A Caterpillar Halloween

Wells was the cutest caterpillar on the planet this Halloween. And, we had to celebrate a day early because his new cousin was born on Halloween (more to come in the next post.) We went to Trunk or Treat at our church and his uncle Al (pictured below) was the Oz.

As you can see, Wells thought he was pretty darn cute.

Charles Bridge DeJean

This fall, we showered one of my dearest friends, Baylie. She recently had her precious little boy, Bridge, but I wanted to make sure we captured this momentous occasion! Baylie looked like a super model during her entire pregnancy!

My sweet group of girlfriends!

Little monkey

Wells is now walking! Yes. He is mobile and into everything! We love it. On the first day that he walked, I caught him over in the red hutch, exploring. Too precious not to capture!

Bears and the Bass Girls

This fall, we went down to see a Baylor game. Wells met his sweet new friends, Ellie and Emmy Bass! Both girls are just dolls! It was a great game and we loved seeing all of the Bass crew!

My little punkin' at the best pumpkin patch EVER!

My mom and I took Wells to the Dallas Arboretum where they have the most fabulous pumpkin patch/display EVER! It was a pumpkin wonderland. Warning...very long post with lots of pictures.

Catching up...

Ok, I know it is been a while. Almost two months to be exact. I have a good explanation. I took a new job, Max graduated from MBA school and it has been quite the busy and fast few months around the Jodry household. So, here is to catching up in 2011 and a promise to be better in 2012.
