Odds and Ends

We have had an incredible fall this year in Colorado. We are taking advantage of living so close to open space paths with bike rides and runs in the early evening. Tonight I (Laura) took Elijah on a bike ride while I ran with Micah in the jogging stroller. Elijah is getting pretty comfortable on his bike and especially loves speed. Tonight, he nearly ended up in Ralston Creek. Good thing for him he came away with 2 fat lips and some minor cuts.

Yep, Chloe is missing a few teeth. The dentist pulled a couple in order to make room for her adult teeth that are coming in behind her baby teeth. She is a little bummed because she liked having several rows of teeth, much like a shark.

We took a trip to a pumpkin patch this year, after missing last year due to the soon coming arrival of baby boy.

This year they had sweet floppy eared rabbits.

And goats, Micah is too busy petting Elijah to be interested in those silly animals.

And baby goats, my favorite.

Elijah really likes the goats too!

And finally, a picture of our newest edition, a black widow spider. I'd like this thing to be gone but Ben keeps feeding it.
