Christmas tree

This is going to be one fun Christmas!  Heisman is just so excited about everything... lights, ornaments, snowmen, Santa, presents... :)  He really enjoyed putting the ornaments on the tree.  He put them all on and took them off and put them back on again at least twice.  He is such a helper these days too!

Happy Thanksgiving

Heisman gets to do a lot of fun crafts at daycare and here are a few examples....

~Heisman says he's thankful for his mommy, blankey, cars and daddy :)



First snow

A few weeks ago we got our first snow and Heisman was so excited!  First he said that it looked like fun and asked if he could play in it and then he said, "Mom, Christmas!"  Super cute!!  We did manage to go out after school and play in what was left of the snow.  I think we will be out a lot this winter :)

Heisman is usually pretty good about going to bed but every once in awhile he tries to procrastinate by asking for a drink, story, toy, etc... This is what he said the other night....
Heisman:  Wait Mom.  I went to bed last night.
Me:  So you don't need to go to bed tonight?
Heisman:  No, I'm good :)
Silly kid!!!!

Happy Halloween

We had a great time trick or treating this year!  Heisman's cousins (Carter, Caden and Cale) came to our house so we all went together.  Heisman loves being with his cousins and tried to keep up with them all night.  He probably only did an hour of trick or treating and ate way too much candy!!!

Parade

The big Band Day Parade was the first weekend in October and Heisman had a blast!  He was a little slow at picking up the candy the first few minutes of  the parade but once he figured it out, watch out!  He danced and clapped for the bands and definitely worked his cuteness to get extra candy :)

His most common phrase lately is "What are you doing?"  He says it all the time!  If I leave the room he yells out, "Mom what are you doing?" When we're driving in the car, making supper, doing laundry, etc.... It's also kind of funny to hear other phrases that I know he's picked up from me and Tony and we didn't even realize we said them that often until he started saying them too.

Last week we went to the open house at the fire station and he got to sit in the firetrucks, which he thought was really cool.

Pumpkin patch

Heisman and I visited the Center Grove Orchard a few weeks ago and had a lot of fun!!!

Loves the corn pool!

Jumping pillow

Getting some air

He insisted on going down this slide by himself and it was really fast!  He got a little turned around but still went down a few more times on his own.

Tractor hayride

He had a great time but I think he was tired of me taking his picture all morning.... Seriously Mom!

Go Hawkeyes!

Even though Iowa lost the big game, I still wanted to post these great pictures!!!
