Pumpkin Patch

Daniel took today off from work to do a little more studying for the Professional Engineering Exam (which is tomorrow, please be in prayer for him) . Anyway, after some study this morning he took the afternoon off to relax and just spend some time as a family. I had been wanting to take Shelden to a pumpkin patch, so that is what we chose to do. Shelden enjoyed the trip by having his first wagon ride, getting a little pumpkin, playing with some hay and just having fun being with Daddy and Mama.












In other Sheldy news... Daniel and I were playing with him last night getting him to go back and forth between us when he took two steps totally by himself! He also stood for a good while tonight without holding on to anything (which he had not done more then a second or two), you could tell he was standing there debating whether to take a step or not. He must have decided "not" because after awhile he sat down, but Mama and Daddy are very proud of his efforts.

Craft project

Last night was Daniel's turn for prison ministry, I like to try to do some little fun craft project on these nights. Not that I do one every time or even half the time for that matter; but I did accomplish one last night. Well, the project this time was a Fall/Thanksgiving shirt for Shelden. I got a plain white shirt and painted three pumpkins on it using cookie cutters as my outlines. It turned out a lot better than I thought it might and I had so much fun doing it. Sheldy wore it today when we went to have lunch with Daddy and I think he approved. Below are a couple of pictures, he is losing his baby look and starting to look like a big boy.

Consignment sale

This weekend is a Just Between Friends consignment sale near me. So yesterday Sheldy and I went to see what we could find.
Sheldy Bug wasn't really needing anything as a friend had just pased on a bunch of stuff to him, but of course I looked and of course I found something. :) I was looking for him a Christmas outfit and I found the cutest set - pants, shirt and a vest that looked new for just $7.50.

I also looked for baby girl a few things and found some really sweet little outfits.
