the dentist

 yesterday, after watching mommy have her teeth cleaned, 
Levi worked up the courage to get in the chair.
Mrs. Terry was very kind to give a VERY thorough explanation of her tools.
 first, she cleaned and polished
 second, she rinsed with her squirt gun and
sucked it out with her vacuum...the vacuum was his favorite
 third, she flossed and counted his teeth
 by the end Levi was very relaxed in the chair.
  
he could not wait to get home to brush his teeth with his new blue
toothbrush and bubble gum toothpaste.

Sunday Morning Dress Up

 
The Lord knew we needed a girl!  
 

Fall Fun

  a little bit of hard work, plus...
 A science lesson...apple blossoms have 5 petals and each apple has 5 seed pockets
Equals, our family's 1st batch of applesauce
 
 
 Pom Pom box!
 
 
Growth spurts call for Nutelly sandwiches before bed :)

 Aunt Mary comes to visit!!
Mary Kathryn not only get her name and curly hair from Aunt Mary, but her joy of laughter.

Marie, officially becomes famous!!
 


Yeah, Daddy!


Josh promised Levi that when he shot the first deer of the season he
would bring it home for us to see. 
 
Levi's first response was, "Yeah, Daddy!  That's a big one!!"
Mary Kathryn said, "Deer, pow-pow."

Levi turns 3 with a Pumpkin Patch Party!!

 This was by far our most fun birthday party to plan for several reasons...
 
Levi was so eager to be my helper. 
 
 
He learned his birth date, Oc-tover 11.
 
 Josh decorated our pumpkin cake.
 
 Levi helped with party ideas, a cupcake decorating station!
 
He was so appreciative...anything "pumpkin" that entered the house he would squeal with excitement, "Is that for my party?!?"
 
 The generosity & hospitality of Trinity UMC was unbelievable!


 
  The relay race was a flop, but the "grabbers" were a hit none the less. 

 
 Everyone enjoyed jumping. 
 
Levi had 2 party requests: cupcakes and juice boxes


 mmmmm!
 



 
 
"Create in me a clean heart, O God." Psalm 51:10
 

 
A sprinkle of fun for the year ahead :)

 We ended our evening with a Pizza Party at Mellow Mushroom with Gigi & Papa, Bella & Bear-Bear, and the Thames.
