Another visit with Grammy!

We were lucky enough to have grammy come back and visit us again. Scott went to another conference in Flagstaff, so we enjoyed the company and the help! We showed Grammy the full fall Cache Valley experience. She also got to experience Ramsey started to put 2 words together. Here are some examples: Garbage can, Garbage truck, dragon fly, apple sauce, Daddy's dirt, Grammy's tea, more juice, etc.

Here we are at the Western Heritage Center where there was cow milking, goats, corn husk dolls, broom making, corn mazes, and best of all the train rides. Ramsey enjoyed the train ride the most - I think we rode it about 6 times.



And then we went in to check out the corn maze:

We also took two fall hikes. This is called cold water lake. It is a short hike in the Wellsville Mountains. We hiked up to enjoy the fall colors and have some lunch at the lake. We also did our annual cider pressing with the Waterfalls and Dowds. Ramsey was really into all the apples. We found all the apples that he would take a bite out of and put back in the bin when we were picking.

Pumpkins!

Here is Ramsey admiring some pumpkins at the Western Heritage Center. He went for a 2 yr birthday party for his friend Ivy. There were train rides, pony rides, and wagon rides. Ramsey enjoyed the train, and wasn't willing to try to the pony ride.
He has been really obsessed with pumpkins for the past week. I bought one to cook and he got so upset when it was gone, that we had to take him to the store to buy his own little pumpkin. He now carries it around the house with him repeating "pumpkin" over and over.

18 Month Update

This is Ramsey with his sucker after his 18 month doctor visit. It was the last time for vaccinations until he goes to school. He weighed in at 23 pounds and 32 inches. Ramsey impressed the pediatrician with his knowledge of all the letters of the alphabet and numbers 1 to 10.
Sitting at the wheel of the car is probably Ramsey's favorite activity second to helping pick up the dog poop. This can provide hours of fun turning all the dials and pretending to honk the horn (if you're willing to sit out there). The other favorite activity of the month has been putting all the couch cushions on the floor and jumping on them.
