'Tis the Season

Ok, so I 've been having issues with getting my photos uploaded, which is why I haven't had an update since Halloween. SAD! Munch has had quite a few Christmas outfits... the fancy ones I'm saving for the Christmas card, but here's a few of the casual ones. I'm seriously trying to take pictures of every single one. Ha!

First Halloween!

Okay, so obviously I couldn't take munch trick or treating since everyone would know that the candy would be for Daddy and Mommy. Lame. Anyway, we went with some friends to a harvest festival put on by our church. It was fun, there was candy, rides, games, etc, but most of all, just fun to see the costumes and to have a night out to socialize. Munch was so good, and SO cute. Although, one lady did come up to me and asked "How old is he?" I said, "SHE is 9 months" Seriously, just because her glittery fairy costume was blue??! If a girl was wearing a blue princess dress, does that mean she has to look like a boy??! Weird. Anyway, it was fun. Can't wait to do my Halloween scrapbook page. Yes, I'm a nerd.

Costume

Here's Munch's hand made Halloween costume made by Grandma Debbie. She will be a fairy princess. (fitting). She was so darn cute when we put it on. More pictures to follow with mommy and daddy = )

9 Month Check Up

We took Munch to her 9 month Dr.'s appointment about a week ago, and here's her stats:

19 lbs. (50th percentile)
28.5 in. (50th percentile)
I can't remember her head circumference, but it was small, she was only in the 25th percentile for that.

She has had two colds now, seriously one on top of the other, she has a fungus similar to jock itch I'm told on her little bottom, and two teeth have popped through at once. She's kinda a mess, but still smiley and happy amazingly. This just in, she is what we like to call "army crawling". She totally pulls herself across the carpet, but on her stomach still. She's taken one normal crawl "step" though. She's gonna be EVERYWHERE real soon!!! = )

Punkin' Patch!

Okay, so I know I just posted pics from the apple orchard, but a friend and I just went to the pumpkin patch too (thanks Heather, loved it!). We tortured our babies by keeping them in the heat, just for the sake of scrapbooking. I'll be sure and post pics of my pumpkin patch scrapbook page later... it was just TOO cute though!!! = )

Fall!

Abbie, Nate, me, and our friends, John and Erin, went to a GORGEOUS apple/pumpkin/raspberry, etc. picking spot. Actually, there were several different spots. It was beautiful out. We had apples, made our own cider, and had cinnamon mini-doughnuts.... I threw out my caloric intake for the day. Abigail had a blast. She loved all the colors.

YUM!

Well, the biggest news on the homefront is that Munch had her first "real" food yesterday. We gave her a cracker. She will definitely need some more practice, as she had NO idea what to do with it. She made funny faces to say the least. She finally started sucking on it, and it got all nice and soggy. She ate about half of it. She likes to play with her food more than actually eating it. Other news: apparently she loves to surf the net... and we got her all decked out for the pool and went swimming. She kept trying to "grab" the water and bubbles. Fun. She will be 8 months this Thursday, which is extremely hard to believe. She is so much fun!!
