What a fun month it has been! We love cooler temperatures, camping and all things pumpkin! :)
We're so thankful that you've had a healthy month. We give praise to the Lord.
We started the month out celebrating your Dada's 30th birthday! We went to eat Thai and to Dave and Buster's to play games...
You loved singing "Happy Birthday to YOU"!
You love sushi and it HAS to be eaten with chopsticks! LOL
You are so good at all of the games.
We had cookie cake at Dave and Buster's too!
Nelly took you to the book store and you picked out a Paw Patrol toy! She spoils you! :)
You started soccer and Dee Dee was able to come to your second game! I LOVE how excited you get. I hope and I also pray that you will always enjoy running and jumping and moving those lungs!
You are the cutest little Kickeroo that I ever did see...
That laugh!!!
You crack me up! You say several times a day... "I'm a big boy. Bennett is a baby! I'm so strong. Bennett is a baby"... so when it came time to take pictures... you didn't want Bennett in your pictures either! haha
I love to watch you run!
The first time you are meeting your coach.
Knuckles!!!
Water break time!
You stayed with Dee Dee while Mommy took Bennett to get his shots. I love snuggling in the bed with you.
You went to Pet Smart with us. We had so much fun checking out the fish, cats and the dogs! :)
We went to TJ Maxx afterwards and you found a Paw Patrol toy that you really needed! :) We also got Bow Valley some treats.
We went to Frontera's for dinner. You smiled so cute... that the waitress brought you some ice cream for dessert.
SO exciting! Your first camping trip with Rocky! Y'all went to Indian Springs State Park! Granny and Papa let your Mommy and Dada buy their truck. Your Mommy and Dada are so excited.
It was so much fun watching you get Rocky ready. You were so excited.
Mommy took you and B to pick out pajamas and sheets and a blanket. You picked Paw Patrol. Bennett chose Nemo. You were so excited. You said... "This is PERFECT! I am so so happy!"
That made us ALL so happy too! :)
You've started "peeing" in the yard by yourself. You are too cute! :)
You aren't sure about the "trailer" potty... you much prefer your potty chair. LOL
Walking around Indian Springs State Park...
You are SO good at climbing. You are very "sure footed!"
You've started asking to make faces on the Snap Chat filters.... :) This is your favorite filter.
You love kicking your soccer ball and running all over the yard!
And you still love, LOVE putting puzzles together!
You could and often put together puzzles for hours...
After a few practices... you started putting your hands "in" for your team. SO cute!
You wanted Pops to go out on the field with you... He LOVED it!
You told Mommy... "You not play soccer. You don't have soccer shoes. You don't have a soccer shirt. You don't have soccer shorts!" BAHAHAHA!
You told Mommy... "You not play soccer. You don't have soccer shoes. You don't have a soccer shirt. You don't have soccer shorts!" BAHAHAHA!
Makes my heart happy!
We went camping at Black Rock Mountain State Park. We had so much fun! You're such a big boy now... you get your OWN black cherry soda.
You love to play with Bow Valley...
And you love looking for worms to go fishing with...
Off to fish...
Black Rock Lake
I love your BIG smile!
Camp fires are so much fun! It's hard making sure the smoke doesn't blow in your face. That wouldn't be good for your lungs. No one wants you NOT to be able to experience all things little boys love though... so we keep the smoke to a minimum. You love marshmallows and roasting them on the fire.
You bring us all so much joy!
Your Dada got a new kayak for his birthday. You are such a big boy going out on the lake fishing with him.
You wanted to get off the lake and come and fish with Pops! SO cute!
You love to come to Dee Dee's to get gummy bears and apple juice. I think it must taste better at our house! :)
We went to the new shop in Monroe called "The Story Shop!" You loved checking it out. You got some horses and several new books.
There was a "hide-out" room called the "hobbit hole." You met a friend and played for a few minutes.
Dee Dee bought this size 4 shirt for you in California when you were a newborn. You can finally wear it! :)
Me and you and Mommy and DaDa and Bennett and Pops went to Southern Belle Farms. It was a beautiful day! :) You were so excited when you got out of the car that you took my hand and ran. We loved seeing you so excited. You "wanted to go back again tomorrow" you loved it so much.
So sweet!
This is the best we could do! HAHAHA! You saw a plane. :)
It was SO windy... that we stopped after this shot! LOL
You found the perfect pumpkin though...
