We went to the pumpkin patch yesterday!

We met Kristina and Tessa so that the cousins could have fun together just like last year. Caleb retained all of last years lessons from Papa Dahl. He rolled pumpkins, patted them, tried to pick them up, and kicked them like he was testing used cars. The hay ride was fun. And the kids picked beans for a craft project. The cutest occurrence of all was when we were in the pumpkin patch and Caleb wanted Tessa to come with him. He reached over and took her hand and walked, pull, marched, and drug her through the patch over vines, weeds and pumpkins. It was soooo cute, Kristina and I could just look at each other and smile. Overall it was a good day, tiring but worth missing a nap over. Afterwards, we went to Grammy's for lunch. Caleb thought it a funny game to feed Grandpa about 20 little tomatoes! It was funny, because Caleb has such dirty little fingers!



Caleb likes frogs. He was introduced to them by daddy when they were on a walk and again when they find them in the yard. Just a couple days ago, Caleb found one in our backyard and asked Mike to put it on his arm, then his shoulder and it went on from there. I finally got pictures...



Although Joshua is quite small and there isn't always much to write about him, there are a few things to note. We have gone back to swaddling him, tightly I might add. He sleeps more securely and less restless. I still have to lay him on a pillow so that his head is inclined, but he sleeps much better.
The other thing to mention... I think that Josh has a tongue shaped like Grandpa Dahl. It's a little rectangular shaped in the front; Josh frequently sticks his tongue out which is why I'd even pay attention. Grandpa doesn't think that having his short tongue is such a blessing, so I guess Caleb having a longer one with more of a point like is mommy is better.
And lastly, I went to my doctor and happen to weigh Josh. My chubby buddy is 13!!!!! POUNDS!!!! No wonder he feels heavy. Here is a cute picture, him and his chubby cuteness.

Hope you've enjoyed the pictures... bye for now.
