My Pumpkins

My sweet little pumpkins really look forward to going to the pumpkin patch each year! They love checking out all the different size pumpkins and looking for the big giant ones and the teeny tiny ones.  They even love to pose with said pumpkins.  So we have A LOT of pictures to share this year of our time at the pumpkin patch!



 

Much fun in the hay maze!! There is a stone alligator, known as "tick tock crock" to our boys, located right at the end of this hay maze.  This reptile is want Brant is eyeballing with uncertainty. They were a little nervous to come to the end of the maze as the creature was waiting for them.

 

Brant was happy to pose with the pumpkin librarian, but little brother felt a bit nervous about this creation.

 

Making a funny face when looking at the pumpkin bee. (See next photo)

 

Brant and I managed to talk him into it...

 

 

Oh my big sweet boy! I am so proud of this kind-hearted little guy!

I love the way Beckett is looking up to his brother in this picture. Brant means the world to Beckett.  He is his best friend.

 

 Oh, these faces. Love.Them.

 

 



 

 

Happy Halloween!

 

Our Halloween week has been a little extra busy.  We have a few prayer requests.  Brant was sick with croup last week, and this week has been Beckett's turn. He had a high fever Friday and Saturday. We took him to get checked out on Saturday, and the doctor said it was a virus.  Fast forward a couple of days, and Beckett sounds awful and feels miserable.  So we head back to the pediatrician's office (for the third time in a week- leave it to the Laird's!) and, he managed to develop a severe ear infection, croup, and wheezing.  When his body is fighting an illness, his digestive system also slows down.  Before the fever even started, I could tell his digestion was slowing.  So we are flushing his cecostomy 2x a day and doing breathing treatments 4x a day, along with antibiotics for the infection and oral steroids for croup.  Please pray that he feels better soon and that all the medicines work.  Please also pray that Brant does not get sick again. Thanks so much for checking in! We hope ya'll are enjoying your fall, and have a Happy Halloween!
