We love our baby...

Ruth really loves her baby brother!

Logan Pumpkin Walk

We went up to Logan last Saturday to celebrate the 7 year anniversary of our first date. It was a lot of fun driving around and looking at all our old hangouts. Ruth was very excited to see where she was born and the apartment she lived in for her first two years. Gareth and Ronan both slept through it all. We also were excited to revisit one of our favorite Logan traditions: The Pumpkin Walk. It's a place where a bunch of people put up a bunch of different scenes using pumpkins. Here are some pictures:

Wheeler Farm

We took a day trip to Wheeler Farm last week while Jonesy had a few hours before going back to work. Fun was had by all. We got to pick pumpkins, find our way through a hay maze, ride on a hay ride, drive a tractor and pet a cow.

Funny Pics

Lost nose and bloody tooth....or is it lost tooth and bloody nose?

Ruth lost her 2nd front tooth last week. Hopefully she'll stop losing teeth for a while. The tooth fairy needs time to save up some more quarters!

Gareth did a face plant right into the sidewalk. His nose was bloody and he was very sad. Here he is the next day with scabs. Poor kid.

Trip to the Ranch.

I mentioned in an earlier post that we went for a weekend down near Capitol Reef (a month ago now) with my parents and my sister and brother-in-law and their families. We stayed in my brother-in-law's family's cabin. Here are some pictures of the fun activities:

State Fair

We went to the State Fair a couple weeks ago to see the animals. We had fun but were reminded that Fairs are only WAY fun when you have enough money to ride the rides and eat the yummy fair food. Oh well.. maybe we'll start saving up for next year. Here's some pics:

Ruth and Gareth petting goats with Aunt Audra

Ruth had no fear of petting the cows.

This was a HUGE bull. If I remember right he weighed over 3,300 pounds. Ruth didn't care. She literally grabbed that bull by the horns.

Gareth was pretty timid around the cows. He didn't want to pet them. He was totally fine with petting the toy cow though.

Follow the Leader

Ruth decided she wanted to build a very large tower of sand. It started out with just her but within 10 minutes she had about 10 of the neighborhood children helping her. She kept them motivated by saying things like "good job" and "keep up the good work!" She'll make a great leader someday.

4 months old!

Ronan is 4 months old today! It's amazing how quickly time flies by.

Here's his stats:

Weight: 16.5 lbs--76th percentile

Height: 27.5 inches--99th percentile

Still a big boy!

Already?!?!

Ruth is too young to be doing things like losing teeth. But alas, she did. She is (according to her) "very advanced."
