Andrew scooter

I just found this video of Andrew learning to scoot/crawl and everyone is cheering him on.  It's pretty cute.  It was from early September, he was not quite 7 months old.  

 

Couldn't figure out how to put the video on,  but everyone was cheering him on, it was pretty cute. Here is a screen shot of it at least.  

Pumpkin patch

We went to a pumpkin patch of sorts at a nearby church.  The kids had tons of fun running through all the pumpkins and tried to pick every one of them.  They each picked a mini pumpkin and were so excited to bring them home and paint them.  Then Benson and Elsie spent Thursday playing with them and now they are nowhere to be found.  Where could they have out them that we can't find then in a two day search?  We don't have any pumpkins to show for it, but at least I got everyone to loom at the camera.  

Soccer!

Benson and Sarah play soccer together.  They are on the Portland Timbers under 6 team.  It is fun, Sarah is good and plays hard.  Benson shows us how fast he is and avoids the ball.  We have fun.  

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy Birthday Daddy!  And good luck on PHD Qualification exams that started on your birthday!  That cake is a cougar on a BYU text book.  The kids put all of the due on the cougar.  

Benson stitches

Benson fell in the bathroom and tore his chin open and we had to go to the ER and get two stitches.  He was a champ and stayed still with just being held (the nurses and doctor expected to have to swaddle him so that he couldn't move.  

He had fun for most of it.  And a few days layer didn't even remember the stitches were there, literally he came and told me there was something funny on his chin and asked if I would wash it off.  They gave him lots of stickers when he was done!
