What September?

Well, September came and has just about left with a bang! We started the month with the BIG project of putting up a fence around our yard. Unfortunately Garret has no one to help him and limited time, so it should finally be done this weekend. We'll post pictures...I think everyone needs to see Garret's hard work, plus it looks GOOD!
We had our first Delta Company "Roughneck Day" this past weekend for Garret's work and it was a huge success! We had over 200 people at the lake (state park) and everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves (which is huge, no one usually likes going to "mandatory fun" functions on the weekend). You should have seem me at Sam's Club trying to buy all the food and drinks though by myself with Jesse and just my car to load up...THANK GOODNESS the Fett's were coming to visit and timed their drive to meet me in Topeka where Sam's Club is! I must not have been thinking straight when I volunteered to get the food...not even half of it fit in my car! The other half had to go in the Fett's car and Mitch had to help steer the flatbed full of food and drinks in Sam's. I was a walking circus that day, seriously!
The weather is getting cooler every day...I'm not prepared for this winter thing! Our heat has even kicked in a couple nights already...what?!
This is what's new with Jesse:
-he waves (usually, not always still)
-he mimics what we say almost perfectly, intonations and all (don't know if we can count those as first words though)
-he is starting to "walk" back and forth between Garret and I...usually goes 3-5 steps before he crashes into our arms...those don't count as first steps yet...
-got his first bubble bath this month--was literally speechless he was so excited
-balls, drums, and books are his favorite toys
I've been bad about taking pictures this month...enjoy what I did take though. I'll write another update sooner next time, promise.

    Hey Mik,
    Baby Jesse is getting so big and he's so dang cute! Tell Garrett we give him two thumbs up on putting up the fence himself. Jess knows all about that. He put ours up himself too when we moved here. What a pain! But I have to say I was pretty impressed on how good ours turned out too. Sometimes these boys are good for something! ;-)
    Take care,
    Meghann
