Well, I've avoided the blog long enough. I guess it's easier to post the happy things than the really tough and painful. We lost our sweet baby boy, Jeremiah James, on October 12th. Things have been an emotional roller coaster pretty much the entire month of October, but we're hoping November will bring better days. It really is amazing and scary how quickly life can change. We think of and miss Jeremiah every day and wish he were here with us, but we know he is our angel in heaven that we will hold again one day.
In the midst of the tears and pain we've experienced this month, we've captured many smiling moments with family as well, and of course those are the memories we want to see in the pictures. So here are some of the fun memories that we'll hold on to:
Cox Farms with the boys! They loved the hay ride, slides, animals, play areas, maze, etc. What a fun day!
My dad was in town on a business trip and extended his stay when the uncertainty began. We enjoyed a day at Old Mine Ranch while he was here.
The kids' cousins, aunt, uncle, grandma, and grandpa came for a visit in mid-October. We enjoyed a day at the zoo together!
As well as a day downtown... we did some walking and sight-seeing and also went to the Air and Space Museum.
The kids all really enjoyed playing together!
Last weekend we went to the pumpkin patch to find our carving pumpkin! I insist on going to a "real" pumpkin patch every year to pick our pumpkin out of an actual pumpkin patch :)
Alex was really into finding the BIGGEST pumpkin to carve!
Another fun day with the kids :)
