October in Review

It's been a very long time since I've posted a blog. There's a good reason for that too...we'll there's a reason. We have had the plague. Yup, that's right Alex, Asher and I have all been sick off and on for a month. There have been a myriad of over the counter and prescription drugs for the past 4 weeks and as a result I haven't gotten a whole lot extra accomplished. I've mostly just tried to keep the sick comfortable and nurse my own sinus infection. Only Seth has been spared the month of illness, Praise Jesus for that.

So now, I'll try to catch you up on the month of October with the exception of Halloween and our trip to the Cider Mill. I'll post those events separately.

We've had a lot of fun playtime at home in jammies since we were too contagious to go out.

So we wore buckets on our head.

One sad Sunday morning when we were missing Sunday School we painted toast. We'll have to do this again as it was a real hoot!

The menu for Alex's restaurant "Eatsa Eatsa Everywhere" (I can't get it to flip upright for some reason)

We've been working our way through the alphabet with "Alphabet Days." Here are Alex and Mrs Kris on "B" Day with their "Blue Bread" Pizza.Bubble Beard

Eating spaghetti and giving Mr Paul (his favorite) high fives!

Intently watching daddy mow.

The fort we built on "F" Day

Naked baby

Asher's favorite pastime...climbing things!

Pumpkin painting!

Alex's work of art.

We got a visit from one of Mama's favorite people ever! Jill! The kids were in love with her and Alex thought she only came to see him!

Spaghetti dinner!

We were visited by this beauty and Asher wasn't sure what to do with her...

Learning to drive

One of my favorite moments this month I don't have a picture for, but Alex asked Jesus into his heart. It was one of the most precious moments for a Mama's heart ever. The next night he asked his daddy if he could ask Jesus into Asher's heart. He was concerned about him getting to Heaven with us! Such an awesome, tenderhearted boy!
