October was a busy month ... Abby turned 6 months old, Abby's first Halloween, we went to ACU Homecoming, Nathan had a hunting trip and I had a show at work - which always makes things extra crazy!
Abby is now 6 months old ... gosh I can't believe it. It makes me a little sad that she is getting so big, but it is exciting all the new things she can do! Like right now while I am blogging she is holding her own bottle. Greatness! I love this new skill ... it gives me a whole new freedom. She is such a good girl, we really are enjoying every minute. Next week we go to the doctor for 6 month shots and then we talk about starting solids. She has already been enjoying rice cereal for a couple of months, but next week is when we start fruits and veggies ... I am sure that will be messy!
ACU Homecoming was fun! It was so nice to see all of our friends and all their kids. It is so funny to think all of us have kids now. Just seems like yesterday we were crazy college kids ... who would have thought we would grow up and be parents?! We saw a lot of old faces, but there were a lot of people we didn't see.
Halloween was fairly uneventful ... we didn't have as many trick-or-treaters this year as usual. However, I was thankful that we didn't have all the old teenagers who don't dress up - don't you just hate that? Abby was a bumble bee ... pretty cute. She had the totally humiliated look on her face the whole time. It was funny! On Halloween our friends Rob & Rachel came over for a visit. It was our first time to meet little Nash - he is sooo cute! They just moved back to Texas this week and we are very excited about that! Abby was a total show off - blowing bubbles and being silly while Nash was just chillin' sitting quietly.
Well here is what you came for ... the pictures

love the pictures. I hear you on the bottle holding- I can remember how great it was when Hattie learned that trick!!!
love the pics...she is getting so big. how are you doing? it has been so long!
ADORABLE! I can't wait for my guys to be holding their own bottles!! See you guys soon!!
We really wanted to go to Homecoming, but it just didn't work out this year. And I'm sad that we'll miss you at Thanksgiving. But it sounds like everything is going well for your sweet family. Hope to see you soon.

I cannot believe how big Abby has gotten. And, I am so glad that you all got a kick out the camo hat with the bow that I sent! I figured Nate would love it...Kimmie told me that she saw you all in Abilene over homecoming. It is pretty crazy that we call ourselves parents...but they do say that stupid people have kids, and I think we are a few steps above that!? Well, some of us at least...ha!
Abby is really adorable, and every stage is wonderful and exciting. Caroline will be 16 months this coming week, and she is everywhere...and talking! I do miss her being Abby's age, because she no longer wants to be held like a baby.
You all take care, and have a wonderful Holiday, and FIRST Christmas! It is so fun to play Santa...just dont go crazy like we have!
Also, tell Rob HI for me...crazy cat!
Love,
Amy (LeBus) Jackson
