We carved a pumpkin for family home evening last night. It sure was messy but so worth it!

On Saturday we went to Berry Patch Farms in Woodstock, GA. It was freezing outside but we braved the cold weather and had a great time. Noah's Grandaddy and Granmommy joined us. We went on a hayride, played in a pumpkin patch, saw some animals on the farm, and played on a tractor. It was a lot of fun despite the cold!




Noah had his first haircut last night. It was time; some of his hairs were about 3 or 4 inches long if you pulled them straight up.
Getting ready for the big event!
Some of those long hairs

The towel and clothespin are secure so we're ready to cut!

He wasn't so sure about the clippers.

Ta da! Here's our new little man.

Last week we fed Noah green beans for the first time. He didn't care for them. After I tasted them, I didn't care for them either. I'm all about giving him lots of vegetables, but these were pretty disgusting. Here are some pics of him with more beans on his face than in his mouth.

Here are some recent pictures of our family and Noah. Noah was 6 months in these pictures. He is now 7 and 1/2 months old, so sorry for not posting these sooner. The pictures were taken by our friends Megan Metcalf and Megan Davidson. They did an awesome job! They are starting their own photography business and I would highly recommend them. I love how our pictures turned out!




Well, Noah finally did it. He crawled for the first time on Saturday! Here are some videos from Saturday and then from yesterday. These are for you, Grammy!
Noah wants to crawl so badly! He gets up on his hands and knees and rocks and then falls on his stomach. He usually ends up moving backwards or trying to sit up from his side. He's so funny! Yesterday he made his way over to the coffee table and was using it to help him crawl around. He looked so cute so I had to take some pictures. This kid is growing up so fast!
Daniel's stepmom, Gail, owns an alpaca and helps take care of other alpacas on a farm in Blairsville, GA. Gail makes beautiful hats and other things from the alpaca fur. We were up by the farm yesterday and asked Gail to give us a tour. This was the first time I had ever seen an alpaca in real life. They are so cute! I especially love the hair on the top of their heads. Here are some pictures from the farm:
