Fall has arrived!

This week has been so pretty with the fall colors and falling leaves that JH and I took advantage of it and had some fall fun. He loved playing in the leaves and was a good sport with posing for pictures too! Even though our fall foilage doesn't last long, it is so worth spending a good afternoon playing outside in it.

You Can Call Us The Eicher Farm

We have another addition to our family..a new puppy. It is an English bulldog/boxer. Lloyd brought him home for John Huston to have his own puppy. I was not thrilled about having another outside dog, since we already have a black lab and two cats plus Buster (inside). But he could not pass up the offer since this puppy was kin to Buster. John Huston loves to pick him up and drop him off all sorts of places. Also he loves to go get his food and put it in his bowl. And since our most recent additions to the family are names of Auburn (Tommy and Tubby) then we have named him CAM :)

Halloween 2010

Let Halloween Weekend begin...

On Saturday night we went to Southern Academy's Halloween Carnival. On the way, we had to stop for trick or treating at the 'Boosards' and MeMe & Pop's house.


I think I'll just stay here with Pop and eat candy

No Santa! Wrong holiday!!

Only 1/4 of the year left!

Until our little boy is 2 years old! John Huston has really transformed into a little boy this past month. He has been going to the potty at least twice a day now since the week he turned 20 months and then last week he has done the "diry" deed at least three times now! We are such proud parents. I had bought him his own little singing potty to use and now he loves to put his little boy seat on the real toilet to go. With the exception of him using almost a whole roll of toliet tissue to pretend, I think this is really great!


He is saying lots of short sentences now, such as, "There we go" or "Here it is" and knows what it means. The best one is "War Eagle" as he throws that arm in the air as he says it. We have been doing a lot of War Eagles this season so he has lots of practice!



We have been to CHOM for their Pumpkin Patch special and their Halloween Spooktacular events this month. Also we went pumpkin patch picking after his flu shot the beginning of this month. See the posts below...

Pumpkin Picking

This year we went to St. Matthias Pumpkin Patch on Skyland Boulevard to pick out our pumpkins for yard decorations. John Huston had a blast with the pumpkin picking...

Pumpkin Patch at CHOM

We took John Huston to the Children's Hand on Museum for what was advertised for Pumpkin Patch Madness. Even though it was not what it was made out to be, John Huston still had a blast playing. Here are a few shots of the funness!
