Firsts

We had a bunch of firsts this fall.  Landon had been looking forward to losing a tooth for over a year now.  He finally had a loose one in the middle of October.  Then one night while we were in the car running errands he just said "I think my tooth fell out".  Sure enough, there it was in his hand.  He'd been wiggling it and eating apples all week knowing it was getting close.

At home getting ready to put his tooth under his pillow.

Here's basically the same picture of Landon only 5 months old showing us his 2 bottom teeth coming in.

 The Tooth Fairy came and brought Landon $2 that were shiny and glittery with fairy dust and left him a note & receipt for his tooth.

The other first we had that very same week, was Keegan finally got his first haircut!  It was more of just a trim.  He had a pretty bad Lou-Do combover going right on the top of his head.  We had them just trim this up and they took about 1/8" off over the rest.  He was excited!

He did a great job sitting still the whole time.

His certificate and lock of hair.

We leave for Illinois tomorrow (Tuesday) night after school, so we will try and get a Halloween post up before Thanksgiving! hah!

Apple Orchard and Pumpkin Patch Visits

We're a little late with these, but here's a few more fall activities we did before Halloween and we had a couple of big "firsts" in October as well.

On a Friday in October Kelsey and Landon were both off of school so I took the day off too and we went to an apple orchard in the afternoon.

The next day we headed to Columbus to meet my parents and sister for the day at a pumpkin patch.

 Keegan loved feeding the goats.  Landon just threw the food on the ground and didn't want them to eat directly out of his hand.

Thanks for the fun weekend!  We'll do another post here quickly to wrap up October.
