New Haircut

In case you didn't notice, Sebastian got a haircut right before his 2nd birthday. Mrs. Ashley did such a wonderful job on his hair. He really likes her and cooperated so well (probably because she is so cute)! I'm so glad that we finally found someone that can really work with him and do such a great job! Thank goodness, it was just in time for his birthday.

Terrible Two's

Sebastian has officially hit the terrible two's. He has had a busy birthday weekend, beginning with his party at daycare on Friday. Mommy brought in train cupcakes to share with all his friends at daycare and he loved when everyone sang Happy Birthday. He got to be King for the Day! Mrs. Kristel even bought him one of his favorite things...a choo choo train & his first track. Now that he is a big boy, he has moved from the high chair to the big kids' table at daycare and he no longer takes his naps in a playpen...he now is sleeping on a cot like the other big kids. He received tons of compliments and was really bragged on by the staff at how well he has adjusted to the cot and the big kids' table. Daddy & I are so proud of our big boy!

On Saturday, we celebrated with a birthday party with all of our family. His train cake from Rowland Stollen Bakery was absolutely awesome. He loved it so much. He loved all the attention he received when we all sang Happy Birthday again and he blew his candle out in one big blow. I can't believe that my baby boy is now a little man with his own thoughts and ideas. It's amazing all the things that he knows and can do all by himself. My heart is so happy having him in my life; he is such a blessing!

Super Duper Busy Beavers

We have been so busy this month it has been absolutely unreal. I had a great birthday! Thanks to all my well wishers for those extra birthday wishes!! What we've been up to...well my mom & I got lost in BFE trying to get to my ex-aunt's wedding on MONDAY the 13th (ex as in used to be married to my mother's brother). She is still a close family member, and afterall, she is my cousins' MOM! Below is a pic from her big day w/her new hubby Ronnie and my cousin Jonathon with his bride-to-be Chandy!

Oh, and we got moved this month! Finally! We are still unloading boxes, but we'll probably be doing that for the next year with all the crap that we have. Sebastian went to a Halloween carnival w/Jayden, Kinlee and Dyson at Jade's pre-school in Holcomb. The three kiddos had a blast. Jayden is so hilarious, she kept me laughing all night. Near the end of the night, after people started clearing out, she would hop around from game to game to "win" prizes (EVERYONE won a prize EVERYTIME). After she would "win" and it was time to pick her prize, she would always make sure they gave her 4 prizes for herself, of course, and bubby, sissy & Sebastian. Stephanie and I would crack up when she would run over with all her prizes that she had "won"!!! She said, "I won these for the kids!" Sebastian loves spending time with his Aunt Effie and his cousins.

An Afternoon with Jayden, Kinlee & Dyson

Sebastian and I spend Wednesday afternoon at Aunt Stephanie's house. They were all dressed in their new halloween clothes, so I decided to snag some pics. Of course, Jayden wanted to pose like a supermodel, which makes me crazy. I love for them to just be themselves. Kinlee was definitely herself, which is why I got a bunch of great shots of her. Dyson was being a big baby and wouldn't come anywhere near me while I had the camera. Sebastian just loved being with his cousins and having fun. It was a great afternoon with our family.

Pumpkin Painting 101

During our visit to Pumpkin Hollow on Saturday, Sebastian picked out 7 pumpkins for all the kids to paint together. On Sunday, we all went to the park and I setup a table for the painting activities. It was hilarious watching the kids paint their pumpkins and themselves. Therron really got into it and he was purple before the afternoon was over. They had a wonderful time painting and playing together and Aunt Stephanie even bought a special treat. I think that was the only time they all settled down and sat together - while they drank their milk shakes. It was a great afternoon. Sebastian had an awesome time and I did, too!!

Official Trip to Pumpkin Hollow

Wednesday we drove out to Pumpkin Hollow to collect some pumpkins to decorate with. Today we actually spent the the whole afternoon enjoying all the activities. Sebastian loves the goats. He would spend all day and a million quarters feeding them. We went through the children's spook house, under the gourd trellis, chased some pigs, rode the ponies, took a hayride, walked through the corn maze and jumped on some hay bales. Sebastian picked out 7 little pumpkins for him and his cousins to paint & decorate. Fall is such a great time of year!
