Mason The Monkey

We spent the weekend attending my sister's annual Halloween party and carving our pumpkins! Mason was a cute little monkey Saturday night and had fun hanging out with all his cousins and buddies Merrick and Maggie.

Sunday afternoon we bought a pumpkin carving kit and spent the afternoon carving and eating baked pumpkin seeds! Yum! When you see the finished product of our pumpkins you will probably be able to tell which one is Erick's, but in my defense I was trying to take care of Mason also!

Finally A Sunny Day....

I couldn't wait to take Mason's picture in the new hat we got him! And I finally got a sunny, fall day to do it. He was doing great until he discovered the potted mums sitting behind him, we had to call it a wrap on his photo shoot after that! We took him to the dr last week for his final dose of the flu shot and he weighed almost 19 pounds! He is very close to crawling, I think in the next couple weeks he will be getting into everything!

The Three Todds

Our Baby Is Growing So Fast!

We can't believe Mason will be 7 months old Wednesday! Here are random pictures mommy took the past couple weeks. (I am lucky to have such a good sport) We love him more everyday and are so thankful for the last 7 months!

Thies Farm Pumpkin Patch

On Sunday Erick and I took Mason to his first pumpkin patch. We had fun buying homegrown produce, picking out our pumpkins, and Mason loved watching all the people! It was a perfect day!

Strassenfest Festival

We went to Strassenfest Friday night in Chesterfield. The weather was great and even though Mason started out a little crabby, he finally snuggled in his stroller to take in all the people and activities while Mom and Dad enjoyed food, drinks, and a little German music!

Labor Day Weekend

Over Labor Day Weekend we went to Omaha, NE to visit family! Thanks Aunt Kris and Uncle Tom for having us, we had a great time!
