Our Week

Well I will start with Mr. Landon who has decided to chew on anything and everything he can gets his hands on lucky for him this flower on his walker cannot run away and is there for his chewing pleasure. I check today and Samantha was 18 pounds at 8 months this not so little guy is 16 pounds and 5 months old. So to anyone who might say he is not chubby or big I would say to me he is. Samantha was a very skinny little baby and has pretty much stayed that way.

Okay as I have said before the weather here is beautiful so Samantha as well as most of the rest of the kids in the neighborhood spent their time outside and to they're delight so does Chloe the neighborhood dog. Samantha and her friends Savannah spend hours chasing and being chased by this Little white ball of fluff. Samantha feels it important to also "climb" the tiny little tree in the drive way, poor tree!

So back in May we planted several pumpkin seeds in hope that we would have pumpkins for Halloween well it has been 4 months and finally these very large pumpkin plants has produced a whopping 1 pumpkin that we are guarding dearly to hold onto so that in Halloween baby tradition in the W house we can carve it out and put Landon in it for some good old Halloween photos. This was accomplished Samantha's first Halloween and will be our goal for the rest of how ever many children come into our home.

This last weekend we went to a birthday party for one of Samantha's little friends Kennley and I was at a loss of funds for purchasing a gift so my creative juices started flowing. I have wanted to make an apron for Samantha for the last several months and so I made my first attempt and it turned out wonderful so we gave this cute little apron and some good old home made Play dough to Kennley for her birthday. After this success I think I should always first to to come up with a homemade gift and then if that fails I will buy one. I have also decided to do a 100% homemade hand crafted Christmas as far as gifts are concerned.
