Fall Days
Well..now that Fall is here the kids & I have been doing some festive activities to prepare for Halloween. We closed September by celebrating my Mom's birthday on the 30th. Hope you had a great birthday, Mom! We celebrated with a small family get together and some delicious ice cream cake! We also celebrated my Uncle Jerry's hall of fame induction into DeSales University where he attended which was Allentown College at the time. He got inducted for his Basketball records and achievements. We enjoyed getting together and having a nice dinner. Uncle Jerry gave a great speech when they announced his induction. It was really heart warming for us all to hear how much he appreciated the honor and how he appreciated all of us. He mentioned how I used to attend his games and cheer on the sideline. When I was 2 years old, I was put in his yearbook doing a split with a coke can in my hand! lol It made us laugh when he said my Aunt Sue came to his games so she could join the post game festivities! We really all had a good time and lots of laughs.
As for approaching October, it has been fun but very busy. Friday we went to Styer Orchards in Langhorne with my girlfriend Christina and her 2 kids to pick pumpkins. Sean got 1, Colin picked out a white one, which is really cool and different...i've never seen a white pumpkin before. We also got a few little ones..Sean picked those out for Paulie. Our weekend was filled with a lot of birthday parties. Saturday afternoon we celebrated Gabby's birthday at Windsor Farms. I was really glad that Mom Fell & I didn't get lost going somewhere for once! haha... My brother Kevin came with us so Sean was really excited..they all dressed up as Football players. We went on a Hayride, picked pumpkins then painted them, and the boys fed the goats. The following day we had Kleio's birthday at the same place. They really did enjoy both parties. It was a really cute idea for the kids. I always like doing different things with them. We ended the weekend with my cousin Connor & Nicole's birthday Sunday night. We celebrated at my Mom-mom's the kids played ball out front and we had some good desserts.
Sean's still doing well at soccer. He has been practicing at home, and when Wednesdays come around he's always excited to go to practice and he is thrilled to play in his games on Saturdays. I am hoping this is something that he will stick with. If not then Im sure he'll find another activity he really likes. As long as they are all apart of an after school activity that involves physical work I'm happy. I figure the busier I keep them the less time they have to get in trouble.
Colin is doing so much better at talking now to. He is saying everything, right now he's parroting us a lot but, that's okay he's starting to form sentences a little bit now to. I feel relieved that he has expanded the words he's using. He hasn't been feeling to good this week he had a fever Monday and has been really cranky this week. I'm hoping he'll start feeling better over the weekend.
Paulie is growing and growing. He is so big, and he's definitely outgrown the new baby stages. He is 6 months now which happens to be my favorite age! He shows his personality in different ways. I think this age is great he's starting to do things on his own like holding his bottle, grabbing at toys, and sleeping through the night. I look back and think how did I ever function sleeping 2 hours a night! I'm so glad all of that is over with. I am enjoying him so much more now! He loves to try and talk to us...the other day he said Da-Da and Ba-Ba. He loves the jumperoo, it is a stationery seat with springs in the sides so when he pushes off the bottom of his feet it makes him bounce. It is his favorite thing right now! (Thanks Linda!) I can put him in that thing and he'll be happy in it for at least 20 mins. He also likes his walker to we put him in that and he is into honking the horn. Colin came up to the walker and pushed on the horn and ever since he's been doing that. Paul is such a good baby I am really lucky. Tomorrow I take him and Colin to the doctors for wellness check ups. Paulie was running a fever of 101.5 tonight so I'm hoping him & Colin start feeling better soon! I'll keep everybody updated! Thanks for taking time to read my blog posts.
Happy Birthday this month to; Aunt Sue, Nicole, Connor, Erica, Coley, Baby Kamryn, Gabby and Kleio! Hope you all enjoy your birthdays!!
