Perfect Garbage!

Ever since my Mom and My Sister got these awesome garbage cans with lids that little hands can't reach in to, and that doesn't look ugly, I have wanted one.
So, My amazing husband made me one!!!
I LOVE IT!!!!!
It fits perfectly in my kitchen, and Mr. Gage can't get the trash out!!!!

*View from the front!!!!
*From the top, so you can see how fun the knob is!

15 Months

My sweet Gage just turned 15 months yesterday...
What a bitter/sweet day! I want him to stay my little baby forever...But we are for sure having so much fun with him getting older!

Some of his "Tricks":

*He signs: Baby, Please, More, All Done and if you lucky on a good day you will get a Thank You!
*He says: Mom, Dad, Dog, All Done, Yeah.
*He knows where the Baby is and points to it!
*He LOVES the Moon, and Airplanes, Thanks to Papa!
*When Daddy is home, Mom is Chopped Liver!
*At Barbies House when he is ready to go for a walk, he just goes to the Garage door and waits for Papa to meet him there!
*He is a fabulous Dancer, and doing circles is his favorite!
*Anytime he hears a dog...he yells "GOG" haha and points!
*He is a great eater!
*He always plays so well with his friends and cousins!
*He plays soccer with Daddy all the time, and is totally Left footed!
*When the Microwave beeps or the timer goes off, he runs to the kitchen because he thinks he can reach!
*He can open the dishwasher, Not a fun trick!
*He likes to "Help" with laundry and I am pretty sure will break the door to the dryer soon.
*He shakes his NO even when he wants something!

Gage is such an awesome Boy, and we are so grateful to have him in our family!

At the Doctor yesterday his stats were:
Height: 33.25 inches / 97th percentile!
Weight: 23lbs 15ozs / 45th percentile!

He is so tall! When the Dr. said that, Brett and I both just started to laugh!!!

Pumpkin Patch!

On Friday Brett's parents invited Gage and I to go to a Pumpkin Patch with them, They were taking Evan and Kyle, so of course I said Yes!!!!
It was so much fun...Pretty dang HOT that day to say the least...but we had a blast!
They have a hay ride, jumpy castles, mazes, animals to look at, (there was a HUGE pigs which Gage was not a fan of) and the Pumpkin Patch.
It was a lot of fun, But we sure missed Brett. After seeing Gage with the pumpkins I think we may have to go back or to a different one just so he can be there!
Gage thought that the little Baby Pumpkins were balls, and kept throwing them, and getting very proud of himself after! It was so cute!
*Gage picking his pumpkin!!! And for sure NOT needing any help!
*About to throw this little Baby Pumpkin!
*Gage and I on the Hay Ride...VERY bumpy...My bladder was not happy!
*Evan, Kyle and Gage!

It was so much fun to have the boys all there together!
Thanks Sherri and Dave!

15 weeks

I am planning on putting a picture on here each week through out this pregnancy...Sorry if it gets super repetitive, But I am planning on putting a blog book together so I want to just have this all done!
Week 15 seems like it got here so fast! And I feel like I just keep getting bigger EVERYDAY!!!
I feel really good, cramping is pretty uncomfortable, but its all part of it!
Gage knows where the "Baby" is and points to my belly, and pushes on my belly button. He can never just point to my belly, but MUST push my shirt up so that he can see the skin! He is so dang funny!
He signs "Baby" every time we say it and gets REALLY proud of himself!
It is so fun going through this process with a toddler!
I am totally loving it!

*Here We are 15 weeks!
(I think this shirt makes me look bigger than I really am! Keep that in mind!)

Weakness!!!

My latest weakness right now is Cookie Dough!
I learned from a VERY young age from my fabulous sister that eating the dough is actually better than eating the cookies!
So for the past few weeks I have been eating LOTS of cookie dough!
Don't Judge Me!

Pumpkin Dance!

Last weekend Tyf had a reunion to go to, so Barbie had her kids!
It was so much fun to have them around, we so miss them when they are in Palm Springs!
Barbie kept telling Reese and Cash that in order to be able to go pick out pumpkins, they had to continuously do the "Pumpkin Dance" all day long! And of course...THEY DID!!!
It was so funny, they were skipping and jumping and singing "We are going to get Pumpkins!!!"
Over and Over and Over again!*Here are the Big kids with their pumpkins, that they had to out in the cart all by them selves... It was more like a Slam Dunk!!!

*This was our circus going to the store. 4 carseats is so funny to deal with! Thanks goodness we had 4 adults! haha and that Barbie has a Ginormous car!!!

We had so much fun with them here!!!
XOXO
