It's a whole lot harder to keep up with things when there are two rugrats running around.  OK only one is running around, but they still keep us busy!  Karen's birthday was this month, on the 12th.  Mimi came to visit.  We were glad to see her and grateful for the extra help!  And Bennett is now 4 months old!  Other than that, not so much.  It's finally cooling off here and we're getting ready for fall yardwork!

Here are some more pictures from September.

And a timely post even!  We still haven't settled on a name for the elephant, but the finalists for the naming contest are "Edgar" and "Babar."  Edgar of course continues the alliteration like Fredo the Frog.  A decision to come soon...

And since Karen rarely finds herself in many pictures we post to TH, here's a bonus of the birthday boy with his mother.

See all the Halloween pictures here.

Dauphin Way United Methodist Church has their annual pumpkin patch in full swing.  Henry, Karen and I (and Nana behind the camera) went to go pick out this years pumpkin.  I think we got a good one this year!

More photos from the patch here.

Many more pictures from CB '09 in the Image Gallery!

There was egg-dying:

There was bubble-blowing:

There were big smiles:

There was even time for Mommy to finally give Steve Guttenberg a bath!

Here are a few pictures from Henry and Karen's visit to AR in Feb.

You can be sure I'll add more!
