inside.

It rained quite a bit while we were there, so Andrew had lots of time to play in there.

When he wasn't in his man-cave, he was helping Aunt Erin and Grandma make cut out cookies.

In case you are someone that hasn't eaten a meal with us lately, we've had it with the baby bibs and have decided that it's easier to just take his shirt off rather than have it get dirty.

Pete came home earlier in the week and we've been looking forward to having a quiet weekend at home. Saturday started with Andrew getting a haircut. He did great and when he was finished he wanted "more haircut".

The weather was nice and warm so we headed out for a walk. Thank you Grandpa for fixing the wagon!

We found a caterpillar and Andrew enjoyed watching it crawl all over him.

Then we put Andrew in a pile of leaves and threw leaves at him for awhile.

Did you think I was kidding?!

Then he dusted himself off.

And realized that he could throw them back at us.

The rest of the walk was nice as Andrew decided that he was going to pull the wagon the rest of the way.

It was a nice, relaxing day. We have another busy week ahead of us. Pete leaves tomorrow morning for Ohio and will be gone until Wednesday. We are already looking forward to the Halloween weekend!