You look so old...
You love your Mommy so much and she loves you to the moon and back!
You and Mommy and Dada were able to ride tractors around the lap...
And you got to ride a "cow train." This is your "stubborn" streak coming out and not wanting to smile for a picture! :)
You helped Mommy pick some wildflowers...
I loved watching you have fun!
They had a GIANT "bouncy!"
I think your favorite was the petting zoo. You loved to hug the animals! :)
You were having conversations with the goats. You said they were your favorite!
Germs are baaaaad for you. Your Mommy washed your hands off really well! :)
Dee Dee sure does love you Little Mister!
I love your HUGE smile! :)
Your Dee Dee does everything she knows how to do to raise awareness for Cystic Fibrosis. I'm so thankful that your sweet face represented one of the "Wish for Wendy" teams in the 2016 softball tournament that raised over $400,000 (just this year) for a CURE! This picture is from a brochure that was printed. Look how handsome you are! :) Dee Dee believes there will be a CURE and certainly a treatment to help you and I'm so grateful there is HOPE! We pray for you every SINGLE day.
Such an honor for your name to be one of the "faces" for this incredible event. I hope you will look back on this and always know... long after I am gone... just how much I love you!
This was just a big month for you! You were able to do a lot of "new" things... including climbing a tree stand to hunt with Dada for the first time.
Shhhhhh! You're looking for a deer in our backyard...
SO much fun! We were able to go to Burt's Pumpkin Patch... Look how cute you are!
We had to go during the week, so Dada was working... but Pops and Dee Dee had such an awesome time with y'all. :)
We finished the week by going camping at Moccasin Creek State Park. It was a tiny campground, but y'all sure did have a great time going on the lake.
Dada caught you sneaking something from him. They had told you "no" gum... and you sneaked a piece in your pocket for your boat ride with Pops! You had already taken the wrapper off and everything.
You got 4 fish this weekend...
You love, LOVE to fish. You are a GREAT caster and you can reel them in so well too! I'm so proud of you.
You aren't afraid of climbing on anything...
Or walking on anything. Your Mommy was trying to hold your hand. You held both hands out and promptly told her..."STOP! I got it Mommy!" You crack us all up! You are MR. INDEPENDENT!
You're so proud of yourself...
You love to make new friends. This was a little girl you met! LOL
I love this picture of you and Bennett! Just enjoying the lake and throwing rocks in....
I told you to look at the lake. You said..."That's not a lake. That's where I fish. That's water. We've already been over this before, Dee Dee!" hahahaha You are so opinionated and so funny!
You say the funniest things. We are always laughing at you! You've told me several times this month that you are going to be a "scuba diver one day. I'm going to wear goggles and catch lots of fish!" I hope you are able to sweet boy! You DO love the aquarium! :)
Mommy said that Dee Dee was crazy and you said... "No, Dee Dee is beautiful!" I loved hearing that. You thought that all month until one day I was going with you to see Bella and you told me I wasn't beautiful anymore... only Bella was! haha! You crack me up! You do tell me that you love me though... all on your own. You said one day this week..."I love you Dee Dee and I love Paw Patrol too!" OK... I'll take it! :)
I think the sweetest thing you did this month was pick out new covers and pajamas for your new camper... Rocky! You were loading up your camper and said... "This is PERFECT! I'm so so happy!" We all love to see you happy and I think it's so sweet that y'all are camping. Pops and Dee Dee LOVE to go camping with y'all.
What an incredibly blessed October this was for you. You were well. You were happy. You did so many fun, fun things! I couldn't be more grateful for a wonderful month. This October has been so warm.... record breaking warmth. We're also in a drought. We need rain but it sure has been fun camping and doing so many things outdoors and not worrying about rain. :)
You go for your every 3 month appointment at the CF clinic on November 15th.
We're praying:
* Your weight will increase so that your BMI will be at a good range. Your Mommy has been sending in weekly weight reports.
* That you are growing in height as well.
* Specifically that you won't culture anything!
* That you will remain healthy during the cold and flu season
* That your lungs will stay healthy NO matter what!
If you follow Aspen's blog and pray for him...we couldn't be more grateful. Thank you, thank you!
Happy, Happy 3 1/2 years PLUS a month sweet boy! I'm so grateful to be YOUR Dee Dee!
