October festivities begin with a very, very cold trip to the pumpkin farm in Rockmart. We ventured out one Friday morning to visit the pumpkins and the animals. Malachi loved petting the cows. He was getting frustrated with us for not letting him get in the cage with the chickens. He will thank us one day for not letting him. Needless to say, Marc and I were done about 15 minutes into it. It was soooo cold! We had fun though.My girlfriend and I decided to match our kids this year. Lord Vader and Queen Amidala were so cute! I am sure next year they will be wanting to pick out there own costumes, which won't be as much fun. We really had fun dressing them up. They did not have as much fun. Ha! We took them to the Halloween church function. It was rainy and cold so we went to Waffle House after to warm up. The ladies at Waffle House gave Malachi a waffle instead of candy, ha. Graceland goes Hollywood was a BLAST! We had so much fun dressing up with our friends. Marc and Josh were dumb and dumber. Jenni, Krista, and I dressed up as the Power Puff Girls. Adam was our creator/professor. This was the best Halloween yet. Not sure how we are going to top this one!

Beach trip #2...Perdido Key, FL
Our second trip we went with the Plimpton family to Perdido Key, FL. Grandma and Papa John's beach house. Malachi loves the ocean. He has absolutely no fear when it comes to getting in the water. He actually wants to swim by himself. He gets frustrated when you try to hold his hand to make sure that he does no fall down from the waves! We had a great week with my family. Mom cooked every night. Our week included shrimp, crab, and fillet minion...YUM! Mom also took me shopping for my birthday.

5 years
Last night we went on the General Jackson Showboat. I takes you down the Cumberland river. It typically goes right through downtown Nashville, but the water level was so high that we could not get under the bridge to make it downtown. Marc was really bummed about not seeing the lights of downtown. I have to admit I was too. It was really nice, but really long. 3 hours. We haven't seen any stars yet. Haha, I will let you know if we do.

Rain, rain, go away...
Well, last year we prayed for rain. I think God heard us! This was the last tornado that came through. It just brushed right by us. I think that it eventually touched down in Cartersville somewhere on Grassdale Rd. Every time there is a tornado warning we go over to mom's house and get in the basement. Marc stays upstairs watching the tv. Waiting for the weather man to give the exact countdown. It is funny to me that now we can know exactly when one is going to hit. I know that we can usually count on a call from Marc's dad, Dennis to forewarn us about the weather. On this certain day he was in the bed with a migraine :(.

First Beach Trip 2009
About two weeks ago Jenni and I drug our kids down to the beach to enjoy the absolutely fabulous weather. It was sooooo nice! 80 degrees with the slightest little breeze, it really was perfect. If it weren't for the church kid sale I'm sure that we would have stayed a few more days. Malachi enjoyed his pool, even if he had a 104.7 temp the day before. Poor kid. Apparently he had the flu, but that didn't stop us from having a good time. He thinks sand is food, which is funny. I had to stop him from eating too much. Jenni and I were just glad to get away for a few days and enjoy the beach!

Cosette is finally here!
I got to witness my second live birth on Friday. There is nothing like watching a baby being born. It is so amazing to me. What is more amazing is how well Jenni did...8lbs 14oz and she only pushed for 21 minutes! Cosette is healthy, beautiful, and already sleeping longer through the night than Malachi does at 8 months. Lets just say that I am going to do things much differently on night time feedings with my next baby. On a happy note, Malachi is crawling now. Last night Malachi and I were playing in his play room. I was on one side of the room and he was on the other. He just got up on all fours and crawled across the room like he had been doing it forever. Crazy kid. He has been laying flat on his belly for the past few months just looking like superman, I thought he was never going to crawl. I guess it is time to put the baby gates up. I have not been looking forward to the running around after my kid stage. It is fun to watch them grow up and learn new things though.
