Sneak Peak

Cade is all ready for trick-or-treating on Saturday. Here's a sneak peak at his roarin' great lion costume...








Who knew lions golfed??

Like his lion friend, Cade is becoming quite the carnivore...or herbivore...or, well, he eats nearly anything and everything. He's particularly fond of his fruit..apples, mandarin oranges, fruit leather, raspberries...you name it, he LOVES it!

I'm not sure if he's going through another growth spurt, but it seems he's always hungry lately. He'll finish his dinner..sometimes not even eating all of it...and then he comes to us and our plates saying "bite peas - bite peas mama - bite peas dada." As you know, it's been a challenge for Cade to consistently say please but this week, he finally mastered saying "peas" instead of always saying "mowe, mowe" (aka more, more). Thank goodness...

Watch for a video of our polite little man coming soon...until then...

...good night.

Row, Row, Row your boat...

It was another wonderful weekend at the Felch casa that went waaaayyy too fast. We were blessed to have Great Grandpa Lech visiting this weekend so we had two family dinners at Grandma and Grandpa Lech's house. On Friday, we had a delicious fish fry...and some "rowing" in Cade's new makeshift "boat" (aka laundry basket), complete with "oars" (aka golf clubs).




Grandma didn't fit quite as easily in the boat...she climbed in to give Cade a demo on the rowing action...we had to snap a photo before answering her pleas for help...ha ha...

Cade stuck to the living room on Saturday at first as well...he wasn't so sure about Great Grandpa. It usually takes him awhile to warm up to those he doesn't see very often. So, he occupied his time hangin' with dad..literally...

He also snuggled with grandpa a bit....


He had fun playing with his "fi-tuck" like "gampa" and "ky-guy"...


And you know there had to be some golf action...

After awhile, Cade warmed up to his Great Grandpa by playing catch. Then we had him cozy up on the couch for a three generation pic..here are Cade and Great Grandpa deep in conversation...


The threesome was all smiles...ha ha...

When it was time to head home, Cade even gave great grandpa two hugs...too bad my camera was slow on the uptake so I only caught the end of the hug...


All and all, another great Fall weekend. We've also been working on some home projects...and by we, I really mean Jon. We installed a tile backsplash in the kitchen and, as we speak, Jon is putting up new doors and trim up in the basement to match the new egress windows going in on Tuesday. The fun never ends around here...watch for pics coming soon!

Good Night, Sleep Tight...

Lately, Cade doesn't want to go to bed. He's clearly sleepy but he just doesn't want us to leave the room...and we're not particularly good at telling this sweet face that it's lights out for good...especially when he is screaming crying.

A little bit of "Moo, Baa, La La La"...
Where is the horsie mama?
Oh, here he is!

Pumpkin Porch

Sorry for being MIA lately...we've been sick at the Felch household and then our computer was "sick"..we couldn't get online to upload photos. Such a tragedy!

We were feeling better by the weekend so we hit the pumpkin patch on Sunday....or to be more accurate the pumpkin porch. As it turns out, the advertised pumpkin patch was nonexistent. Cade still had fun picking out his pumpkin, dancing to the polka music and seeing the mini ponies.
Let's do this...
Not so sure about the "wagon" ride...Peek-a-boo pumpkin sign...I want THIS one!!Hmmm..or maybe this one...and I can use my hand as a club and the pumpkin as a ball...Helping daddy with the final selection...

Did you know there are horses here?!?

Cade was pretty good at calling in the ponies..."nayyyyy"And he calls one in...

Saying "buh bye" to the mini ponies with daddy...

Raspberry Lovin'

As previously mentioned, Cade LOVES his berries..especially raspberries. He could easily eat an entire pint in one sitting. Here is lovin' on his favorite fruit...
