Monkey Joe's

We took Olivia to Monkey Joe's today for the first time. It was a pretty cool place. Same concept as Chuck E. Cheese but with big bouncing playgrounds. Sean, Olivia, Beau and my dad were all wearing their Steeler clothes and the guy at the entrance let us in for free because of that. We spent almost two and a half hours there and didn't spend a cent!

Beau had his 4 month appointment this past week too. He's now 16 lbs. 7 ounces. He is a BIG boy!! He got some shots too which was hard. One minute he was smiling and laughing at the nurses and then they shove the needles in both of his legs and he started screaming. It made me tear up a little. I forgot how hard that was to watch. It didn't take him long to recover though.

I don't have too much to write about today but I just wanted to put up some new pictures because I got some goods ones this weekend. Oh - and I think Beau is going to be a thumbsucker. Just like Uncle Scot:)

September

I haven't posted since August so I thought I would just call this one September. I can't think of a good title tonight for some reason. I just noticed on Facebook that Caity was wondering why it's been so long since I posted some pictures so I thought I should maybe add some recent ones. Sorry!!

Olivia started at her new dance place last Saturday. It's a really nice place - a little more formal than her other one. I didn't get any pictures of her in her class but I took some in the changing room. They turned out kind of neat with the mirrors.

Beau will be 4 months old on Tuesday and he also has his dr. appt. that day also. I think he has to get some more shots. I'm not looking forward to that. He's talking A LOT and he also can roll over now. He's also been drooling like a fiend so I'm pretty sure he'll be getting some teeth any day now.

I never did post about Labor Day weekend but we took our first camping trip with my in-laws then. We bought a camper in July and that was the first time we got to use it. Weekends over the summer were busy with Olivia's dance and I think I was a little hesitant to take Beau while he was so young. They both did great though. My parents are coming down this weekend and we are going to go again. We found a really nice family oriented campground in Asheboro. It takes about 45 minutes to get there which isn't too bad. They have a swimming pool and lots of activities for the kids. They are open year round too.

By the way, the picture of Olivia in the "blue shorts" is actually her wearing Beau's 0-3 month pants. She came out of the room wearing them yesterday saying "look mommy I'm wearing Beau's pants!". She's silly. They actually look like they could be her shorts!
