November 2009 Ohio Grandparents Visit

Mom and dad came to visit from Ohio this past weekend. Actually, mom flew in last week on Tuesday to spend a few days with Kent by herself while I went to work. She enjoyed every minute with her little grandson. Here are a few pics from our time together.

Dad flew down on Friday and enjoyed the weekend with us. The weather was great, and we all just enjoyed watching Kent do all of his "tricks." He turns 5 months old tomorrow, crazy! Right now, he can put his feet in his mouth & curl up in a ball when laying on his back. He can also reach out & grab toys that are put in front of him. So he is getting more into toys & small rattles now. And, of course, everything has to go straight into his mouth where he drools all over it.

Here is a pic of Kent in his Sunday school class at church. I finally got around to bringing my camera to church and snapped a quick pic for the mems. It will be fun someday when Kent & all of his friends (Kyle, Addison, Nate, & Mackenzie) are older and we can look back at this picture. Such a sweet group of babies!

Here is documentation of Kent's trick of putting his foot in his mouth. Very talented, huh? :)

I'm thankful that mom & dad are taking the time to see Kent as he develops throughout his first year. What a blessing when they come to visit.

Happy Halloween!

Happy late Halloween, everyone! I can't believe it's already November...where did October go? Time has been flying by, at a very scary pace.

This past week everyone in transplant at work dressed up in 50's/Grease costumes for the annual fall festival. Since I was in Grease in high school and already had a pink ladies jacket left over from my costume in high school, I had a pretty easy costume. Kent wore a pumpkin onesie to daycare the day of the fall festival.

On Saturday night, we had the grandparents (yes, that is you Billy & Paula), aunt & uncle, and great-grandparents over to see Kent in his costume. He was a pea pod, which is highly appropriate for the child of a dietitian! (Thanks again, Jen, for letting me borrow this costume!)

We enjoyed a yummy fall meal of beef vegetable soup, cornbread, and pumpkin pie...yum! Then we played games while handing out candy to trick-or-treaters that came by our place that night.

We didn't get adventurous & go out around the neighborhood this year, but I have a feeling it will be different in the years to come as Kent gets older & figures out how much he likes candy.
