It's October!!! I can hardly believe how fast the time is passing by. It makes me so happy, but at the same time, I wouldn't mind if it slowed down! This month is jammed pack with fun things for us to do and several birthdays as well. We had fun at one birthday celebration today and have another next Saturday plus my two this month! I know I have said before, but I am having such a hard time knowing that mine are turning 2 and 3 in a matter of weeks. I think back to just 3 short years ago when I was preparing to be a "Momma" and now I am a "Momma" to 2!!! Just like that...what a blessing and I so often feel so underserving for the life that I have, for their health, their happiness, and LOVE! I am so thankful...so happy...so humbled.
Only 18 more days until we get to see familiar faces of family and friends again! The boys will be so happy to squeeze you all and I'm sure you the same. I can't imagine how fast the week will pass and how hard it will be to see everyone we would like to see, but we will do our best. Who knows when we will be back?!
Little Anderson is still holding strong with no paci and is talking SO much more. It is rather difficult to make out what he is saying, but easier for me than Mark since he isn't home as much during the day. It's really cute though or to me, at least! Everything is milk (even if it is water), booo-yahhh is a favorite phrase, working on colors, and aggravating his brother is a hobby!
Mark is doing well. Still loves his job. All of the CA-1's had dinner together Saturday night. It's nice to know that they all don't mind being together even while off. Not many have kids, so ours get spoiled by the female residents! They shared with me that night that Mark was the "HEAD CA-1!" Nope, it was not voted on, he just appointed himself that position and therefore, refers to himself as that, often!! Only Mark....
In regards to my previous post, my friend did lose her baby, but is doing well. I'm thankful God put us together this year, so that each of us would have someone to lean on in times like these. None of her family knew/know so she didn't have them.
The weather finally cooled off today. Bently has been waiting on it so that he could wear his boots and jeans! We are enjoying it, but they aren't used to it. We had to come back from a walk this morning because they were too cold. It's been a good past week and hopefully things will stay bright. I'll share a few pictures from the weekend soon.

Sweet boy loves reading his Bible now days. |

Grabbed a picture at school of him digging in a pumpkin! |
 |
Our garden that is finally flourishing. The peppers added to a tasty batch of guacamole this week! |
 |
This is how I found them one night this week. I am thinking this must be what life is like at the camp...with guys! |
 |
We got BOOOOO'D for Halloween and he was pretty excited about the treats that were left! |
 |
We took Wednesday morning and had donuts with Daddy before he had to be at work. Both boys at the whole thing and wanted more, but the answer was NO. Enough sugar for this mom to handle in one day. ;) |
 |
Such a poser...he wanted me to take this picture! |
 |
They got mail Thursday and these fun Halloween cups filled with candy corn were in there! |
 |
Thanks again, we love them! |
 |
Some of the pumpkins they painted the other day.
Love and hugs to you all! |
