The Curtis Family: November 2009

Raspberry Picking with my other mom friends. My friend Sierra opted to leave her daughter at home, I was only just getting brave enough to bring Jadie on such an outing :).

My friend Miriam and I. Her daughter Elizabeth is one week older than Jadie, and is in a pack on her back in this picture-unfortunately not visible.

Because Rusty missed out on the raspberry picking, we decided to go back the next week to do some apple picking this is the hay ride out to the orchard. Note Jadie's love of her snugli-it is the perfect level for her to suck on. No breaks necessary!

Jadie showing off her muscles-I couldn't do that at her age!

So she wasn't interested in being a cow, the snugli was far more interesting to suck on. But really the funniest part of the petting zoo was when a sheep "baahed" at her and she began to cry. Rusty and I had a good laugh. It was a mean scary sheep after all!

Jadie enjoying the fall leaves.

A big thing out here is to go to Cider Mills in the fall season. Fresh cider and homemade doughnuts are hard to beat. We visited one and took some cool pictures with their decor.

Halloween time! Jadie was a ladybug for her first halloween. Fitting since her nickname is Jadiebug :). The first one is Rusty with Jadie and some friends at the Halloween mutual. Rusty is the Priest Quorum Assistant Advisor (teaches on Sundays) and I am now the Laurel advisor. This means family mutual every week!

This is at our ward "trunk or treat" that was moved into the building due to rain. Yes we have had a baby boom in this ward, with another wave on its way. It's a lot of fun to have so many other moms with babies to talk to and relate to.

From left to right we have Elizabeth Franson (baby in the pack from the raspberry pic.) who is a week older than Jadie, Camilla Kesler (flower baby from the picture right above this one) who is a week younger than Jadie, and Jadie! It was so fun to get a picture of these three girls together! What cuties!
