My little pumpkins

Before Jimmy left for two weeks in Washington we took the boys to the local pumpkin patch. We had so much fun!!! I was still a little under the weather so we didn't stay as long as we would have liked. Hunter could have spent all day and night there. Holden was just along for the ride, but he did enjoy eating all the sticks he could find.

Jimmy, me and the boys took a trip to ND and MN for my grandmas 80th birthday and my grandparents 60th wedding anniversary. We all had such a great time. Hunter and Holden had a blast playing with cousins and grandmas and grandpas and great aunties and uncles. It was so nice to see my family. I miss them so much. Jimmy was a tropper and drove the whole way there (32 hours total) and back. He was a great babysitter so me and my mom and sister could get things done for the party. Thanks hunny!! I can't wait to go back again, but i think next time we are going to try the train and see how that goes.

Do they look alike????

So i've been told that Hunter and Holden look so much alike and i've also been told that they don't look alike at all. Just wondering what you all think. I think they look alike, but only a little. They both have the same Holden family ears and for some odd reason they both have blonde hair. I hoping it will darken up soon. I must say i have some pretty handsome little guys.

Holdens 6 months check up

Holden went into the dr. for his six month check up today and is doing wonderful. He has gained about three pounds and has grown 2 inches since his four month check up. He is by far our BIG baby, but i'm sure he's just normal to most people. I can't wait for the next six months with this little man. Holden has also start to crawl a little so now the baby gates must go up and everything must come off the floor.

Playing around

I was looking at Echos blog and she mentioned picnik to edit your photos. I love it. I'm not sure how to use everything yet, but i have a feeling this is going to be so much fun.

Salsa

This is the beginning of our first salsa canning experience.


Jimmy did and awesome job helping chop all the ingredients.



All the tomatos and oninons were fresh from our garden.




This is right before we started to cook the salsa. It's so yummy just to eat it this way.

Our finished product. We thought it was pretty good for our first try. I think next time we'll change the recipe up a little and make it a little spicier.

Holden is 6 months old today.
