Playing in leaves

Yesterday Josh and I played outside for a while (in the COLD!!!) He was being particularly adorable (considering that most of the day he was grumpy...) so I ran inside and got the camera and got some adorable shots.




Being tickled in the leaves.






Taking a breather.



Posing for mama.



Playing in the sandbox:



I don't know why I like this one so much. He has a very serious look on his face.



Funny face when mama says "Don't eat dirt!"

The Fire Station

Friday night our town's fire department held an open house. Apparently they do every year during Fire Safety Week. We heard about it because Dave plays softball with 3/4 of the Fire Dept, heard that they were giving rides on a fire truck, games, etc... So we went and Josh had a blast!


"Driving" a fire truck.


More "driving". This is heaven to Josh!


As usual, he doesn't look at the camera all that much lately, but I thought this was a cute one. Every time the fire truck went by (they would give kids a couple trips around the parking lot) Josh would get all excited and screech "Fire Truck!"


All evening Josh was doing something funky with his tongue. Here's him in his fire hat, which he made me wear most of the evening.

Apple picking!

Yes, I am late with these... I only did one measly post in September! It's horrible, however Josh has not been cooperating with looking at the camera. And posts without pictures are not so much fun.

Anyhow - "Aunta B" visited a couple weekends ago and we went apple-picking in Jefferson. Here are some highlights of our adventure:



He looks like he's pooping, but he wasn't! I think he was overwhelmed... or this might have been when he spotted the tractor that would take us for a hay ride to the orchard.

Seriously enjoying one of about six apples.

The highlight of the day - DRIVING the old, broken down tractor.


In other news, we went to Greg and Mindy's wedding over the weekend. So happy for them--they are just adorable. Uncle Dan was the Best Man, and (drumroll please) CUT HIS HAIR!!!!! Wow, Greg and Mindy, he must REALLY like you, because he wouldn't cut his hair for the Bartlett/Perry wedding...
