Thank You Rafal

I have to say that I am truly lucky to have such a wonderful husband who as I type this is upstairs putting Alek to bed. We have trained Alek to only fall asleep for naps and bedtime with the aide of mommy and daddy (BIG MISTAKE). Lately he has only wanted me to put him to bed and sometimes he takes a while to fall asleep and then I get tired and end up going to bed shortly after, getting nothing done that I had planned. Rafal is working full time and going to school full time, so he's pretty busy and tired by the time he gets home, but he still makes time to play with Alek, clean up dinner, and maybe relax a little. I really appreciate all that he does to help me out. He is a wonderful husband and father and I couldn't ask for anyone better. Thanks honey, I love you and appreciate all you do.

Picking Pumpkins

My family took a trip to the pumpkin patch in Santaquin to pick out our Halloween pumpkins. We rode in a wagon out to the pumpkin patch and then had a great time trying to find the perfect pumpkin. Alek went right for the big pumpkin, but when he realized he couldn't lift it up, he found one that was just right. He loved picking up the pumpkins and kept changing his mind as to which one he wanted to bring home. We had a great time and were able to find some pumpkins. This year Alek didn't try to eat his pumpkin, but he still thinks that it's a ball.
