Hobson's Fun Farm

My family came down this weekend to spend time with us. Amanda hasn't seen Austin since being in the NICU, so this was her first time being able to hold him outside of the hospital and the first time she's seen him awake. Bobby and my dad got a couple of things done in the basement. We need to really get going on getting the drywall up so the toy room can be moved downstairs!

Saturday, we ventured to Hobson's Fun Farm in Rockville with my parents, sister, the Vandiver's, and the Sebastian's. It was a beautiful Fall day and actually warmer than we all thought it was supposed to be. The kids all had fun and we were there for about 4 hours.

Natalie and Aubrey had a great time running around and getting dirty. Aubrey was exhausted toward the end and probably sick, but we didn't know that until Sunday. Austin slept most of the time and fussed a little when he wanted to eat, get a diaper change and just go to sleep. I wore him in the Moby wrap most of the time, but then eventually we put him in the carseat/stroller and he fell asleep. Not that this is a bad thing, but he seems to like to just lay down when he's tired instead of being held/rocked, which I think is probably partly from being in the NICU and only being held every 3-4 hours and then just resting in his bassinet while in there.

They have added a couple of new things. This was also Bobby's first time being able to jump on the big air pillow. The girls and I have been on them several times at different places, but Bobby has never been with us. He had fun, too!

At this point, we were trying to get a picture of the kids all looking, but Aubrey was knocking over her pumpkin and Natalie and Aubrey were fighting. Bobby then comments "Can't you just take that picture at home?" So, more pumpkin pictures in the future!

On Sunday, after church we had a quick photo taken for my Grandma who is making something for Christmas.  Bobby was super thrilled with having his picture taken! Austin was hungry and Aubrey was not cooperating, but later to find out, she was running a 101.4 fever, but went away with Tylenol and a long nap and has not returned...fingers crossed it was just a quick sickness and doesn't return because she has been acting normal!
