Fall festivities






We had a great time visiting Lynd's Fruit Farm this past weekend.  First we went to the apple orchards and let Will pick some apples.  He was even working on saying the word apple as he picked.  He was very proud of himself when Pete would lift him up to pull the apples off of the tree branches.  After apple picking, we went over the to the fall shop and picked out our pumpkin and some yummy treats.  It was a great way to spend a fall morning!

Happy Halloween



It is hard to believe that only one year ago, Will was all bundled up as a little green sweet pea on his first trip to Gahanna's Halloween celebration.  This year he was able to enjoy the sights and sounds a little more!  After walking around to see all the other kids in their costumes, we let Will get out of the stroller and check it all out.  Of course the first thing he wanted to do was run up to the stage where a band was playing and start dancing.  Needless to say, his cute little puppy tail swinging to the tunes was quite the memory.

Walking Wild man


Soon after his first birthday, Will progressed from taking one or two steps to a full time walker. Recently, he has also tried running!  He is becoming very independent and even insists on walking the long hallway from his classroom to the front door at school every afternoon.  It is very important that he stops at every window and waves goodbye to all the babies and toddlers as he passes by.  Getting pictures of Will has also become increasingly more difficult since he is always on the move!

Lets go Tigers




Yes, this post is a bit delayed.  Will had a great time wearing his special Tigers' jersey and hat as he cheered on daddy's team.  Too bad they couldn't pull out the win and make it to the playoffs.  We are hoping to take Will to his first game next season and  have him wear his adorable attire.

Irish Weekend






There is a lot to catch up on!  Pete and I had a great time at Notre Dame for the Michigan St. game in September.  It was our first weekend away from Will and he had a great time in Cincinnati staying with his grandma and grandpa.  The weather was fabulous, the campus looked beautiful, and it was quite an exciting game.  Here are a few of our favorite pics from the weekend.
