The Last Leaves of 2009

We just never had time this fall to make it to the park and get some fall pictures so Jared and I trotted out to the front yard for a few quick pics last month (yes, I am just getting around to publishing them:) He never got off the blanket because he hated how the grass felt. He kept leaning over to touch it and then jerk his hand back like it bit him. He did however try to steal my camera as you will see :)

Jared's first haircut

Jared had his first haircut on October 6th! A friend of ours, Jessica, came over to cut my hair and did his while she was here. Jared wasn't even 9 months old yet but he had this really long comb-over on top that just had to go!

See how long it was!

He was soooo good the entire time :)

Daddy had to hold his face because he kept wanting to see what was going on back there.

Jared's first Mission Conference!

Our Little Monster's Morning Routine

No matter how many times you clean up the toys, Jared knows how he likes them. He is crawling all over the place. This will give you a little laugh as you consider Jared's morning routine. Every morning, our house becomes Jared's play place!

Jared's First Encounter with a Closed Box of Hostess Cakes

What does a lilttle boy do when he see's a brand new, unopened box of Little Debbie Cakes? Well...we don't know about the rest of the world, but we now know what Jared does!
