Last weekend we made a trip to the farm. It was the furthest I have attempted to take Gabe alone, and I say we passed with flying colors! Well, he did. I forgot half of the stuff I brought, but luckily we are headed back that direction for Thanksgiving.

Nana and Papa's was a busy place. Molly and the girls stayed for the weekend, and Scott, Tina and Baby McKenna came to visit on Saturday. Grandpa Mohr also came for lunch! We had a fun day!

My Boys

Littlest Cyclone!

On Saturday, Gabe went to his first Cyclone Football Game! Start 'em Early, Raise 'em Right :)

We have went to Ames to tailgate a few times this season, but never attempted to go to the game before. It was a lot of fun and he was a great fan...well he was great for Mama. He slept through the whole game, so I'm not sure how good of a "fan" that makes him. Although our Cyclones didn't get the win, we were blessed with AmAZiNg weather for the game and a great day for Gabe!

Like I said earlier, we had tailgated for a few games earlier in the season. Here are some leftover pictures from some of those earlier days. We love our Cyclones!

Gratitude

Happy November! With so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving season, I thought I would take part in the 30 Day "Gratitude" photo challenge!  It's the little things in life that make each day special, and it will be great to take a moment each day show some of my life's many blessings! Enjoy!

#1 - Favorite Food - (Decaf) Pumpkin Spice Coffee. I can't afford Starbucks every day, so I'm very thankful that Coffee Mate has seasonal flavors of creamer! And although it is decaf, it helps this mama feel a little more awake in the morning... it's all mental, but I'm ok with that :) Pair my coffee with a trail mix bar, and my morning is set! I must admit that this is not exactly my "favorite" food, but it makes my life happier, so I think it fits :)

#2 - Smile - GABE! Ok, ok, I know that this is not a picture of a smile, mostly because he hasn't truly smiled yet, BUT we are working on it! He is really close (I think) so I'm thankful for my little bundle that makes me do really weird smiles in hopes I can get one out of him :) 

More to come...

Happy Halloween!

We had a great 1st Halloween! Tuesday night was Trick or Treating night in Ankeny, and although we didn't go out, we had fun handing out candy. I had a very helpful skeleton wishing all the kids a spooktacular Halloween! 

We had some very cute Witches come and visit! It was fun to see them in costume and steal some of their candy :)

One Month

On Saturday, Gabe turned one month! We celebrated by tailgating in Ames and cheering on our Cyclones. It was a great day... pictures to come! But for now, here's Gabe at one month! He sure is growing!!!!

L.O.V.E.

I am definitely in love with my little man. We had a mini photo shoot today to capture all of his cuteness!! (and let me play with my camera) Enjoy!
