I really need to get better about posting more often so that I don't have to do a huge update all at one like this one! October was a very busy month for us. On every weekend that Josh wasn't working we were out of town. I figured instead of just writing about it I would do a picture update and let Lily tell you what all we did this past month!

| Hello Everyone! Let me take you on a journey through October and the beginning of November! |
|
|
 |
| We all hung out and called those Hogs! I spent all the games except for 1 at home with mom and dad bouncing in my Jumper and watching it on TV! In this photo I am chilling at the office with Grandma. |
 |
| Then we took off to Gore Oklahoma where we all went camping! It was chilly and at some points pretty rainy but we all had a wonderful time trick or treating at the camp ground and cooking on the grill. As you can see I spent most of the time lounging leisurely by the River looking at the pretty view! First camping experience was a great success! |
 |
| I got to attend my cousin Jimmy's 4th Birthday Party out at the Hackett Park. It was very pretty there and I decided that was where I would like to have my 1st Birthday. I got to swing in an actual swing for the first time and also got this cool hat from my great Aunt Linda who made it all by herself! |
 |
| I spent a lot of weekends hanging out with my other Great Aunt Lora and Uncle Ben. They usually visit me once a week while daddy is at work to keep mom company and of course to hang out with me!! |
 |
| Grandpa Roger also tried to teach me to drive! I could reach out and grab the wheel but my feet couldn't quite touch the peddles yet so I mostly just stared at everything and then drooled on it to mark my territory. I can't wait until I can actually drive this thing, but for now I will have to just settle for watching cousin Kaleb do it. |
 |
| I attended my first football game! I went to watch Uncle Trey & Bryce play for the Hackett Hornets. I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would. My favorite part was the cheerleaders! |
 |
| I had my 6 month check up at the Doctor. I had a great time rattling the paper and looking at myself in the mirror until they gave me my shots. |
 |
| At the end of the month I had my first Halloween. Family came over to my house and I watched them eat really good food but I preferred my bottle. I was a kitty kat and my neighbor and friend Rayley was a flower. She came by and showed me how she could stand on her own and I thought that was pretty impressive! I slept through most of the trick or treating, but woke up in time to hand out a few pieces of candy to some very strange looking people... |
 |
| I started out November hanging out with my Grandma and Grandpa. Mommy and Daddy went to the Auburn game with their friends the Marsh's. I stayed home and ate some good food which I am finally starting to like, however, formula is still #1 in this girls heart! | | |

The End
It has been a great past month! I cannot believe that Lily will be 7 months old in 13 days. I have already started making plans for her first birthday. I am excited about that because even though her baby shower was absolutely wonderful... I didn't get to help plan hardly any of it.
A few things are happening in the upcoming weeks. Of course Lily's first Thanksgiving ,
she has her follow up check up at Little Rock Children's Hospital for her neck. So we are using that as an excuse to go to Hot Springs and visit her other Grandparents (Josh's mom and step dad) since Little Rock is only 45 min. away, and then the next day after Thanksgiving we are going on our Annual trip to Branson with my side of the family to get in some Christmas Shopping, go see a show, and look at all the pretty Christmas lights!
I find myself almost not being able to wait to put up Christmas decorations and pull out the Christmas CD's. Even though Lily isn't quite big enough to be able to understand what is going on it is still exciting! That being said I am going to wait until after Thanksgiving but I plan on getting that tree up right after we get back from Branson!
I hope you all have wonderful Thanksgiving!
